Mathematics
1 answer:
Romashka [77]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

\triangle ABC \sim\triangle DEF..(Given)  \\ \therefore \frac{AB}{DE} =\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{AC}{DF}..(CSST)\\\\\therefore \frac{6}{4} =\frac{7}{x}=\frac{8}{y}\\\\ \therefore \frac{6}{4} =\frac{7}{x} \\ \therefore \: x =  \frac{7 \times 4}{6}  \\  \\\therefore \: x =  \frac{28}{6} =  \frac{14}{3}    \\  \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ \therefore \: x =  \frac{14}{3} }} \\   \\  \because \: \frac{6}{4} =\frac{8}{y} \\  \\ \therefore \:y =  \frac{4 \times 8}{6}  \\  \\ \therefore \:y =  \frac{32}{6}  \\  \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \therefore \:y =  \frac{16}{3}  }}\\  \\

Will mark most brainlest if correct

Answer: each guest gets 4.19 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The cake is a circle. The area which he cuts for himself is a sector with a central angle of 120 degrees. The formula for determining the area of a sector is expressed as

Area of sector = θ/360 × πr²

Where

θ represents the central angle

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

r represents the radius of the circle.

From the diagram,

r = 4cm

Therefore, area of the cake that he cut for himself is

120/360 × 3.14 × 4²

= 16.75 cm²

The total area of the cake is

3.14 × 4² = 50.24 cm²

Therefore, the rest of the cake is

50.24 - 16.75 = 33.49 cm²

The amount that each guest gets would be

33.49/8 = 4.19 cm²
