Answer:

The answer to your question is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-3, -1)

B (-3 , 5)

length of a side = 8 units

Process

1.- Calculate the distance between A and B

dAB = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2}}

x1 = -3     y1 = -1

x2 = -3    y2 = 5

-Substitution

dAB = \sqrt{(-3 + 3)^{2}+ (5 + 1)^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{0^{2} + 6^{2}}

dAB = \sqrt{36}

dAB = 6 u

2.- Calculate the diagonal using the Pythagorean theorem.

    c² = a² + b²

    c² = 6² + 8²

    c² = 36 + 64

    c² = 100

    c = 10 units

- Conclusion

The diagonal of the rectangle measures 10 units

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest tenth. PLZ HELP
Ksju [112]

Answer:

30.96 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

In white there are four parts of a circle, so we can split the 12 m in half to show the radius, and then solve to find the area of the full circle.

A = r²

a = (6)²

a = (36)

a = 113.04

Then you find the area of the whole box.

12 x 12 = 144

Then you subtract the area of the circle in white from the area of the whole box.

144 - 113.04 = 30.96 m²

So that’s the area of the shaded region.

If f(x)=1/x+2 what is f(3+h)?
Wittaler [7]
I don't know if you want the whole x+2 on the bottom or not, but I will put it on the bottom for now.
Replace x with (3+h)

f(3+h)=1/[(3+h)+2]

Now if it's supposed to be JUST x in the denominator...
Replace x with (3+h)

f(3+h)=1/(3+h)+2


Best wishes!
