Solve a,b,c,d and e.​
Westkost [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

 428721

Place of 2's 10s and 10,000s

Therefore its value is 20 and 20,000

Product of the place value = 20 x 20,000 = 4,00,000

b)

37,20,861

Place of 7 is 1,00,000

Therefore the place value is 7,00,000

c)

Greatest 7 digit number is 99,99,999

Adding 1 to it = 99,99,999 + 1 = 1,00,00,000

d)

85642 = 80000 + 5000 + 600 + 40 +2

e)

round off 85642  to nearest thousand = 86,000

The floor of a gazebo is in the shape of a regular octagon. The perimeter of the floor is 72 feet. The distance from the center
Katyanochek1 [597]
The length of one side of the octagon is given by:
 L = 72/8

L = 9
 Then, the apothem can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem in the following way:
 11.8 ^ 2 = (9/2) ^ 2 + a ^ 2

 Clearing to have:
 a ^ 2 = 11.8 ^ 2 - (9/2) ^ 2
 a = \sqrt{11.8 ^ 2 - (9/2) ^ 2}
 a = 10.91
 Then, the area is given by:
 A = (8) * (1/2) * (L) * (a)

 Where,
 L: length of the octagon sides
 a: apotema
 Substituting values:
 A = (8) * (1/2) * (9) * (10.91)

A = 392.76 feet ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the approximate length of the apothem is:
 
a = 10.91 feet
 
The approximate area of the floor of the gazebo is:
 
A = 392.76 feet ^ 2
