Like XZ divides the cord YV into two congruent parts (YW=5.27 cm=WV), this segment XZ must be perpendicular to the segment YV, then the angle XWY in triangle XWY is a right angle (90°) and the triangle XWY is a right angle.

We can apply the trigonometric ratios in triangle XWY:
Hypotenure: XY
sin 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°)/(hypothenuse)
sin 44°=YW/XY
sin 44°=(5.27 cm)/XY
Solving for XY. Cross multiplication:
sin44° XY=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by sin 44°:
sin 44° XY / sin 44° = (5.27 cm)/sin 44°
XY=(5.27/sin 44°) cm
XY=(5.27/0.694658370) cm
XY=7.586462929 cm

This value XY is the radius of the circle, then:
XZ=XY→XZ=7.586462969 cm

tan 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°) / (Adjacent leg to 44°)
tan 44°=YW/XW
tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/XW
Solving for XW. Cross multiplication:
tan 44° XW=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by tan 44°:
tan 44° XW / tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/tan 44°
XW=(5.27/tan 44°) cm
XW=(5.27/0.965688775) cm
XW=5.457244753 cm

WZ=XZ-XW
WZ=7.586462969 cm-5.457244753 cm
WZ=2.129218216 cm
Rounded to 2 decimal places:
WZ=2.13 cm

Answer: The <span>measurement is closest to the measure of segment WZ is
2.13 cm</span>

Look at mina's work below 10 7/12 - 9/12 = (10/12 + 7/12) - 9/12 = 17/12 - 9/12 = 8/12 is mina's solution reasonable. Explain
RSB [31]
10 7/12 - 9/12=(10/12+7/12)-9/12=17/12-9/12=8/12

127/12-9/12

Nope. Her solution doesn't seem reasonable. In order to subtract 9/12 from 10 7/12 you must convert 10 7/12 to an improper fraction. You should then have 127/12 where she has 10/12.

Hope this helps! =)

Answer:

I think it goes like this : 20:4=5 so there's five monsters in the room

Step-by-step explanation:

if that's the case of this question it should go like this:

9(rooms)×5(monsters per room)= 45 monsters

30(monsters):5(monsters per room)=6 rooms

13(rooms)×5(monsters per room)=65 monsters

35(monsters):5(monsters per room)=7 rooms

I hope you do well in your assignment.

I hope I helped at least a little!
