Given:

The wheel chair ramp is parallel to the ramp.

To find:

The value of x and y.

Solution:

If two lines are parallel, then the alternate interior angles are congruent.

4x° + 6y° = 86° --------- (1)

Similarly,

5x° + 6y° = 94°

Subtract 5x° from both sides.

5x° + 6y° - 5x° = 94° - 5x°

6y° = 94° - 5x° --------- (2)

Substitute (2) in (1).

4x° + 94° - 5x° = 86°

94° - x° = 86°

Subract 94° on both sides.

94° - x° - 94° = 86° - 94°

- x° = 86° - 94°

- x° = -8°

Multiply by -1 on both sides, we get

x = 8

Substitute x = 8 in (2).

6y° = 94° - 5(8)°

6y° = 54°

Divide by 6 on both sides, we get

y = 6

The value of x is 8 and y is 6.

Point P is the center of the circle below. What is the exact area
Ber [7]

Answer:

192π unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Radius = 24

Area of circle = πr²

Area = π*24²

Area = 576π in²

The Shaded area is 120°

Entire Circumference = 360°

Hence, shaded area = 120°/ 360° = 1/ 3 of the area

1/3 * 576π in²

= 192π unit²

The 3-D shape would be created if the figure was rotated around the x-axis is a cone

<h3>What are 3-D shapes?</h3>

3-D shapes (short form of 3-Dimensional shapes) are shapes that have width, length and height

<h3>How to determine the 3-D shape?</h3>

The coordinates are given as:

(0, 0), (-3, -4) and (-3, 0)

When the above coordinates are plotted on a coordinate plane and the points are connected;

We can see that the points form a right-triangle

See attachment for the shape

As a general rule

Rotating a right-triangle across the x-axis would form a cone

Hence, the 3-D shape would be created if the figure was rotated around the x-axis is a cone
