Area of the pentagon: 342 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure of the pentagon is missing: find it in attachment.

The area of the pentagon can be seen as the area of 5 equal triangles, each of them having a base equal to the length of the side of the pentagon,

L = 14.1 cm

and the height of each triangle can be found by using Pythagorean's theorem:

$h=\sqrt{12^2-(\frac{L}{2})^2}=\sqrt{12^2-(\frac{14.1}{2})^2}=9.7 cm$

The area of each of the 5 triangles is

$A'=\frac{1}{2}Lh$

Therefore, the area of the pentagon is 5 times this area:

$A=5A'=\frac{5}{2}Lh=\frac{5}{2}(14.1)(9.7)=342 cm^2$

The wildflowers at a national park have been decreasing in numbers. There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park

bonufazy [111]

Year New flowers

1 1200

2 300

3 75

There were 1200 wildflowers in the first year that the park started tracking them. Since then, there have been one fourth as many new flowers each year

Initially there are 1200 flowers and start decreasing by $\frac{1}{4}$

So first term is 1200 and common ratio is $\frac{1}{4}$ .

Its a geometric sequence so summation becomes

i =1∑ ∞ 1200( $\frac{1}{4})^{i-1}$

Now we find the sum

We use sum formula

$Sum = \frac{a}{1-r}$

Where a is the first term , a= 1200

r is the common ratio , r= 1/4

$Sum = \frac{1200}{1-(\frac{1}{4})}$

$Sum = \frac{1200}{\frac{3}{4}}$

Sum = 1600 wildflowers

four distinct circles are drawn in a plane. what is the maximum number of points where at least two of the circles intersect?

kolezko [41]

90 points where at least two of the circles intersect.

<h3>Define circle.</h3>

A circle is a closed, two-dimensional object where every point in the plane is equally spaced from a central point. The line of reflection symmetry is formed by all lines that traverse the circle. Additionally, every angle has rotational symmetry around the centre.

Given,

Four distinct circles are drawn in a plane.

Start with two circles; they can only come together in two places. The third circle contacts each of the previous two circles in two spots each, bringing the total number of intersections up to four with the addition of a third circle. The total number of intersections will rise by another 6 when a fourth circle intersects the first three. And the list goes on.

As a result, we get a recognizable, regular pattern: for each additional circle, there are two more intersections overall than in the circle before it.

The total number of intersections can be expressed as the sum because the maximum number of intersections of 10 circles must occur when each circle contacts every other circle in 2 places each.

2 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 10 + 12 + 14 + 16 + 18 = 90.

90 points where at least two of the circles intersect.
