Answer:

21 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of cosines is helpful for this. The angle opposite the shorter diagonal is the supplement of the angle shown, so is 60°.

If we designate the known sides as "a" and "b", the short diagonal as "c" and the smaller angle as C, then the law of cosines tells us ...

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 -2ab·cos(C)

For the given dimensions, we have ...

c = √(15^2 +24^2 -2·15·24·cos(60°)) = √441 = 21 . . . inches

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

Sample model as the picture attached, which shows 2/3 of 18 are circled.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the correct question: Your class has 18 students. Exactly 2/3

of them say that, out of all their subjects, they like science the most. Which model shows 2/3  of 18 circled?

Given: Total number of student is 18.

           2/3 of the total students like science the most.

Now, calculating the number students like the science the most.

∴ Number of students who like the science most= \frac{2}{3} \times 18= 12 \ students

12 students like the science most out of total students.

Sample model are shown in the picture attached, where out of 18 students only 12 are inside the circle to show they like science the most.

Find the coordinates of the center of the following circle.<br><br> (x - 3)² + (y - 7)² = 49
Zepler [3.9K]

When you write the equation of a circle in the form

(x-x_0)^2+(y-y_0)^2=r^2

Then the center of the circle has coordinates (x_0, y_0) and the radius is r

So, in your case, the center of the circle is (3,7)
