Answer:

The length of segment joining the endpoints of the arc is 8\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

In the triangle ABC

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

AC=BC -----> is the radius of the circle  

m

m ----> given problem (central angle)

Initially the triangle ABC is an isosceles triangle

Remember that

the sum of the internal angles of triangle must be equal to 180\°

For this particular case, the isosceles triangle ABC becomes an equilateral triangle, as the three angles are equal to 60\°

The equilateral triangle has three equal sides and tree equal angles

so

AC=BC=AB

Hence

The length of segment joining the endpoints of the arc is 8\ in

Given the radius, circumference can be solved by the equation, C = 2πr. The circumference of the circle above is C = 2π(8 in) = 16<span>π in. To solve for the length of the segment joining the arc is the circumference times the ratio of central angle and 360 degrees.

                          Length of the segment = (16</span>π in)(60/360) = 8/3 <span>π in

Thus, the length of the segment is approximately 8.36 in. </span>

A graph titled Cost of a Lunch in a School's Cafeteria has Days since school started on the x-axis and cost of lunch (dollars) o
Rufina [12.5K]

The true statement about the graph's slope is (c) Its slope is zero.

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

From the question, we have:

A horizontal line is at y = 2.5.

The horizontal line implies that the cost of lunch do not change

Horizontal lines have a slope of 0

Hence, the true statement about the graph's slope is (c) Its slope is zero.

How much interest will Brian earn on $875 in his savings account after 3 months if the annual interest rate is 5.5%?
eduard

The interest that Brain would receive is $12.03.

<h3>How much interest would Brain receive?</h3>

The interest received is a function of the amount saved, interest time and the length of time the money was saved.

Interest = amount saved x number of months x (annual interest rate / 12)

$875 x 3 x (0.055 / 12) = $12.03
