Answer:

Part 1) The ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle TQR is $\frac{4}{25}$

Part 2) The ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle QOP is $\frac{4}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) Find the ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle TQR

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor

The scale factor is equal to

TS/TR

substitute the values

6/(6+9)

6/15=2/5

step 2

Find the ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle TQR

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

$(\frac{2}{5})^{2}=\frac{4}{25}$

Part 2) Find the ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle QOP

step 1

Find the scale factor

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal to the scale factor

The scale factor is equal to

TS/QP

substitute the values

6/9

6/9=2/3

step 2

Find the ratio of the areas of triangle TOS to triangle QOP

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

$(\frac{2}{3})^{2}=\frac{4}{9}$

A rectangular tank that is 2048 ft cubed with a square base and open top is to be constructed of sheet steel of a given thicknes

ira [324]

Answer:

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft Therefore,dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the volume of the tank as, 2048 cubic feet.

Form minimum weight, the surface area must be minimum.

Let the height be h and the lengths be x

the volume will be: V=x²h then substitute the value of volume, we have

2048=hx²

hence

h=2048/x²

Since the amount of material used is directly proportional to the surface area, then the material needs to be minimized by minimizing the surface area.

The surface area of the box described is

A=x²+4xh

Then substitute h into the Area equation we have

A= x² + 4x(2048/x²)

A= x² + 8192/x

We want to minimize

dA/dx = -8192/x² + 2 x= 0 for max or min

when dA/dx=0

dA/dx= 2x-8192/x²=0

2x=8192/x²

Hence

2x³=8192

x³=4096

x=₃√(4096)

X=16ft

Then h=2048/x²

h=2048/16²

h=8ft

The box should have base 16ft by 16ft and height 8ft

Hence the dimensions are 16 ft by 16 ft by 8 ft

Calculate the area of the shaded sector. 11.73 11.2 11.4 11.83

laiz [17]

The formula for the area of a circle is

A=πr²
plug in the data we know
A=π4²
A=16π

Since we only we need to find the area of the shaded section, we need to twerk this equation a bit. (remember that the shaded section is 84/360 of the original circle.)

A=84/360*16π
A=11.728
A=11.73 units²

answer: A=11.73 units²

3 and 4 I need help with so confusing

nadya68 [22]

Answer: 3. (3,-3) and 4. (-3,4)

Step-by-step explanation: Number 4 is self explanatory of what they are and number 3, you need to figure out what minus 6 equals -3 and that happens to be 3.
