My triangle solver says EF ≈ 7.5 ft.

_____
The law of cosines is usually used for this.

EF^2 = DE^2 +DF^2 -2*DE*DF*cos(D)
.. = 6^2 +11^2 -2*6*11*cos(40°)
.. ≈ 55.88

EF ≈ √55.88 ≈ 7.5 . . . ft

What is the radius of the circle shown below? Round to the nearest whole number

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The circle has a radius of 41 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Circles

There are certain relations in a circle that help us to identify and calculate some of its characteristics.

The figure shows a circle with three parameters which will lead us to determine its radius. First, we have a chord that measures 80 inches. Since it doesn't go through the center of the circle, it's not the diameter.

But we also have the distance from the center to the chord, making a right angle with it. This makes the chord be divided into two equal parts of 40 inches each.

Now we form a right triangle joining the center to one of the extremes of the chord. The hypotenuse of this triangle is the required radius of the circle. Like every right triangle, this must comply with Pithagora's theorem:

$r^2=x^2+y^2$

where r is the hypotenuse and x, y are the legs or the smaller sides of the triangle. We have determined that x=9, y=40 (or vice-versa, it doesn't matter). Therefore

$r^2=9^2+40^2=1681$

Solving for r

$r=\sqrt{1681}=41\ inches$

The circle has a radius of 41 inches

Is the following an example of simple random, cluster, systematic or convenience sampling?

yanalaym [24]

The following is an example of a cluster sampling.

Cluster sampling is a sampling technique used when "natural" but relatively heterogeneous groupings are evident in a statistical population. It is often used in marketing research. In this technique, the total population is divided into these groups (or clusters) and a simple randomsample of the groups is selected.
