A square napkin is folded in half on the diagonal and placed on the diameter of a round plate (see diagram below). If the folded

napkin spans the plate and the plate has an 18-inch diameter, what is the area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin? Leave your answer in terms of .

Answer:

A=81(\pi-1)\ in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the plate

The area of a circle is given by the formula

A=\pi r^{2}

we have

r=18/2=9\ in ---> the radius is half the diameter

substitute

A=\pi (9)^{2}\\A=81\pi\ in^2

step 2

Find the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin)

we know that

The diagonal of the square is the same that the diameter of the plate

Applying Pythagorean theorem

D^2=2b^2

where

b is the length side of the square

we have

D=18\ in

substitute

18^2=2b^2

solve for b^2

b^2=162\ in^2 -----> is the area of the square

Divide by 2

162/2=81\ in^2

step 3

Find the area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin

we know that

The  area of the space on the plate that is NOT covered by the napkin, is equal to subtract the area of the square napkin folded (is a half of the area of the square napkin) from the area of the plate

so

A=(81\pi-81)\ in^2

simplify

A=81(\pi-1)\ in^2

X the first account  interest = x/100*2 = 2x/100 
(x + 800)/100 * 4 =( 4x + 3200)/100 
2x/100 + (4x + 3200)/100 = 92
2x + 4x + 3200 = 9200 
6x = 6000
x = 1000

The comlete question with the diagram is in the picture attached.

Answer:

Point   \boxed{\text{   E    }}   is the vertex of the angle marked in the figure.

Explanation:

When two lines intersect each other they will form an <em>angle</em> and the intersection point will be the <em>vertex of the angle</em>.

In the figure attached, the line that joins the points A and B and the line that joins the points C and D intersect at the point E, forming the corresponding angle (shadowed in the figure).

Such intersection point, which marks the angle, is the vertex of the angle.
