You need to find the circumference of the whole circular pool and then subtract from it the arc length that is 1/4 of the circumference. The circumference formula is C = (3.14)(d), which in our case is 3.14(40) which is 125.6. Now we need the arc length we need to take away. 1/4 of a circle corresponds to a 90 degree angle, so in the formula for arc length, we have this:
which equals 31.4. Now subtract that from the circumference of the whole circle and you get the outside of the circle minus that arc length. That's 94.2. But we have to go in the radius times 2 to enclose the pie shaped piece we cut away. So we have 134.2. She should've just stuck with enclosing the circle; she would have used less fencing!
17 inches
15^2 + 8^2 = 289
square root of 289 = 17 inches

Step-by-step explanation:
<h2>Three less than seven times a number:</h2>
<u><em>three : 3, less than : (-), seven : 7, times : (multiplication symbol), a number : (x)</em></u>
<u><em>the answer is : 3 - 7 (x)</em></u>
<u><em>: 3-7x</em></u>
Answer:
70°
Step-by-step explanation:
Connect the center of the circle with endpoints of the chord. Let the center of the circle be point O and endpoints of the chord be points A (let point A lie on the tangent line too)and B.
From the figure, central angle AOB has the measure of 220°.
Consider triangle AOB. This triangle is isosceles triangle because OA and OB are both radii. In this triangle the measure of angle AOB is 360° - 220° = 140°.
Angles OAB and OBA are angles adjacent to the base AB, so they are congruent. The sum of the measures of all interior angles in triangle is always 180°, so
m∠OAB + m∠OBA + m∠AOB = 180°
m∠OAB = m∠OBA = 1/2 (180° - 140°)
m∠OAB = 20°
Since drawn line is tangent line, then OA is perpendicular to this tangent line and
x° = 90° - 20°
x° = 70°
