Answer:

The area of the Patrick's building is 2340.22 ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Shape of the Patrick's building = Decagon

In the figure attached:

Radius of the decagon = r = 12 feet

Side of the decagon = a

Angle AOB = 36°

Using trigonometric ratio is triangle AOC :

AO = r = 12 feet

AC = \frac{a}{2}=0.5a

\tan \theta=\frac{Perpendicular}{base}

\tan 36^o=\frac{0.5a}{12 feet}

a=\frac{\tan 36^o\times 12 feet}{0.5}=17.44 feet

Area of decagon :

A=\frac{5}{2}a^2\times \sqrt{5+2\sqrt{5}}

A=\frac{5}{2}(17.44 ft)^2\times \sqrt{5+2\sqrt{5}}

A=2340.22 ft^2

The area of the Patrick's building is 2340.22 ft^2.

If light travels at 3. 108 m/s and its frequency is 6. 1015 Hz, then its wavelength is:
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

5 * 10^{-8} m

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of light is 3 * 10^8 m/s and its frequency is 6 * 10^{15} Hz.

The speed of light is given as:

c = λ * f

where λ = wavelength of light

f = frequency of light

Therefore, the wavelength is given as:

λ = c / f

=> λ = \frac{3 * 10^8}{6 * 10^{15}}

=> λ = 5 * 10^{-8} m

The wavelength of the light is 5 * 10^{-8} m

X is directly proportional with the square root of Y. If X=128 and Y=16 find: X when Y=36 B) Y when X=48 ( HELP ASAP!)
Tems11 [23]

x = sqrt{y}k

K is the constant of proportionality.

128 = sqrt{16}k

128 = 4k

128/4 = k

32 = k

x = sqrt{y}k

x = sqrt{36}•32

x = 6 • 32

x = 192

Find y when x = 48.

x = sqrt{y}k

48 = sqrt{y}32

48/32 = sqrt{y}

(48/32)^2 = [sqrt{y}]^2

2.25 = y

Claire and Malia are training for a race A)Claire runs 10 km in 1 hour. How many kilometers does she run in half an hour? In 2 1
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

A) 5km, 25km    B) 2.5km, 12.5km

Step-by-step explanation:

A)Claire runs 10 km in 1 hour.

she runs 10/2=5km in 1/2 hour.

in 2 1/2, she runs 10*2 1/2=25km


B)Malia runs 5 miles in 1 hour.

she runs 5/2=2 1/2km in 1/2 hour.

in 2 1/2, she runs 5*2 1/2=12 1/2km
