Given: △ABC, m∠A=60°,
1 answer:
Answer:
- perimeter = 4.5(3+√3 +√6) ≈ 32.3169
- area = 10.125(3+√3) ≈ 47.9120
Step-by-step explanation:
Drawing an altitude (BD) from B to AC can be very helpful. It divides this triangle into two that have side ratios you recognize.
A 30°-60°-90° triangle has side ratios 1 : √3 : 2, and a 45°-45°-90° triangle has side ratios 1 : 1 : √2.
__
The given side of 9 is the longest side of a 30-60-90 triangle, and the side AD is the shortest, so is 1/2 of 9, or 4.5. Side BD is the intermediate length of that triangle, so is 4.5√3.
The other leg of triangle BDC is the same length, so DC = 4.5√3. The hypotenuse of that triangle, BC, is √2 times that, or 4.5√6.
__
Now, we know the three sides are 9, (4.5+4.5√3), and 4.5√6. The perimeter is the sum of these, or ...
P = 9 + 4.5 + 4.5√3 + 4.5√6
P = 4.5(3 +√3 +√6) ≈ 32.3169
__
The area is given by the formula ...
A = 1/2bh
where the base length (b) is 4.5(1+√3), and the height is 4.5√3. Putting these values into the formula gives ...
A = 1/2(4.5(1+√3))(4.5√3)
A = 10.125(3+√3) ≈ 47.9120

For this case we propose a rule of three:
25 ------------> 100%
2 --------------> x
Where the variable "x" represents the percentage equivalent to 2 doctors.
Thus, 2 doctors represent 8% of 25
Answer:
2 doctors represent 8% of 25
