The diameter of a basketball rim is 18 inches. A standard basketball has a circumference of 30 inches. What is the distance betw

shusha [124]

We know that
circumference=2*pi*r-------> r=circumference/(2*pi)
circumference=30 in
r=circumference/(2*pi)------> 30/(2*pi)-----> 4.7746 in
the radius of a <span>standard basketball is 4.77 in
</span>
<span>the distance between the ball and the rim is equal to
</span>radius of a basketball rim minus radius of a a standard basketball
radius of a basketball rim =18/2------> 9 in
radius of a a standard basketball=4.77 in<span>

</span>
the distance between the ball and the rim=[9-4.77]------> 4.23 in

the answer is
4.23 in

1. If you knew that DE = $\frac{1}{2}$ CB
Then you would know it is a mid-segment.

2. If you knew that CD = DA and BE = EA (point D and point E are midpoints of their respective segments)
