can you transform the square shown below into pieces that when put together form five small equal squares whose total area shall

be equal to the square down below with exactly four cuts?

How about this (see attached image):

Use the four cuts as shown in the image (red lines).

Then assemble 5 equal squares by the numbers: 1 center square and the rest are pieced together using two pieces as shown. All five together add up to the same area as original square because we use all pieces.

The way one gets a hint toward a solution is to see how an area of a square of length 1 can be split into 5 equal square areas:

1^2 = 5\cdot x^2\\x = \frac{\sqrt{5}}{5} = \sqrt{\frac{2^2}{5^2}+\frac{1^2}{5^2}}

which indicates we need to find a a triangle with sides 2 and 1 to get the hypotenuse of the right length. That gave rise to the cut pattern (if you look carefully, there are triangles with those side lengths).

Brenda throws a dart at this square-shaped target: Part A: Is the probability of hitting the black circle inside the target clos
Masteriza [31]
Either way.  The probability of hitting the circle is:

P(C)=Area of circle divided by area of square

P(W)=(area of square minus area of circle divided by area of square

P(C)=(πr^2)/s^2

P(W)=(s^2-πr^2)/s^2

...

Okay with know dimensions, r=1 (because r=d/2 and d=2 so r=1), s=11 we have:

P(inside circle)=π/121  (≈0.0259  or 2.6%)

P(outside circel)=(121-π)/121  (≈0.9744 or 97.4%)

the peach festival charges $5 for admission then$1.25 per pound of peaches picked. If Savanna went to the festival and picked 2.
Mumz [18]

Answer:

I'm glad you asked!

Step-by-step explanation:

So let's do it step by step.

Already she has to pay $5 for going in.

She has 2 whole pounds.

1.25 x 2=2.5 or 2 \frac{1}{2}

Add $5 and $ 2.5 .

5+2.5 = 7.5

Now let's do $1.25 divided by 10.

$$1.25 divided by $10 =0.125

Now let's do 0.125 times 4

0.125 x 4 = 0.5

Now let's add 7.5 to 0.5

7.5+0.5=8

vichka [17]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: To find the side length of a square, you need to find the square root of the area because the side length squared is the area.
