Hey there!

We are looking for the circumference of the circle, which is the distance around it. We are given the area, which is the radius squared times pi.

First, we need to undo the area to find our radius.

113.04/3.14=36

We square root this to find the radius.

√36=6

Our radius is six. To find the circumference, we need to multiply the diameter by pi. The diameter is twice the radius.

6*2=12

12*3.14=37.68

Therefore, we will need 37.68 feet of trim to around the edge of the quilt.

I hope this helps!

Which represents the solution to the absolute value equation? 3|2x+4|-1=11

larisa86 [58]

The first step for absolute value equations is to isolate the expression contained within the absolute value bars:

3|2x+4|-1 = 11
3|2x+4| = 12
|2x+4| = 4

so |2x+4| is 4 units away from 0 on a number line, but we don't know in which direction -- negative or positive? you'll have two answers.

2x+4 = 4

AND

2x+4 = -4

solve both of those two step equations and you'll get

x = 0

AND

x = -4

so 0 and -4 are your solutions.

Find 2 common angles that sum to (17pi/12) 2. Evaluate tan(17pi/12) using the sum identity for tangent.

Dmitry [639]

Note that
$\frac{17 \pi }{12} = \frac{3 \pi }{12} + \frac{14 \pi }{12} = \frac{ \pi }{4} + \frac{7 \pi }{6}$

Note that
$x= \frac{ \pi }{4}:\,\, sin(x) =cos(x)= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{2} },\,tan(x)=1\\x= \frac{7 \pi }{6} :\,\,sin(x)=- \frac{1}{2} ,\,\,cos(x)=- \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{2} ,\,\,tan(x)= \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} }$

Use the identity
$tan(x+y)= \frac{tan(x)+tan(y)}{1-tan(x)tan(y)}$

Therefore
$tan( \frac{17 \pi }{12} )= \frac{1+ \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } }{1- \frac{1}{ \sqrt{3} } } = \frac{ \sqrt{3}+1 }{ \sqrt{3}-1} = \frac{( \sqrt{3}+1 )^{2}}{( \sqrt{3}-1 )( \sqrt{3}+1 )} = \frac{3+1+2 \sqrt{3}}{3-1} =2+ \sqrt{3}$
