Answer:
18.84 estimated, 6π exactly
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi!
<u>The formula for finding the circumference of a circle is 2πr:</u>
In that case, all we need to do <em>first </em>is to divide the diameter by 2, so we can substitute that into the equation.
6 ÷ 2 = 3
So we have 2π × 3 to solve.
2π × 3 = 6π
We can estimate the circumference by multiplying by 3.14.
6 × 3.14 = 18.84
(actually multiplying by π gives 18.849... which is pretty close!)
Thus, the circumference is .
Hope this helps!

Answer: 19 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the next trigonometric function.
Tan α = opposite side / adjacent side
Where α is the angle of depression of the dog, the opposite side (16) is Ted's eye level above the ground, and the adjacent side (x) is the distance between the dog and the barn door.
Replacing with the values given:
tan40 = 16/x
Solving for x
x =16/tan40
x= 19 ft
