A toy has various shaped objects that a child is supposed to push through matching holes. The area of the square hole is 5 cm2.

The area of the circular face of the round peg is 5 cm2. Will the round peg fit through the square hole? Use r = 3.14. Round to the nearest hundredth as needed. Explain

To answer this, let's first describe the two areas and obtain the pertinent dimensions from them.

The area of the square hole is 5 cm^2.  Since A = s^2, where s is the length of a side of the square, s = +√5 in this situation.  +√5 is approx. 2.24 cm.

The area of the round peg is 5 cm^2 also, but the area is calculated using a different formula:  A = πr^2, where r is the radius of the circle.  Solving for r^2, we get:

                 r^2 = A/π.   Here, r^2 = (5 cm^2)/π = 5π, so that:

r = +√(5π).  This is approx. 3.96 cm, and so the diameter is twice that, or 7.93 cm.

So there's plenty of room for the round peg to enter the square hole, but not the other way around!

How can I solve this question???
eduard

Answer:

144°

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the measure of the central angle of the regular pentagon

Divide 360 degrees by 5 (the number of sides)

360\°/5=72\°

Let

c----> the center of the pentagon

we know that

m∠ECA=72°

m∠ACB=72°

therefore

m∠ECB=m∠ECA+m∠ACB

substitute the values

m∠ECB=72°+72°=144°

The measure of angle ECB is equal to the degrees that the pentagon rotate

Marisol is painting on a canvas that has an area of 180 square inches. The length of the painting is 11/4 times the width. What
Alona [7]
Notice the picture below, see the length "l"?

well \bf Area=l\times w\qquad 
\begin{cases}
l=\frac{11}{4}w\\
Area=180
\end{cases}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
thus
\\\\
180=\cfrac{11}{4}w\times w

solve for "w", to find the width,

what's the length?  well, l = 11/4 w

Solve for all values of x (x+9)2=4
serg [7]

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to distribute the 2 to what is in the parenthesis, then you get left with 2x+18=4 so subtract the 18 from both sides leaving you with 2x=-14 so you divide both by 2 leaving you with x=-7.
