Answer:

300 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you have to consider the geometric shapes you could use in order to represent the mainsail. A sail is typically represented in the way of a rhombus, which makes sense considering they are telling you that you have to decompose the shape into rectangles and triangles.

Such triangle can have the following dimensions:

Triangle (Dimensions)

Base = 4ft

Height = 15ft

On the other hand, the rectangle can have the following dimensions:

Rectangle (Dimensions)

15 ft x 20ft

To get the area of the mainsail, you need to add up the sum of the areas of each individual part.

Obtaining each area:

Rectangle: 15x20 = 300ft²

Triangle #1: 1/2(4*5) = 30ft²

Triangle #2: 1/2(4*5) = 30ft²

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a radius of 9.2 cm, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic centimeter?
NARA [144]

Answer:

volume of the hemisphere   ≈1577.5 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the formula for calculating the volume of a hemisphere, we will follow the steps below:

write the formula for calculating the volume of a hemisphere.

volume of a hemisphere = volume of a sphere ÷2

                                        = \frac{4}{3}πr³   ÷   2

                                        =\frac{2}{3} πr³

WHERE r is the radius

from the question given, radius= 9.2 cm  

π is a constant and is ≈ 3.14

we can now proceed to insert the values into the equation

volume of a hemisphere =  \frac{2}{3} πr³

                                          = \frac{2}{3} × 3.14 ×9.2³

                                           = \frac{2}{3} × 3.14 ×753.571

                                          ≈1577.5 cm³   to the nearest tenth of cubic centimeter

volume of the hemisphere   ≈1577.5 cm³
