I don’t know how to use the triangle area to calculate the area of the inscribed polygons

First of all, let's recall the area of a triangle, knowing its base (b) and height (h):

A = \cfrac{bh}{2}

The exercise is showing you that, if you inscribe a polynomial with more and more side, the area of the polynomial will approximate the area of the circle better and better (you can see youself that the polygon is "filling" the circle more and more as the number of sides increase).

Now, the second column tells you the area of each of the triangles the polygon is split into. So, we can see that the first polygon is split into 3 triangles, each of them having base 1.73 and height 0.5.

So, the area of each triangle is

A = \cfrac{1.73 \cdot 0.5}{2} = 0.4325

There are three of these triangles, so the area of the whole polygon is

A = 0.4325 \cdot 3 = 1.2975

In the second case, you have six triangles, each with base 1 and height 0.87. So, the whole area is

A = 6 \cdot \cfrac{1\cdot 0.87}{2} = 0.87 \cdot 3 = 2.61

Finally, in the last case you have 8 triangles, each with base 0.77 and height 0.92. So, the whole area is

A = 8 \cdot \cfrac{0.77\cdot 0.92}{2} = 0.77\cdot 0.92 \cdot 4 = 2.8336

1. Draw an appropriate Venn diagram to depict each of the following sets. U = The set of integers. A = The set of even integers.
CaHeK987 [17]

The attached diagram represents the Venn diagram of the sets

<h3>How to draw the Venn diagram?</h3>

The sets are given as:

  • The universal set, U = The set of integers.
  • A = The set of even integers.
  • B = The set of odd integers.
  • C = The set of multiples of 3.
  • D= The set of prime numbers

From the above representation, we have the following highlights:

  • Set A and set B will not intersect, because no number can be even and odd
  • Set C and set D will intersect set A because they have common elements 6 and 2, respectively
  • Set C and set D will intersect set B because they have common elements 3 and 3, respectively

Using the above highlights, we can now draw the Venn diagram

See attachment for the Venn diagram

please help me please if some one answers my question next i will post 100 points free if some one answers this question please
kari74 [83]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the points (0,60)  and (6.0) are the intercept points for the graph of the car slowing down ( accelerating in the opposite direction than it's traveling)

we already know the slope of the line b/c that the rate at which it's slowing .. -10 =m  which is the slope of the line .. down 10

use the point-slope formula  y-y1 = m(x-x1) and plug in either given point for (x1,y1)

b) y -60 = -10(x-0)

y= -10x+60

thats the slope-intercept form of the equation
