Answer:

  ((160/3)π + 16√3) in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Together with the radii of 8 inches, the 8-inch chord creates an equilateral triangle with a central angle of 60°, or π/3 radians.

In problem 1, you found the area of the smaller segment to be ...

  A = (1/2)r²·(θ -sin(θ))

For θ = π/3 and r = 8 in, this is (1/2)(8 in)²(π/3 -(√3)/2) = ((32/3)π -16√3) in².

The remaining segment of the circle is the area of the circle less this amount, so is ...

  π·(8 in)² -(32/3π -16√3) in² = (160/3π +16√3) in² . . . . larger segment area

Find an equation of the circle that has center (-1,2) and passes through (5,-4).

General equation for a circle
(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²
with (a,b) represents the center, (x,y) represents one of the points lie on the circle, and r represents the radius

Determine r² by substituting the points into the general equation
(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²
(5 - (-1))² + (-4 - 2)² = r²
(5 + 1)² + (-6)² = r²
6² + 36 = r²
36 + 36 = r²
72 = r²

Determine the equation of the circle
(x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²
(x - (-1))² + (y - 2)² = 72
(x + 1)² + (y - 2)² = 72 (This is the equation of the circle)

Well it depends what 'v' stands for

well all you need to do is replace the v with the number it stands for. For example if v=2 then the expression would be 4.2(2) - 5 - 6.5(2)
Then you use the order of operations. first you multiply

8.4 - 5 - 13

then you subtract from left to right 

8.4 - 5 = 3.4

3.4 - 13 =  -13 - 3.4 = -9.4

So IF v=2 (I used 2 as an example, V might not = 2 in your case) then the
answer will be -9.4  

I hope this helped you :3
