Answer:

Triangle 1:  Leg 17  Base 10

Triangle 2: Leg ???  Base 8

Set up a proportion:

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone

V = 1/3 pi r^2 (h)

V = 1/3 pi 66^2 (18)

V= 1/3 pi 4356(18)

V = 1/3 pi 78408

V = 1/3 264,201.12

V = 82,067.04cm^3

What is the distance between the points P(-5, 4), Q(7, -5)
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between two points is = √(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²

x1 = -5, y1 = 4; x2 = 7, y2 = -5

|PQ| = √(7 - (-5))² + (-5 - 4)²

|PQ| = √(7 + 5)² + (-9)²

|PQ| = √(12)² + 81

|PQ| = √144 + 81

|PQ| = √225

|PQ| = 15

Help me with this question, please
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

Part 1: [ -4 = -8 ]

Part 2: Inconsistent

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Part 1</u>

1. Move all terms that don't contain x to the right side:

3x - 6y+6y = -12+6y

= 3x = -12 + 6y

2. Isolate x:

\frac{3x}{3} = \frac{-12+6y}{3}

x = -4 + 2y

3. Substitute the new expression into the original:

-4 + 2y - 2y = -8

4. Simplify:

-4 + 0 = -8

[ -4 = -8 ]

<u>Part 2</u>

The two solutions are not equal in value, so, we can conclude that the system of equations has no solution, or is inconsistent.

hope this helps!

Answer:

The polygon has 9 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A regular polygon has equal length sides and equal interior angles

step 1

Find the measure of the interior angle

Remember that

The interior angle plus the exterior angle must be equal to 180 degrees (form a linear pair)

Let

x ----> the measure of each interior angle in the regular polygon

so

x+40^o=180^o

solve for x

x=180^o-40^o=140^o

step 2

Find the number of sides of the regular polygon

we know that

The measure of each interior angle in a regular polygon is given by the formula

x=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}

where

n is the number of sides of the polygon

substitute the given values

140^o=\frac{(n-2)180^o}{n}

solve for n

140n=180n-360\\180n-140n=360\\40n=360\\n=9\ sides

therefore

The polygon has 9 sides
