Estimate the perimeter of the figure to the nearest whole number.

Answer:

The perimeter (to the nearest integer) is 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The upper half of this figure is a triangle with height 3 and base 6.  If we divide this vertically we get two congruent triangles of height 3 and base 3.  Using the Pythagorean Theorem we find the length of the diagonal of one of these small triangles:  (diagonal)^2 = 3^2 + 3^2, or (diagonal)^2 = 2*3^2.

Therefore the diagonal length is (diagonal) = 3√2, and thus the total length of the uppermost two sides of this figure is 6√2.

The lower half of the figure has the shape of a trapezoid.  Its base is 4.  Both to the left and to the right of the vertical centerline of this trapezoid is a triangle of base 1 and height 3; we need to find the length of the diagonal of one such triangle.  Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we get

(diagonal)^2 = 1^2 + 3^2, or 1 + 9, or 10.  Thus, the length of each diagonal is √10, and so two diagonals comes to 2√10.

Then the perimeter consists of the sum 2√10 + 4 + 6√2.

which, when done on a calculator, comes to 9.48.  We must round this off to the nearest whole number, obtaining the final result 9.

Is 0.6 repeating greater than 0.25
lesya [120]

Answer:

Yes!

Step-by-step explanation:

Change the decimals into fractions

0.6 repeating would be 2/3

0.5 would be 1/2

2/3 and 1/2 is respectively 4/6 and 3/6 so 2/3 is greater.

Hope this helped!!! :D
