As a engineer who was mechanical then electrical most buildings, schematics,etc require some form of calculation for some shapes seeing that those shapes are what make up the world. Say for example you need to make something like a mother board pro house knowing it's shape and angle helps make a more accurate structure during the blue printing and build phase. No one just goes in and wings it you need to determine angles for things you don't know that the point of it.
Answer:
- <em><u>5.6875 in</u></em>
Explanation:
At the point of tangency, the <em>tangent </em>to a circle and the <em>radius</em> form a right triangle (the radius is perpendicular to the tangent).
Here you are given the length of the tangent (6in), and the distance from the bisected vertex to the circle (2.75 in)
I tried to upload the drawing but the tool is not allowing it now.
In the figure:
- The length of the tangent (6 in) is one leg of the triangle
- The distance from vertex and the circle (2.75in) along with the radius forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle: 2.75 + r.
- The other leg is the radius, r.
Then, you can use Pythagorean theorem:
Solve:
- r² + 36 = r² + 5.5r + 7.5625
The solution is in inches: r = 5.6875 inches ← answer
Answer:
16/15
Step-by-step explanation:
The LCM of 5 and 3 is 15
4/5 + 1/3 = 12 / 15 + 4 / 15 = 16 / 15
100 notes were altogether
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that ratio of the number of $2 notes to the number of $5 notes was 4 : 1
number of $2 notes : number of $5 notes = 4 : 1
Let 4x be the number of $ 2 notes
Let 1x be the number of $ 5 notes
Given that total value of notes is $ 260
Therefore,
$ 2 (number of $ 2 notes ) + $ 5(number of $ 5 notes ) = $ 260
$ 2(4x) + $ 5(1x) = $ 260
8x + 5x = 260
13x = 260
x = 20
<em><u>Thus number of notes altogether is given as:</u></em>
4x + 1x = 4(20) + 1(20) = 80 + 20 = 100
Thus 100 notes were altogether
