You can find the segment congruent to AC by finding another segment with the same length. So first, you need to find the length of AC.

C - A = AC
0 - (-6) = AC Cancel out the double negative
0 + 6 = AC
6 = AC

Now, find another segment that also has a length of 6.

D - B = BD
2 - (-2) = BD Cancel out the double negative
2 + 2 = BD
4 = BD
4 ≠ 6

E - B = BE
4 - (-2) = BE Cancel out the double negative
4 + 2 = BE
6 = BE
6 = 6

So, the segment congruent to AC is B. BE .

Can an expert help with this

SVEN [57.7K]

The formula of an area of a circle:

$A_O=\pi r^2$

We have

r = 1.8 m

π ≈ 3.14

Substitute:

$A_O=\pi\cdot1.8^2=3.24\pi\ m^2\approx3.24\cdot3.14=10.1736\ m^2\approx10.17\ m^2$

Rollie was succesful in losing weight he had a goal weight in mind he went on a diet for three months each month he would lose o

Llana [10]

Let's say that in the beginning he weighted x and at the end he weighted x-y, y being the number of kg he wanted to loose.

first month he lost
y/3

then he lost:
(y-y/3)/3
this is
(2/3y)/3=2/9y
explanation: ((y-y/3) is what he still needed to loose: y minus what he lost already

and then he lost
(y-2/9y-1/3y)/3+3 (the +3 is his additional 3 pounts)
(y-2/9y-1/3y)/3-3=(7/9y-3/9y)/3+3=4/27y+3

it's not just y/3 because each month he lost one third of what the needed to loose at the current time, not in totatl

and the weight at the end of the 3 months was still x-y+3, 3 pounds over his goal weight!

so: x -y/3-2/9y-4/27y-3=x-y+3

we can subtract x from both sides:
-y/3-2/9y-4/27y-3=-y+3
add everything up:

-19/27y=-y+6

which means
-19/27y=-y+6

y-6=19/27y

8/27y=6
4/27y=3
y=20.25

so... that's how much he wanted to loose, but he lost 3 less than that, so 23.25

ps. i hope I didn't make a mistake in counting, let me know if i did. In any case you know HOW to solve it now, try to do the calculations yourself to see if they're correct!
