Answer:

The ladder is the hypotenuse and one side equals 5 feet.

From the Pythagorean Theorem we can calculate the other side:

other side^2 = 12^2 -5^2

other side^2 = 144 -25

other side^2 = 119

other side = 10.9087121146

Rounding, we get 11 feet.

Given: circle O with tangent AB mBC= 2x -16; mCD = x+40; mDE = x; mEB = 60 <br><br>find the x
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

69

Step-by-step explanation:

All the given arcs cover the entire circle circumference, so their measures add up to a full 360.

(2x - 16) + (x + 40) + x + 60 = 360

4x + 84 = 360

4x = 276

x = 69

There are 4 gear wheels on fixed axles next to each other, as shown. The first one has 30 gears, the second one 15, the third on
rjkz [21]

Answer:

The last gearwheel would make 3 revolutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of the revolution of a gear per minute is referred to as the speed ratio. The speed ratio is the ratio of the speed of the driver gear to that of the driven gear, or ratio of the number of teeth of the driven gear to the number of teeth of the driver gear.

In the given question, the second and third gears are idlers. while the first is the driver and the fourth the driven.

The revolution of the last gearwheel can be determined by;

Speed ratio =  \frac{number of teeth of the driven gear}{number of teeth of the driver gear}

                    = \frac{10}{30}

                    = \frac{1}{3}

Speed ratio = 1 : 3

The last gear would make 3 revolutions.
