M=3 therefore y is slanted right downwards
There are 23 nickles in her purse
We know that
in a right triangle
Applying the Pythagoras Theorem
c²=a²+b²
in this problem
c=√87 yd
a=√23 yd
b=?
so
b²=c²-a²-----> b²=(√87)²-(√23)²----> b²=87-23----> b²=64----> b=8 yd
the answer is
8 yd
Answer: It represents the area of the two circular sides ("lids")
Explanation:
Imagine you made a cylinder out of 3 pieces of paper. The cylinder can be decomposed into two circular shapes (radius r) and one rectangular piece with two side lengths: one is "h", the other has to be long enough to go around each of the disks, so it has to be 2*pi*r long.
So the term 2*pi*r*h is the area of the rectangular piece and pi*r^2 is the area of each of the "lids" Since there are two of those, the term 2*pi*r^2 represents the area of the bottom and top lids.
Usually you are given more information about the rectangle such as distance of length in terms of width.
You know that the formula for perimeter is
P=2(l+w)
Substitute p and the other values to find width.
Hope I helped :)
