Answer:

56 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

Let the leaning tower's be h meters tall, when it was originally built.

We can see from our attachment that the side with length 55.86 meters is hypotenuse and h is adjacent side for 4 degree angle.

Since we know that cosine relates the adjacent and hypotenuse of a right triangle.

\text{Cos}=\frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

Upon substituting our given values we will get,

\text{Cos (4)}=\frac{55.86}{h}

h=\frac{55.86}{\text{Cos (4)}}

h=\frac{55.86}{0.99756405026}

h=55.996\approx 56                      

Therefore, the leaning tower was approximately 56 meters, when it was originally built.

The formula for area is pi x r^2 (pi times radius squared) so, for number 7 youre given the radius or "r", which is half the length of the inside of the cirlce. On a calculator: you would do 8 times 8 (8^2) because that's the radius squared and then you should get 64 and times 64 by 3.14 or use the pi button depending on what your teacher prefers you to use. 

When you're given diameter or "d" which represents the is equal to the radius times 2. So, for example, number 8 the diameter is 26 so, the radius is 13. Use the formula for area just like in number 7 to find the area of this circle. 

Make sure you pay attention to what information youre given (whether its "d", Diameter, "r" or radius. Use those two lists of steps for solving numbers 7 through 12. 

For numbers 13-15:
use the number (22/7) instead of 3.14 or the pi button on your calculator and do the same steps!!!!!

Let me know if you still need help after this:) happy math solving!

In a circle with a diameter of 25.2 ft, an arc is intercepted by a central angle of 168º.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

36.93\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the circumference of the circle

The circumference is equal to

C=\pi D

we have

D=25.2\ ft

substitute

C=25.2\pi\ ft

step 2

we know that

The circumference of a circle subtends a central angle of 360 degrees

so

using proportion

Find out the arc length by a central angle of 168 degrees

\frac{25.2\pi}{360}=\frac{x}{168}\\\\x=25.2\pi*168/360\\\\x=(25.2*3.14)*168/360\\\\x=36.93\ ft
