Let x=height. then base is x+4. plug what we know into the formula for the area of a triangle
A=½bh
16=½*(x+4)*(x)
32=x²+4x
x²+4x-32=0
(x+8)(x-4)=0
so x can be-8 our 4. when we plug-8 in for x we get a negative height. since a triangle cannot have a negative side length we discard-8 and try 4. height=4 and base=8
Answer:
- The shaded region is 9.83 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Refer to attached diagram with added details.</em>
<h2>Given </h2>
Circle O with:
- OA = OB = OD - radius
- OC = OD = 2 cm
<h2>To find</h2>
<h2>Solution</h2>
Since r = OC + CD, the radius is 4 cm.
Consider right triangles OAC or OBC:
- They have one leg of 2 cm and hypotenuse of 4 cm, so the hypotenuse is twice the short leg.
Recall the property of 30°x60°x90° triangle:
- a : b : c = 1 : √3 : 2, where a- short leg, b- long leg, c- hypotenuse.
It means OC: OA = 1 : 2, so angles AOC and BOC are both 60° as adjacent to short legs.
In order to find the shaded area we need to find the area of sector OADB and subtract the area of triangle OAB.
Area of <u>sector:</u>
- A = π(θ/360)r², where θ- central angle,
- A = π*((mAOC + mBOC)/360)*r²,
- A = π*((60 + 60)/360))(4²) = 16.76 cm².
Area of<u> triangle AO</u>B:
- A = (1/2)*OC*(AC + BC), AC = BC = OC√3 according to the property of 30x60x90 triangle.
- A = (1/2)(2*2√3)*2 = 4√3 = 6.93 cm²
The shaded area is:
- A = 16.76 - 6.93 = 9.83 cm²
Answer:
it's A. sorry for the late answer
Answer:
Infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
2x−7y=12 (1)
−x+3.5y=−6 (2)
(2) x = 3.5y + 6
(1) 2(3.5y+6) - 7y = 12
7y + 12 - 7y = 12
12 = 12 (a true statement)
Since the variable got eliminated and we got a true statement, the system has infinitely many solutions.
One of the solutions:
(6,0)
