Answer:

864\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a triangle is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}bh

A=24\ ft^2

24=\frac{1}{2}bh -------> 48=bh ------> equation A

where

b is the base of the triangle

h is the height of the triangle

In this problem the dimensions of the triangle are increased by a scale factor of 6

so

the new dimensions of the triangle are

b=6b, h=6h

The new area of the triangle will be

A1=\frac{1}{2}(6b)(6h)

A1=18bh ------> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B

A1=18[48]=864\ ft^2

A circle has a radius of 9 cm and a sector of the circle has an arc length of 9. 7cm
frutty [35]

Answer:

S = R θ      where θ is in radians

If θ  = 2 pi then S = 2 pi R       the circumference of the circle

θ = S / R = 9.7 / 9 = 1.08 rad

Since 1 rad = 360 / (2 pi) = 57.3 deg

the angle included = 1.08 rad * 57.3 deg/rad = 61.9 deg
