Join the centre O to the chord (let it be MN) & let OH be the perpendicular to the chord

OH bisects MN into 2 equal parts (each one is x/2)
OMH is a right triangle with one side =8, the second leg =x/2 & the hypotenuse = 12 (Radius)
Apply Pythagoras:

12² = 8² +(x/2)² ==>144=64 + x²/4 ==> x²=4(144-64) =320

x²=320==> x=√320 =17.88 ≈17.9

If a dart board was thrown randomly at the dartboard shown below, what is the probability that it will land in the bull’s-eye? T

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

Correct option: C -> 2%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this probability we just need to divide the area of the bull's-eye circle by the total area of the outer circle.

The area of a circle is given by the equation:

$area = \pi * radius^2$

The outer radius is 14 cm, so:

$outer\ area = \pi * 14^2 = 196\pi\ cm^2$

The inner radius is 2 cm, so:

$inner\ area = \pi * 2^2 = 4\pi\ cm^2$

So the probability is:

$inner\ area / outer\ area = 4\pi / 196\pi = 0.02 = 2\%$

Correct option: C
