The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

Semicircles and quarter circles are types of arc lengths. Recall that an arc is simply part of a circle. we learned about the degree measure of an ac, but they also have physical lengths.

a) Determine the arc length to the nearest tenth of an inch.

b) Explain why the following proportion would solve for the length of AC below: \frac{x}{12\pi } = \frac{130}{360}

c) Solve the proportion in (b) to find the length of AC to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Note: The image in the attachment shows the arc to solve this question.

Answer: a) 9.4 in

c) x = 13.6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

a) \frac{arclength}{2\pi.r } = \frac{mAB}{360}, where:

r is the radius of the circumference

mAB is the angle of the arc

arc length = \frac{mAB.2.\pi.r }{360}

arc length = \frac{90.2.3.14.6}{360}

arc length = 9.4

The arc lenght for the image is 9.4 inches.

b) An <u>arc</u> <u>length</u> is a fraction of the circumference of a circle. To determine the arc length, the ratio of the length of an arc to the circumference is equal to the ratio of the measure of the arc to 360°. So, suppose the arc length is x, for the arc in (b):

\frac{x}{2.6.\pi } = \frac{130}{360}

\frac{x}{12\pi } = \frac{130}{360}

c) Resolving (b):

x = \frac{130.12.3.14}{360}

x = 13.6

The arc length for the image is 13.6 inches.

Find the area use 3.14 for pi
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

15.14 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = 4cm x 3 cm = 12cm^2

Radius of the circle = 2 cm

Area of 1/4 of a circle = (pi x r^2) / 4

= (3.14 x 4) / 4 = 3.14 cm^2

3.14 cm^2 + 12cm^2 = 15.14 cm^2

What is the perimeter of the fifth square in this pattern?
torisob [31]
The first square has side lengths of 4 units(because the square root of 16 is 4). The second square has side lengths of 8 units. The third square has side lengths of 12 units. As you can tell, the side lengths increase by 4. So the fourth square will have side lengths of 16 units, and the fifth square will have side lengths of 20 units. The question wants the perimeter, so the answer is 20*4(sum of 4 sides of equal lengths) which is 80 units.

Three highways connect the centers of three towns and
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

we know that

The circumcenter of a triangle is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect. It is also the center of the circumcircle, the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle

The distance of the circumcenter to the vertices of the triangle is equal to the radius of the circle

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

therefore

the answer is

The cell phone company must be place the new cell tower in the circumcenter of the triangle formed by the center of the three towns
