Answer: I got $500

Step-by-step explanation: What I did was I took the percent and rewrote it as 0.40, and then I did (1 - 0.40) From there you get 0.6 and take $300 divided by 0.6, so it should look like this ->

1. 40%=0.40

2. 1 - 0.40

3. = 0.6

4. 300 divided by 0.6 = 500.

Hopefully this was helpful

1)a chord of length 18cm midway the radius of a circle. calculate the radius of the circle correct to 1d.p. 2)if two parallel ch

kykrilka [37]

Part 1:

Given that the length of the chord is 18 cm and the chord is midway the radius of the circle.

Thus, half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle is given by:

$\cos\theta=\frac{\left( \frac{1}{2} r\right)}{r}= \frac{1}{2} \\ \\ \Rightarrow\theta=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)=60^o$

Now,

$\sin60^o= \frac{9}{r} \\ \\ \Rightarrow r= \frac{9}{\sin60^o} =10.392$

Therefore, the radius of the circle is 10.4 cm to 1 d.p.

Part 2I:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10 cm and the length of chord AB is 8 cm. Thus, half the length of the chord is 4cm. Let the distance of the mid-point O to /AB/ be x and half the angle formed by the chord at the centre of the circle be θ, then

$\sin\theta= \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \\ \\ \theta=\sin^{-1}\left( \frac{2}{5} \right)=23.6^o$

Now,

$\cos23.6^o= \frac{x}{10} \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=10\cos23.6^o=9.165\approx9.2cm$

Part 2II:

Given that the radius of the circle is 10cm and the angle distended is 80 degrees. Let half the length of chord CD be y, then:

$\sin40^o= \frac{y}{10} \\ \\ \\ \Rightarrow y=10\sin40^o=6.428$

Thus, the length of chord CD = 2(6.428) = 12.856 which is approximately 12.9 cm.
