So pythagrorean theorem is the ideal way and easiest way to solve this
a^2+b^2=c^2
8.5^2+11^2=x^2
72.25+121=193.25
square root of 193.25=13.9014 or 13.9 in
9.5^2+15^2=x^2
90.25+225=315.25
square root of 315.25=17.7553 or 17.8 ft
Move over 2 decimal places
This would be 38.4%
Using theorem about secant segments we can write,
AB*AH=AG*AC
AC=4,
CG=6
AG=AC+CG=4+6=10
AH=3
AB= AH+HB=AH+x=3+x
(3+x)*3=10*4
9+3x=40
3x=40-9
3x=31
x=31/3≈10.3
HB≈10.3
EG=HB/2 (as radius and diameter)
EG=10.3/2≈5.2
The money will be triple after 15 years and 303 days.
What is compound interest?
Compound interest, also known as interest on principal and interest, is the practice of adding interest to the principal amount of a loan or deposit.
Given:
Principle (P) = $10,000
The amount will be triple.
So, Amount (A) = $30,000
Rate (r) = 7% = 0.07
The interest is compounded quarterly.
n = 4
We have to find the value of t.
Let,

Apply logarithm on both sides,

Hence, the money will be triple after 15 years and 303 days.
