The larger of 2 numbers is 12 more than the smaller. the sum 84. find the numbers

1 answer:

8 0

Let the smaller number be x.

Larger number = 12 + x

Sum = 84

x + 12 + x = 84

2x + 12 = 84

2x = 72

x = 36

Hence, the numbers are 36 and 48.

What is the area of the shaded portion of the circle?

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

The first option is the correct one, the area of the shaded portion of the circle is

[/tex](5 \pi -11.6)ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us first consider the triangle + the shadow.

The full area of the circle is the radius squared times pi, so

A= $(5 ft)^2 \cdot \pi \\25 ft^2 \cdot \pi$

Since $\frac{72^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}=\frac{1}{5}$ , the area of the triangle + the shaded area is one fifth of the area of the whole circle, thus

$A_1=\frac{1}{5}25 ft^2 \cdot \pi\\ =5 ft^2 \cdot \pi$

If we want to know the area of the shaded part of the circle, we must subtract the area of the triangle from $A_1$ .

The area of the triangle is given by

$A_{triangle}=\frac{1}{2}\cdot (2.9+2.9)ft \cdot 4 ft\\= 11.6 ft^2$

Thus the area of the shaded portion of the circle is

$A_1-A_{triangle}=5 \pi ft^2-11.6ft^2\\= (5 \pi -11.6)ft^2$
