Answer: Choice B

95 - 1080n for any integer n

=================================================

Explanation:

Notice how 1080 is a multiple of 360 since 360*3 = 1080. The other values 1450, 780 and 340 are not multiples of 360. For example 1450/360 = 4.02777 approximately. We need a whole number result to show it is a multiple.

Therefore, choice B shows subtracting off a multiple of 360 from the original angle 95. In my opinion, it would be better to write 95+360n or 95-360n to make it more clear we are adding or subtracting multiples of 360.

Choice B will find coterminal angles, but there will be missing gaps. One missing coterminal angle is 95-360 = -265 degrees. So again, 95-360n is a more complete picture. I can see what your teacher is going for though.

Big Ben, the famous clock tower in London, has a minute hand that is 14 feet long. How far does the tip of the minute hand of Bi

ycow [4]

Answer:

36.65 ft (2 dp)

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles around a point sum to 360°
1 hour = 60 minutes

Therefore, the minute hand of a clock travels 360° in 60 minutes

Number of degrees the minute hand will travel in 25 minutes:

$\sf =\dfrac{360}{60} \times 25=150^{\circ}$

To find how far the tip of the minute hand travels in 25 minutes, use the Arc Length formula:

$\textsf{Arc length}=2 \pi r\left(\dfrac{\theta}{360^{\circ}}\right)$

$\textsf{(where r is the radius and}\:\theta\:{\textsf{is the angle in degrees)}$

Given:

r = length of minute hand = 14 ft
$\theta$ = 150°

$\begin{aligned}\implies \textsf{Arc length} &=2 \pi (14)\left(\dfrac{150^{\circ}}{360^{\circ}}\right)\\ & = 28\pi \left(\dfrac{5}{12}\right)\\ & = \dfrac{35}{3} \pi \\ & = 36.65\: \sf ft\:(2\:dp)\end{aligned}$

Tracy needs to find the length and width of the equipment storage room where she works. The room is 2 meters longer than it is w

____ [38]

Answer:

3 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume the storage room is a rectangle, like most rooms, no indication it is otherwise.

We know it's a rectangle and not a square because it is longer than wide.

We have the perimeter measurement (16 meters).

So, we can make the following equation:

2x + 2y = 16

x being the width of the room, y being it's length. A perimeter is the sum of all sides.

We also know the room is 2 meters longer than wide... so:

y = x + 2

If we replace y in the first equation by its value relative to x, we get:

2x + 2(x + 2) = 16 which becomes

2x + 2x + 4 = 16

4x =12

thus x = 3

Width: 3 meters

Length: 5 meters.

Confirms the 16 meters perimeter.
