First, we must determine the circumference of the paddle wheel.
The formula for the circumference of a circle is:
c = 2πr
Where r is the radius of the circle. However, we know d = 2r where d is the diameter of the circle.
Therefore:
c = 2rπ = dπ
Substituting 8ft for d gives a circumference of:
c = 8πft
The time it takes to complete 1 revolution can be found using the formula:
t = d/s
Where:
t is the time it takes: what we are solving for in this problem.
d is the distance traveled: we calculated this as 8πft
s is the speed traveled: from the problem we know this is
6.7ft/sec
Substituting and calculating t gives:
t = 8πft / (6.7ft/sec)
t = 1.2πsec
Two find how long it would take for 100 revolutions we can multiply this time by 100
100 × 1.6πsec ⇒ 122.2πsec
If a number is required for the answer we can use 3.14 as an estimate for π giving:
122.2πsec ⇒ 122.2 × 3.14sec ⇒ 383sec

1.) List all interior angles (see image)
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

1. Interior angles:- B and F

                                C and G

2. Corresponding angles:- E and G

                                              F and H

                                              A and C

                                              B and D

3. Equal

4. Angle A = 105

    Angle C = 105

    Angle D = 75

    Angle E = 75

    Angle F = 105

    Angle G = 75

     Angle H = 105

5. Angle D

6. Angle B = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The pairs of angles on one side of the transversal but inside the two lines are called Consecutive Interior Angles.

∴ Pair of interior angles are:- 1)  B and F

                                                  2) C and G

2. Corresponding angles:- the angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others.

∴ Pair of corresponding angles:- 1) A and C

                                                        2) B and D

                                                        3) E and G

                                                        4) F and H

3. Angle D and E are equal as they form alternate exterior angles.

4. Angle B = 75 degrees

Angle A = (180-B) = 105 degrees

Angle C = (180-B) = 105 degrees(interior angles)

Angle D = B = 75 degrees(corresponding angles)

Angle E = B = 75 degrees(congruent angles)

Angle F = (180-B) = 105 degrees

Angle G = B = 75 degrees(alternate interior angles)

Angle A = (180-B) = 105 degrees

5. Angle D

6. Angle F = 115 degrees

Angle B = (180-115) = 65 degrees
