<h3>Two answers: 5, 7</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

A drawing may be helpful to see what's going on. Check out the diagram below. This is one way of drawing out the two triangles. The locations of the points don't really matter, and neither does the the orientation of how you rotate things. What does matter is we have the right points connected to form the segments mentioned.

----------

For now, focus on triangle TIP only. In order to have this be isosceles, we must make TP = 5 or TP = 7.

If TP = 5, then it's the same length as TI.

If TP = 7, then it's the same length as PI.

In either case, we have exactly two sides the same length (the other side different) which is what it means for a triangle to be isosceles.

----------

Let's consider triangle TOP. For it to be isosceles, we must have two sides the same length. We already locked in TP to be either 5 or 7 in the previous section above. So there's no way that TP could be 11 units long to match up with PO = 11.

If TP = 5, then OT must also be 5 units long so that triangle TOP is isosceles.

If TP = 7, then OT = 7 for similar reasoning.

Either way, TP only has two choices on what it could be.

----------

In short, we basically just write the first two values given to us to get the two triangles to be isosceles. We can't use TP = 11 as it would make triangle TIP to be scalene (all sides are different lengths).

All you need to do is use the formula to solve. What I do is I plug in the information that I know, and then I just solve. In this case it would be: 

V= (4)
       -    pie(3.14)*4.8(cubed) 
       3 

I hope I was a good help, and if you still need help, come to my page and ask the question on specifically what you need help with. :D

Help !! Pleaseeeeeeeee

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

arc BE is the same as the interior angle, or 76°

BE = 76 °

we can also find arc CE the same way,  b/c we can see that the interior angle is the suppment with 76  or   180-76 = CE  or 104°

Now we know all the arcs but arc CD

so use the idea that all the way around the circle is 360°

360 = 76 + 104 + 140 + CD

360 - 76 - 104 - 140 = CD

40 = CD

CD = 40 °
