I don’t know how to use the triangle area to calculate the area of the inscribed polygons
Trava [24]

First of all, let's recall the area of a triangle, knowing its base (b) and height (h):

A = \cfrac{bh}{2}

The exercise is showing you that, if you inscribe a polynomial with more and more side, the area of the polynomial will approximate the area of the circle better and better (you can see youself that the polygon is "filling" the circle more and more as the number of sides increase).

Now, the second column tells you the area of each of the triangles the polygon is split into. So, we can see that the first polygon is split into 3 triangles, each of them having base 1.73 and height 0.5.

So, the area of each triangle is

A = \cfrac{1.73 \cdot 0.5}{2} = 0.4325

There are three of these triangles, so the area of the whole polygon is

A = 0.4325 \cdot 3 = 1.2975

In the second case, you have six triangles, each with base 1 and height 0.87. So, the whole area is

A = 6 \cdot \cfrac{1\cdot 0.87}{2} = 0.87 \cdot 3 = 2.61

Finally, in the last case you have 8 triangles, each with base 0.77 and height 0.92. So, the whole area is

A = 8 \cdot \cfrac{0.77\cdot 0.92}{2} = 0.77\cdot 0.92 \cdot 4 = 2.8336

Find the area of the irregular shape. Round to the nearest tenth.
svp [43]
Given: 
Irregular Shape: 
Semi-circle and rectangle:

Area of a rectangle = l * w
Area of a semi-circle = (π r²)/2

Area of rectangle = 8 cm * 5 cm = 40cm²
Area of a semi-circle = (3.14 (4²))/2 = (3.14*16)/2 = 50.24/2 = 25.12cm²
4² is taken from diameter of 8cm divided by 2 to get the radius.

Total area = 40 cm² + 25.12 cm² = 65.12 cm²

"What is the probability of drawing a jack or queen from a standard deck of cards?"
Natasha2012 [34]
Well, there are 52 cards in a deck, with 4 suits. there is a Jack and queen per suit, so that is a total of 8 jacks and queens in the deck. that probability looks like 8:52 as a ratio, or 2:13 simplified. so, you are likely to draw a Jack or queen 8 out of 52 times, or 2 out of 13 times
