Answer:

The value of k = 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- An equilateral triangle ABC is inscribed in a circle N

- The area of the triangle is √3

- The shaded area is the difference between the area of the circle

  and the area of the equilateral triangle ABC

- The shaded are = k π - √3

- We need to find the value of k

* <u><em>At first lets find the length of the side of the Δ ABC</em></u>

∵ Δ ABC is an equilateral triangle

∴ Its area = √3/4 s² , where s is the length of its sides

∵ The area of the triangle = √3

∴ √3/4 s² = √3

- divide both sides by √3

∴ 1/4 s² = 1

- Multiply both sides by 4

∴ s² = 4 ⇒ take √ for both sides

∴ s = 2

∴ The length of the side of the equilateral triangle is 2

* <u><em>Now lets find the radius of the circle</em></u>

- In the triangle whose vertices are A , B and N the center of the circle

∵ AN and BN are radii

∴ AN = BN = r , where r is the radius of the circle

∵ The sides of the equilateral angles divides the circle into 3 equal

   arcs in measure where each arc has measure 360°/3 = 120°

∵ The measure of the central angle in a circle equal the measure

  of the its subtended arc arc

∵ ∠ANB is an central angle subtended by arc AB

∵ The measure of arc AB is 120°

∴ m∠ANB = 120°

- By using the cosine rule in Δ ANB

∵ AB = 2 , AN = BN = r , m∠ANB = 120°

∴ (2)^{2}=r^{2}+r^{2}-2(r)(r)cos(120)

∴ 4=r^{2}+r^{2}-2(r)(r)(-0.5)

∴ 4=r^{2}+r^{2}-(-r^{2})

∴ 4=r^{2}+r^{2}+r^{2}

∴ 4=3r^{2}

- Divide both sides by 3

∴ r^{2}=\frac{4}{3}

- Take square root for both sides

∴ r = 2/√3

* <u><em>Lets find the value of k</em></u>

∵ Area circle = πr²

∵ r = 2/√3

∴ Area circle = π(2/√3)² = (4/3)π

∵ Area shaded = area circle - area triangle

∵ Area triangle = √3

∴ Area shaded = (4/3) π - √3

∵ Area of the shaded part is π k - √3

- Equate the two expressions

∴ π k - √3 = (4/3) π - √3

∴ k = 4/3

* The value of k = 4/3

What is the answer to this problem -2x – 4 &lt; 3x + 21
horsena [70]

Start with

-2x-4 < 3x+21

Add 2x to both sides:

-4 < 5x+21

Subtract 21 from both sides:

-25 < 5x

Divide both sides by 5. Since it is positive, we don't have to change the inequality sign:

-5 < x

So, the answer is x > -5

Sophia is at home, and has to
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Sophia should start her homework at 5:55

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes her 10 minutes to go to school, 30 minutes to do her homework, and 25 minutes to eat dinner, you should add those numbers together to get 65 because then you can subtract 65 minutes from 7:00 so you get the time she needs to start her homework in order to get to school at 7:00. So basically 10+30+25=65 and then 65 minutes subtracted from 7:00 is 5:55.

I hope this helps you :D
