Answer:

  90 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the side lengths of the enclosure. The length is given as 80 ft, but only one side that long counts as part of the 260 ft of fence. So, we have ...

  260 ft = 2×W + L = 2×W + 80 ft . . . . . length of fence for 3 sides

  180 ft = 2×W . . . . . . subtract 80

  90 ft = W . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The width of the enclosure is 90 feet.

The circumcenter is the center of the. circle
erma4kov [3.2K]

The circumcenter is the center of the circle which goes through the triangle's vertices, so the circumcenter of the triangle and the center of that circumscribed circle MUST be the same point.

The same goes for the incenter and the center of the inscribed circle, though these will not, in general, be the same point as the circumcenter.

Rachel mows 5 lawns in 8 hours. At this rate how many lawns can she mow in 40 hour?
posledela

We can think of this as an equality

5 Lawns = 8 Hours

If she needs 40 hours, you can multiply 8 hours by 5 to get 40, but now it's not balanced. So, you need to multiply 5 to the other side too so:

5 x (5) = 8 x (5)

Therefore she mows 25 Lawns in 40 Hours
