Meters are 100 times as large as centimeters. So, if we have 800 centimeters, that is the equivalent of 8 meters.
In this scenario, we want to know how many meters is equivalent to 7
centimeters. Since 1 centimeter is 1/100 of 1 meter, we can multiply the
amount of centimeters by 1/100 to get the measurement in meters.
7(1/100) will yield 7/100 or .07 meters.
To write this in scientific notation, we take 7 and multiply it by 1/100 or 10^(-2). This is written "7x10^(-2) m".
7 centimeters in scientific notation is just 7x10^0 because it is a
single unit. Scientific notation allows us to compare the size of
numbers more easily.
For instance 7.12x10^3 is much larger
than 7.12x10^(-3) due to the exponents and how many "10s" we are
mulitplying our number by.
1) (3.8 * 10^3) * (9.4 * 10^-5) = 0.3572 = 3.6 * 10^-1
2) (4.2 * 10^7) * (7.4 * 10^-2) = 3.1 * 10^6
3) (8.6 * 10^-6) * (7.1 * 10^9) / (4.1 * 10^ -2) * ( 2.8 * 10 ^-7) = 5.3 * 10^-6
4) 4.2 * 10^-1
Sorry for not putting my work for number 4. Hope this helps!

Answer:
nope
Step-by-step explanation:
The apothem represents one side of the right triangle to be solved. Specifically, it represents the height of the triangle.
The radius of the polygon represents the hypotenuse of the right triangle that is going to be solved.
Therefore, we can infer that the radius of the polygon is greater than the apothem because the hypotenuse is greater than all sides of a triangle.
Answer:
the radius of the polygon is greater
