Answer: 12.56 inches

Step-by-step explanation: First, when know the following:

A clock is a circle, so the total movement, from 12 to 12 is 360° or 2π.

It is also know that a circle circunference (The total size of the circle on a straight line) is 2π * Radius

The minute hand does a circle on its travel, that circle radius is equal to 6 inches.

The movement from 12 to 4 is a third (4/12 = 1/3). Knowing this:

120° = (1/3) * 360° = (1/3) * 2π = (2/3) * π

So the travel from 12 to 4 is (2/3)π

To know the distance on inches, we multiply the distance on radians per the radius.

Total distance = 6 * (2/3)π

Total distance = 4π inches

Total distance = 12.56 inches

need help with error analysis assingment, im in high school and ive always struggled with math alot pls help
valina [46]

Given

A) The angles A and B are supplementary.

If,

\begin{gathered} \angle A=x+6 \\ \angle B=7x+30 \end{gathered}

B) The figure,

To find

A) The value of x.

B) The value of x.

Explanation:

A) It is given that,

Angle A and angle B are supplementary.

Then,

\angle A+\angle B=180\degree

Hence, the error is in the statement,

Since the angles are supplementary, when added together they equal 90.

As, the correct answer is when added together they equal 180.

That implies,

\begin{gathered} x+6+7x+30=180 \\ 8x+36=180 \\ 8x=180-36 \\ 8x=144 \\ x=\frac{144}{8} \\ x=18\degree \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of x is 18 degrees.

B) It is given that,

From, the figure the given angles are interior angles.

Also, the interior angles on the same side of the transversal is supplementary.

Which means when you add them they equal 180.

Hence, the error is in the statement,

Since the angles are adjacent, they are complementary angles.

Which means when you add them they equal 180.

As, the angles are interior angles on the same side of the transversal.

Also,

\begin{gathered} 64+x=180 \\ x=180-64 \\ x=116\degree \end{gathered}

Hence, the value of x is 116 degrees.

Find the value of x that makes m ∥ n.
kozerog [31]

<u>Given</u>:

The measures of the alternate exterior angles are (180 - x)° and x°

We need to determine the value x that makes m ║ n

<u>Value of x:</u>

We know that the measures of alternate exterior angles are equal.

Thus, we have;

180-x=x

Adding both sides of the equation by x, we have;

180-x+x=x+x

Simplifying, we get;

180=2x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we have;

90=x

Thus, the value of x is 90.

Hence, the value x = 90 makes the alternate exterior angles congruent and hence the line m is parallel to n.
