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 school is arranging a field trip to the zoo. The school spends 635.85 dollars on passes for 43 students and 2 teachers. The sc
aalyn [17]

Answer:

$22.67

Step-by-step explanation:

The school spends 635.85 dollars on passes for 43 students and 2 teachers, then the school spends

\$635.85 :(43+2)=\$14.13 per person.

The school also spends 367.22 dollars on lunch for just the students, so the school spends

\$367.22 :43=\$8.54 per person.

In total, a pass and lunch for each student was spent

\$14.13+\$8.54=\$22.67

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

h=1.27 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

V=πr^2h

Plugin the values and solve

36=π(3)^2h

36/9π=h

h=1.27323954

How do I find ac in this problem
suter [353]

7 / x+4 = 5/x+1 =


5x+20 = 7x+7 =

20=2x+7

13=2x

x=13/2 = 6.5

6.5+4 = 10.5

6.5+1 =7.5

10.5+7.5 = 18

length of AC = 18
