Answer:
Is a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the measure of angle C
Remember that
The sum of the internal angles of a triangle must be equal to 180 degrees
so
substitute the given values
therefore
The triangle is a right triangle, because has a internal angle of 90 degrees
LA = perimeter of base x height
Use Pythagorean theorem to find the base
4^2 + 6^2 = 52
Sq root of 52 is 7.2111...
4+6+7.2 = 17.2
17.2 x 8
137.6 is your answer
If 500 miles is represented by 7.5 inches:
Divide 500 by 7.5
500/7.5 = 66.666
Multiply this by 3.3
66.666*3.3 = 220
The answer is 220 miles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Nice summary problem.
<AEC
- AEC = 360 - 243.5 = 116.5
- The number of degrees in 1 rotation of a circle = 360o. You have accounted for 243.5 degrees. What is left over is the answer.
<EAD and <ECD
Both of these are tangents to a circle. Tangents meet radii at 90 degree angles.
<EAD = <ECD = 90 degrees
<ABC
<ABC is 1/2 the central angle. The Central angle is <AEC
- < AEC = 116.5
- <ABC = 1/2 * 116.5
- <ABC = 58.25
<ADC
There are 2 ways of doing this. You should know both of them.
<em><u>One</u></em>
All quadrilaterals = 360 degrees. You know three of the angles. You should be able to find ADC
- <ADC + 90 + 90 + 116.5 = 360 Add the four angles together.
- <ADC + 296.5 = 360 Combine terms on the left
- <ADC = 360 - 296.5 Subtract 238.25 from both sides
- <ADC = 63.5 Answer
<em><u>Method Two</u></em>
<ADC = 1/2 (major Arc - Minor Arc) This formula is fundamental to circle / tangent properties. The Major arc is the larger of the two parts of the circumference of a circle. The Minor arc is the smaller.
- <ADC = 1/2(243.5 - 116.5)
- <ADC = 1/2(127)
- <ADC = 63.5
