What is the area of the shaded region in the figure below ? Leave answer in terms of pi and in simplest radical form

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

That shaded area is called a segment. To find the area of a segment within a circle, you first have to find the area of the pizza-shaped portion (called the sector), then subtract from it the area of the triangle (the sector without the shaded area forms a triangle as you can see). This difference will be the area of the segment.

The formula for the area of a sector of a circle is:

$A_s=\frac{\theta}{360}*\pi r^2$ where our theta is the central angle of the circle (60 degrees) and r is the radius (the square root of 3).

Filling in:

$A_s=\frac{60}{360}*\pi (\sqrt{3})^2$ which simplifies a bit to

$A_s=\frac{1}{6}*\pi(3)$ which simplifies a bit further to

$A_s=\frac{1}{2}\pi$ which of course is the same as

$A_s=\frac{\pi}{2}$

Now for tricky part...the area of the triangle.

We see that the central angle is 60 degrees. We also know, by the definition of a radius of a circle, that 2 of the sides of the triangle (formed by 2 radii of the circle) measure √3. If we pull that triangle out and set it to the side to work on it with the central angle at the top, we have an equilateral triangle. This is because of the Isosceles Triangle Theorem that says that if 2 sides of a triangle are congruent then the angles opposite those sides are also congruent. If the vertex angle (the angle at the top) is 60, then by the Triangle Angle-Sum theorem,

180 - 60 = 120, AND since the 2 other angles in the triangle are congruent by the Isosceles Triangle Theorem, they have to split that 120 evenly in order to be congruent. 120 / 2 = 60. This is a 60-60-60 triangle.

If we take that extracted equilateral triangle and split it straight down the middle from the vertex angle, we get a right triangle with the vertex angle half of what it was. It was 60, now it's 30. The base angles are now 90 and 60. The hypotenuse of this right triangle is the same as the radius of the circle, and the base of this right triangle is $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ . Remember that when we split that 60-60-60 triangle down the center we split the vertex angle in half but we also split the base in half.

Using Pythagorean's Theorem we can find the height of the triangle to fill in the area formula for a triangle which is

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$ . There are other triangle area formulas but this is the only one that gives us the correct notation of the area so it matches one of your choices.

Finding the height value using Pythagorean's Theorem:

$(\sqrt{3})^2=h^2+(\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2})^2$ which simplifies to

$3=h^2+\frac{3}{4}$ and

$3-\frac{3}{4}=h^2$ and

$\frac{12}{4} -\frac{3}{4} =h^2$ and

$\frac{9}{4} =h^2$

Taking the square root of both the 9 and the 4 (which are both perfect squares, thankfully!), we get that the height is 3/2. Now we can finally fill in the area formula for the triangle!

$A=\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{3})(\frac{3}{2})$ which simplifies to

$A=\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{4}$

Therefore, the area in terms of pi for that little segment is

$A_{seg}=\frac{\pi}{2}-\frac{3\sqrt{3} }{4}$ , choice A.

Jennifer has 12 pineapples in her lunchbox. For every pineapple she has 6 strawberries. How many pieces of fruit does Jennifer h

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

84 pieces of fruit.

Step-by-step explanation:

I got this answer by doing 12*6 = 72, but this is not our final answer because we still have to add the pineapples which gives us 84.

Hope this helps!!

seropon [69]

This question is incomplete because the answer choices were not provided. The complete question was obtained from google as:

A tire manufacturer has a 60,000 mile warranty for tread life. The manufacturer considers the overall tire quality to be acceptable if less than 5% are worn out at 60,000 miles. The manufacturer tests 250 tires that have been used for 60,000 miles. They find that 3.6% of them are worn out. With this data, we test the following hypotheses.

H0: The proportion of tires that are worn out after 60,000 miles is equal to 0.05.

Ha: The proportion of tires that are worn out after 60,000 miles is less than 0.05.

In order to assess the evidence, which question best describes what we need to determine?

a. If we examine a sample of tires used for 60,000 miles and determine the proportion that are worn out, how likely is that proportion to be 3.6% or less?

b. If we examine the proportion of worn out tires in the population of tires used for 60,000 miles, how likely is that proportion to be 5%?

c. If we examine the proportion of worn out tires in the population of tires used for 60,000 miles, how likely is that proportion to be less than 5%?

d. If we examine the proportion of worn out tires in the population of tires used for 60,000 miles, how likely is that proportion to be 3.6%?

e. If we examine a sample of tires used for 60,000 miles and determine the proportion that are worn out, how likely is that proportion to be less than 5%?

Answer:

Option A is the correct question - If we examine a sample of tires used for 60,000 miles and determine the proportion that is worn out, how likely is that proportion to be 3.6% or less?

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question that describes what needs to be determined is expressed in option A as this will give us p-value and we will guide us in deciding whether to keep or reject the null hypothesis

Thus option A is the correct question - If we examine a sample of tires used for 60,000 miles and determine the proportion that is worn out, how likely is that proportion to be 3.6% or less?
