Answer:
y=-x/5 =3/5. that is how it is.
Assuming the vertex of the triangle shown is the center of the pentagon, and the line segment shown is an altitude of the triangle:
If we join the center of (the circumscribed circle and of) the pentagon to the 5 vertices, 5 isosceles triangles are formed, all congruent to the one shown in the figure. It is clear that these triangles are congruent, so to find the area of the pentagon, we find the area of one of these triangles and multiply by 5.
The base of the triangle is 22.3 in, and the height is 15.4 ins, thus the area of the pentagon is:
5(Area triangle)=5*[(22.3*15.4)/2]=<span>858.55 (square inches).
Answer: </span>858.55 (square inches).
Answer:
2 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The length of VW is just the distance between the two coordinates. You could use the distance formula, or an easier and faster way would be to recognize that since both points have the same y-coordinate, the distance between them will just be the distance of the x-coordinates. The absolute value of -4 and -2 is 2, so the length of VW is 2 units.
Hope this helped! ;)
The standard equation of a circle with centre (xc,yc) and radius R is given by
Substituting
centre (xc,yc) = (4,-3)
R=2.5
The equation is therefore
or
(x-4)^2+(y+3)^2=6.25
