Answer:

x = 10 , -12

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:-

- The given quadratic equation is to be solved using the quadratic formula. The general form of a quadratic equation is:

                           ax^2 + bx + c =0  

Where, [ a , b and c are constants ]

- The quadratic formula is given as:

                       

                           x = \frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2a}

- The given equation is:

                             x^2 + 2x - 120 = 0

Where, a = 1 , b = 2 , c = -120

- Solve using quadratic formula:

                       x = \frac{-2+/-\sqrt{2^2 - 4*1*(-120)} }{2*1}\\\\x = \frac{-2+/-\sqrt{4 + 480} }{2}\\\\x = \frac{-2+/-(22) }{2}\\\\\\x = 10 , -12

The diagram above shows a rectangle inscribed in a circle AB=10 and AC =12 caculate the total surface area of the shaded part
erastova [34]

Answer:

71.63 \: \: \mathrm{cm^2 }

Step-by-step explanation:

Once we know the diameter of the circle, we can figure out the problem.

The diameter of the circle = The diagonal of the rectangle inscribed in the circle

To find the diagonal of the rectangle, we can use a formula.

d=\sqrt{w^2 + l^2}

The width is 10 cm and the length is 12 cm.

d=\sqrt{10^2 + 12^2}

d \approx 15.62

The diagonal of the rectangle inscribed in the circle is 15.62 cm.

The diameter of the circle is 15.62 cm.

Find the area of the whole circle.

A=\pi r^2

The r is the radius of the circle, to find radius from diameter we can divide the value by 2.

r = \frac{d}{2}

r=\frac{15.62}{2}

r=7.81

Let’s find the area now.

A=\pi (7.81)^2

A \approx 191.625

Find the area of rectangle.

A=lw

Length × Width.

A = 12 \times 10

A=120

Subtract the area of the whole circle with the area of rectangle to find area of shaded part.

191.625-120

71.625 \approx 71.63
