The area of the trapezoid is calculated through the equation,
A = 0.5(b₁ + b₂)h
where b₁ and b₂ are the bases and h is the height. Substituting the known values from the given,
A = 0.5(9.6 + 25)(90) = 1557 mi²
Therefore, the approximate area of the country is 1557 mi².
Lets plug in the answer choices and see which one works
A. x = -6
| -6 | < 3
6 < 3
False, so A is not the answer
B. x = -5
| -5 | < 3
5 < 3
False, so B isn't the answer
C. x = -1
| -1 | < 3
1 < 3
True, so C is the answer.
But lets just check D to make sure C is the answer.
D. x = 2
| 2 | < 3
2 < 3
False, so D isn't the answer either.
C is your answer :)
Answer:
Exact area: 39.2π cm²
Approximate area: 123.2 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a circle is πr².
A full circle can be thought of as a sector of a circle with 360° of central angle. For a sector of a circle with a central angle of n°, multiply the area of the circle by the fraction n°/360°.
The formula for the area of a sector of circle with central angle n° and radius r is
A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²
Here we have n = 72; r = 14 cm
A = (n°)/(360°) × πr²
A = (72°)/(360°) × π × (14 cm)²
A = 39.2π cm² = 123.2 cm²
Answer:
b = 55
d = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
Part B:
1. We can see that m∠C (25 degrees), the angle with 100 degrees, and ∠B are adjacent angles that add up to 180 degrees.
- This means that b + 25 + 100 = 180
2. (Solving equation above)
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
Step 2: Subtract 125 from both sides.
Therefore, b = 55.
Part D:
1. The exterior angle theorem states that the exterior angle of a triangle is congruent to the sum of the two opposing interior angles.
- This means that 110 = d + 55
2. (Solving)
Step 1: Subtract 55 from both sides.
Therefore, d = 55.
