Answer:
pi [π] is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, and it is constant [meaning it is always the case] for all circles.
{this is a <em>long </em>number, 3.141592653589793238... is not even the full length, but 3.14 [or 3.14159] is typically used for estimation}
The significance of pi is typically centered in math--it can be used to find values that we don't know of circles. There are other areas of math that have been related back to the value of pi--which is incredible, and genuinely relevant.
We can find pi in the shape of rivers, physics--including waves--DNA
[+ anywhere there is a circle]
hope this helps!! :)
Anddddddddddddd? what else?
Let x=ab=ac, and y=bc, and z=ad.
Since the perimeter of the triangle abc is 36, you have:
Perimeter of abc = 36
ab + ac + bc = 36
x + x + y = 36
(eq. 1) 2x + y = 36
The triangle is isosceles (it has two sides with equal length: ab and ac). The line perpendicular to the third side (bc) from the opposite vertex (a), divides that third side into two equal halves: the point d is the middle point of bc. This is a property of isosceles triangles, which is easily shown by similarity.
Hence, we have that bd = dc = bc/2 = y/2 (remember we called bc = y).
The perimeter of the triangle abd is 30:
Permiter of abd = 30
ab + bd + ad = 30
x + y/2 + z =30
(eq. 2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
So, we have two equations on x, y and z:
(eq.1) 2x + y = 36
(eq.2) 2x + y + 2z = 60
Substitute 2x + y by 36 from (eq.1) in (eq.2):
(eq.2') 36 + 2z = 60
And solve for z:
36 + 2z = 60 => 2z = 60 - 36 => 2z = 24 => z = 12
The measure of ad is 12.
If you prefer a less algebraic reasoning:
- The perimeter of abd is half the perimeter of abc plus the length of ad (since you have "cut" the triangle abc in two halves to obtain the triangle abd).
- Then, ad is the difference between the perimeter of abd and half the perimeter of abc:
ad = 30 - (36/2) = 30 - 18 = 12
It is 39
Because you have to count the little dots all the way till it is around the most age.
Answer:
8.5 or 8½
Step-by-step explanation:
Arranged numbers in ascending order
2, 6, 8, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14
Median = middle number i. e 8 and 9
Therefore median = 8 + 9 divided by 2
= 17 divided 2
= 8.5
Answers = 8.5 or 8½
