Regular hexagon ABCDEF has a perimeter of 36. O is the center of the hexagon and of circle O. Circles A, B, C, D, E, and F have

centers at A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively.

Answer:

E. (54\sqrt{3}-27\pi\)

Step-by-step explanation:

I draw the figure described by the statement down there so you can see easily how to solve it.

Notice 3 things:

- The length of one side of the hexagon is simply 36 divided by 6. = 6 This is beacause, by nature, every single side of the hexagon has the same length.

- The radius of each circle is half the length of one side of the hexagon. This would mean that the radius of each circle is 3.

- The outer circles have 120°/360° of its area enclose. We get this value because by definition, the hexagon can be divided into 6 regular triangles, each one with every angle equal to 60°. The size of the internal angles of the hexagon will be twice this value.

So, in summary, The area enclosed by the circles is expressed like this:

Acircles = 6 * \frac{120}{360} * π * (r)² + π*r² = 3 * π * r² = 27 π

Now all we need is the area of the regular hexagon, which is simply:

Ahexagon = \frac{1}{2}* p * a

Where p is the perimeter, given by the problem, and a is its apothem, the distance between the center of the hexagon and the middle of one of its sides, that is found by multiplying the length of a side of the hexagon times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}.

Ahexagon = \frac{1}{2} * 36 * 6 * \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} = 54\sqrt{3}.

Then, the area of the shaded area is equal to:

Ashaded = Ahexagon - Acircles = 54\sqrt{3} - 27π

A chemist is using 333 milliliters of a solution of acid and water. If 19.6% of the solution is acid, how many milliliters of ac
sesenic [268]

65.27mm of acid is present in solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Quantity of solution = 333mm

Acid Percentage = 19.6%

Quantity of acid = 19.6% of Quantity of Solution

Quantity\ of\ acid=\frac{19.6}{100}*333\\Quantity\ of\ acid=\frac{6526.8}{100}\\Quantity\ of\ acid=65.27mm

65.27mm of acid is present in solution.

The straight line P has the equation y= 2x-5
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

y=−x/2+2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=2x−5.

The slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m=−12.

So, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=−x/2+a.

To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point: 3=(−12)⋅(−2)+a.

Thus, a=2.

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=−x/2+2.

Consider the following set of equations, where s, s0, x and r have units of length, t has units of time, v has units of velocity
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

For an equation to be dimensionally correct the dimension of quantities on both sides of equation must be same.

Also, two physically quantities can only be added or subtracted only when their dimension are same.

here all option are dimensionally correct except the 5th option where

dimension of t= [T] whereas dimension of a/v is \frac{LT^{-2}}{LT^{-1}}

= T^{-1}

since, the dimension of quantities on either sides of equation are not the same the equation is dimensionally is incorrect.

Answer: Y = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

-x + y = -27

-17 + y = -27

+17 +17

Y = -10

You can also check your work by plugging in the X and Y values and it should equal -27 . So -17 + -10 equals -27.
