A circle has a circumference of 6. It has an arc of length 17/3. What is the central angle of the arc, in degrees?

Answer:

340 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

So the key thing here is to notice that we are given the circumference which will allow us to find a value for the radius of the circle and hence the angle subtended by the arc (the central angle).

So the circumference of a circle = 2pi(r)

This means:

6 = 2pi(r)

Which means that

r = 6/2pi or r = 3/pi

Now we can use this value of r to find our angle in conjunction with the value of the arc length. So:

Arc length is defined by: length = θr

Where θ is our angle value.

So lets plug in:

\frac{17}{3} = (angle)\frac{3}{\pi }

Multiply by pi to get:

\frac{17\pi }{3} = 3(angle)

Divide by 3 to get that:

θ = 17pi/9

So if we convert that from radians to degrees we get 340 degrees.

ABC is an equilateral triangle .Three distinct points are marked on each sides of the triangle. (not on the vertices). (i) How m
iVinArrow [24]

The number of lines and triangles illustrates combination

  • 36 lines can be drawn to join the nine points
  • 84 triangles can be drawn using the nine points

<h3>The number of lines that can be drawn</h3>

The given parameters are:

Total points, n = 9

Total points on each line, r = 2

The number of lines that can be drawn is then calculated  using the following combination formula

Lines = nCr

This gives

Lines = 9C2

Evaluate the combination expression

Lines = 36

Hence, 36 lines can be drawn to join the nine points

<h3>The number of triangles that can be drawn</h3>

The given parameters are:

Total points, n = 9

Total points on each triangle, r = 3

The number of triangles that can be drawn is then calculated  using the following combination formula

Triangles = nCr

This gives

Triangles = 9C3

Evaluate the combination expression

Triangles = 84

Hence, 84 triangles can be drawn using the nine points

3. What is the measure of angle B from the right triangle below?
Talja [164]

Answer:

angle B = 78.46°

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the cosine ratio

cosB=\frac{2}{10} =0.2

B=cos^{-1} (0.2)=78.46^{0}

Hope this helps

What is the equation of this line in standard form
Yuri [45]

Line joining (-3, -1) and (1/2, 2)

Point point form for a line is

(c-a)(y-b) = (d-b)(x-a)

(1/2 - - 3)(y - -1) = (2 - -1)(x - -3)

(7/2)(y+1)=3(x+3)

7(y+1)=6(x+3)

7 - 6(3) = 6x - 7y

6x - 7y = -11

Answer: second choice, 6x - 7y = -11
