The length of the side of the hexagon or square is 24 units.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that, a square and a regular hexagon have side of the same length.

The length is not given in the problem. So, let us assume the length of the side of hexagon or square as 'x'.

The additional information given is that, the perimeter of the square increased by 48 units will be equal to the perimeter of the hexagon.

  • The perimeter of the square = 4 × length of the side.
  • Then, the perimeter of the square increased by 48 units = (4x + 48).
  • The perimeter of the hexagon = 6 × length of the side.
  • Therefore, the perimeter of the hexagon = 6x.

<u>To calculate the length x of square and hexagon :</u>

Comparing both the perimeters of square and hexagon,

⇒ (4x + 48) = 6x

⇒ 48 = 6x-4x

⇒ 2x = 48

⇒ x = 48/2

⇒ x = 24 units.

The length of the side of the hexagon or square is 24 units.

Michael thought he could read 23 pages of his book in class. He was only able to read 20. what is his percent error
Cerrena [4.2K]
Percent error is calculated using

((Actual - predicted) / actual) * 100

In this case, the actual value of the number of pages he read is 20. The expected value was 23. So simply plug in:

((20 - 23) / 20) * 100 = -15%

Find the distance traveled by a particle with position (x, y) as t varies in the given time interval. x = 5 sin2 t, y = 5 cos2 t
rodikova [14]
\begin{cases}x(t)=5\sin2t\\y(t)=5\cos2t\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=10\cos2t\\\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-10\sin2t\end{cases}

The distance traveled by the particle is given by the definite integral

\displaystyle\int_C\mathrm dS=\int_0^{3\pi}\sqrt{\left(\frac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\frac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt

where C is the path of the particle. The distance is then

\displaystyle\int_0^{3\pi}\sqrt{100\cos^22t+100\sin^22t}\,\mathrm dt=10\int_0^{3\pi}\mathrm dt=30\pi
