Method 1: In order to find out the area of an octagon with a radius of 4 feet, we have to split the whole figure into 8 equal isosceles triangles.
Therefore, 
We will find out the area of one triangle and multiply the area with 8 to, figure out the area of the whole octagon there are 8 similar triangles and all of them will have the same area.

Method 2: From method 1, it would take time as there are too much of calculation, therefore we would go for the shortcut using the formula:

Area = 2√2 × r²

where r<span> is the radius of the octagon.
Substituting the values,
We get:
             </span>Area = 2√2 × 4²
             Area = 2√2 × 16
             Area = 2× 1.41 × 16 
             Area = 2.828 × 16 
            Area = 45.25

Rounded to the nearest tenth:

Area = 45.3 ft²

Answer:

5√3 = b

5 = d

10√3 = a

15 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin60° = opp/hyp

sin60° = b/10

10sin60° = b

5√3 = b

Cos60° = adj/hyp

Cos60° = d/10

10Cos60° = d

5 = d

Sin30° = opp/hyp

Sin30° = 5√3/a

a = 5√3/Sin30°

a = 10√3

Tan30° = opp/adj

Tan30° = 5√3/c

c = 5√3/tan30°

c = 15

A line passes through the point (2, 10) and has a y-intercept of 4. What is the equation of the line? Help me please
joja [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

If it's a straight line the use formula

y = mx + c

m= gradient of line

c = y-intercept

we know that y-intercept is 4 so coordinate is

(0,4)

Equation also passes (2,10)

Use both coordinate to find gradient

m= vertical distance / horizontal distance

= (10-4) / (2-0)

= 3

y = 3x + 4
