Answer:

There are a total of 360° in any given circle, so an arc swept out by 60° of that 360° would make up 60/360 = 1/6 of the circle's circumference.

The formal for the circumference of a circle comes out of the definition of one of the most famous constants in mathematics: π. π is defined as the ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter, or:

From this definition, we can multiply both sides of the equation by d to obtain

or, circumference is π times the diameter. To find the diameter, we just need to double the radius, giving us 5 * 2 = 10cm. Usually you'll see π approximated as 3.14, which is likely what they want you to use here. Using that approximation, we find the circumference to be 3.14 * 10 = 31.4 cm.

Finally, to get the length of that arc, we just need to take 1/6 of the circumference (since the arc sweeps out 1/6 of the circle), giving us 31.4 * 1/6 ≈ 5.2 cm.

On the graph of f(x)=cos x and the interval [0,2π), for what value of x does f(x) achieve a minimum?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

cos(\pi)=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=cos (x)

State that the values where cos x is minimum:

x=\pi +2\pi n, n\in \mathbb{Z}

cos(0)=1\\

$cos\left(\frac{\pi}{4} \right)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} $

$cos\left(\frac{\pi}{2} \right)=0 $

cos(\pi)=-1

$cos\left(\frac{3\pi}{2} \right)=0 $

Hi,

L = (1/6)x - 1

P = 2x + 2L = 2x + (2/6)x - 2

P= (7/3)x - 2

x being the width.


Hope this helps!
