ddd [48]

Answer:

(C) 30πcm

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find circumference you use the formula C (circumference)=2(pi)(r) in which r is the radius. In this case, two and 15 are thirty so to find the circumference all you have is the equation 30 times pi centimeters is equal to the Circumference.

The areas of two similar triangles are 72dm2 and 50dm2. The sum of their perimeters is 226dm. What is the perimeter of each of t
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

103=  p small

plarge = 123

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the the ratio of the areas is the scale factor squared/

Larger triangle over smaller triangle

72

----- = scale factor ^2

50

simplify by dividing by 2 on top and bottom

36

----- = scale factor ^2

25

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(36)

-------------- = sqrt(scale factor ^2)

sqrt(25)

6

-------------- = scale factor

5

The ratio of the perimeters is the scale factor

p large             6

-------------- = ----------------

 p small                5

Using cross products

6 p large = 5 p small

We know the sum is 226

p large + p small = 226

p large = 226 - p small

We have 2 equation and 2 unknowns

6 p large = 5 p small

Substitute for p large

6 (226 - p small) = 5 p small

1356 - 6 p small = 5 p small

Add 6 p small to each side

1356 = 11 p small

divide by 11

1356/11 =  p small

P large = 226-1356/11

p large = 2486/11-1356/11

plarge = 1130/11

The solution requires whole number answers so

1356/11 =  p small

123.27 which rounds to 123

plarge = 1130/11

plarge = 102.7272 = 103
