We can set up a proportion to solve this problem as follows:

height of the model/width of the model= height of the actual/width of the actual

24/18=60/x

Cross multiply,

24x=18*60

24x=1080

x=45 ft.

Therefore the answer is 45 ft.

The radius of a circle is 56 cm. Find the circumference of the circle to the nearest tenth. 351.9 cm 9,852.0 cm 112.0 cm 88.0 cm

borishaifa [10]

Alright, lets get started.

We have given a circle which has 56 cm radius.

We are asked to find its circumference.

The formula for circumference of circle = 2 pi r

Putting the value of pi and r

So the circumference = 2 * 2.142 * 56

Simplifing

Hence the circumference of circle = 351.9 cms

Answer is 351.9 cm

Hope it will help :)

To estimate the length of the lake, caleb starts at one end of the lake and walk 95m. He then turns a 60° angle and walks on a n

aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Length of the lake is 97.30 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given Caleb starts at one end of the lake and walk 95 m

So $d_1=95m$

And then he turns at an angle of 60°

So $\Theta =60^{\circ}$ and then again walk 8 m

So $d_2=8m$

We have to fond the total length of the lake , that is d

Total length of the lake is given by $d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2+2d_1d_2cos\Theta }=\sqrt{95^2+8^2+2\times 95\times 8\times cos60^{\circ}}=97.30m$

So length of the lake is 97.30 m
