Answer:

Distance: 13, Midpoint: (-2, 3.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^{2} +(y2-y1)^{2} }$ . We can plug in the numbers from your question so it would be √(4+8)^2+(6-1)^2 = √144+25=169 =√169 = 13

The midpoint formula is ((x1+x2)/2, (y1+y2)/2), which is -8+4/2, 1+6/2 = (-2, 3.5).

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

There were 14 students in the circle

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The students stood in a circle

∴ The line joining each two opposite students is the diameter

of the circle

- The 6th student was directly across from the 13th student

∴ The 6th student is opposite to the 13th student

- Lets count how many students between 6th student and

13th student

∵ 7th , 8th , 9th , 10th , 11th , 12th students between the 6th

student and 13th student

∴ There are 6 students between them

- Lets count how many students between 13th student and

6th student

∵ 14th , 1st , 2nd , 3rd , 4th , 5th students between the 13th

student and 6th student

∴ There are 6 students between them

∵ There are 6 students between 6th and 13th

∵ There are 6 students between 13th and 6th

∵ There are 2 students in 6th and 13th

∴ The number of the students = 6 + 6 + 2 = 14

∴ There were 14 students in the circle

Part I: Measuring Parts of a Circle

cluponka [151]

Answer:

case a) The approximate circumference of circle is $5.9\ units$ and the ratio of circumference to Diameter is $\frac{C}{D}=2.95$

case b) The approximate circumference of circle is $6\ units$ and the ratio of circumference to Diameter is $\frac{C}{D}=3$

case c) The approximate circumference of circle is $6.24\ units$ and the ratio of circumference to Diameter is $\frac{C}{D}=3.12$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The approximate circumference of each circle, is equal to the perimeter of each inscribed polygon

case A) the figure is an inscribed pentagon

step 1

Find the approximate circumference of circle

The perimeter of the pentagon is equal to

$P=5s$

where

$s=1.18\ units$

substitute

$P=5(1.18)=5.9\ units$

therefore

The approximate circumference of circle is $5.9\ units$

step 2

Find the ratio of circumference to Diameter

we know that

The radius is half the diameter so

$D=2r=2(1)=2\ units$

The ratio is equal to

$\frac{C}{D}=5.9/2=2.95$

case B) the figure is an inscribed hexagon

step 1

Find the approximate circumference of circle

The perimeter of the hexagon is equal to

$P=6s$

where

$s=1\ units$

substitute

$P=6(1)=6\ units$

therefore

The approximate circumference of circle is $6\ units$

step 2

Find the ratio of circumference to Diameter

we know that

The radius is half the diameter so

$D=2r=2(1)=2\ units$

The ratio is equal to

$\frac{C}{D}=6/2=3$

case C) the figure is an inscribed dodecahedron

step 1

Find the approximate circumference of circle

The perimeter of the dodecahedron is equal to

$P=12s$

where

$s=0.52\ units$

substitute

$P=12(0.52)=6.24\ units$

therefore

The approximate circumference of circle is $6.24\ units$

step 2

Find the ratio of circumference to Diameter

we know that

The radius is half the diameter so

$D=2r=2(1)=2\ units$

The ratio is equal to

$\frac{C}{D}=6.24/2=3.12$

<em>Conclusion</em>

We know that

The exact value of the ratio $\frac{C}{D}$ is equal to

$\frac{\pi D}{D}=\pi$

The approximate value of the circumference will be closer to the real one when the number of sides of the inscribed polygon is greater
