Answer: He is not correct.

Steps:

Let x1 and x2 be the first and second number, respectively.

x_2 = \frac{5}{4}x_1\\\frac{4}{5}x_2 =x_1

In words, if the second is 125%, or 5/4 of the first number (first equation),

then the first is 4/5 of the second, which is 0.8 or 80%.

If you bent length 44 cm is bent into a circle find the radius of the circle?If the same wire is bent into the shape of a square
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

r = 7 cm; l = 11cm

The circle encloses more area than the square

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Radius of circle

The formula for the circumference of a circle is

A = 2πr

r = A/(2π)

Data:

C = 44 in

Calculation:

r = 44/(2 × 22/7)

   = 44/2 × 7/22

   =   2/2 × 7

   = 7 in

(b) Side of square

P = 4l

l =   P/4

  = 44/4

  = 11 in

(c) Areas

(i) Circle

A = πr²

  = 22/7 ×   7²

  = 22/7 × 49

  = 22    ×   7

  = 154 cm²

(ii) Square

A = l²

  = 11²

  = 121 cm²

The circle encloses more area than the square.

JKLM is a parallelogram and is split into 4 equal parts. So the lines are equal and opposite angles are equal too.
3. NM is 2, because KN=NM, and KN is 2
4. KM is 4, if we add KN and NM, we’ll do 2+2 which is 4
