Answer: A 24 cm piece of string is cut into two pieces , one piece is used to form a circle and the other piece is used to form a square.
How should this string be cut so that the sum of the areas is a minimum .
:
Let x = the circumference of the circle
then
(24-x) = the perimeter of the square
:
Find the area of the circle
find r
2*pi*r = x
r =
Find the area of the circle
A =
A =
A = sq/cm, the area of the circle
:
Find the area of the square
A = sq/cm the area of the square
The total area
At = +
Graph this equation, find the min
Min occurs when x=10.6 cm
cut string 10.6 cm from one end
Step-by-step explanation: Hope I help out alot (-: :-)
M<J = m<N ( alternate angles)
m<K = m<M ( alternate angles)
so the third angles must also be equal ( total 180 degrees in each triangle)
Therefor the triangles are similar
30.
3/4 is equal to 75%, so take 75% of 40 by multiplying .75 by 40 to get 30
