Answer:

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is given by ...

V = πr^2·h

For a sphere, the volume is ...

V = 4/3πr^3

You want the volumes to be the same when h=8, so we have ...

πr^2·8 = 4/3πr^3

Dividing by πr^2, we have ...

8 = 4/3r

r = 3/4·8 = 6

The radius is 6 feet.

Ivan used coordinate geometry to prove that quadrilateral EFGH is a square.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

(A)Segment EF, segment FG, segment GH, and segment EH are congruent

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Quadrilateral EFGH with points E(-2,3), F(1,6), G(4,3), H(1,0)

Step 2

Using the distance formula

$Distance=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Given E(-2,3), F(1,6)

$|EF|=\sqrt{(6-3)^2+(1-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given F(1,6), G(4,3)

$|FG|=\sqrt{(3-6)^2+(4-1)^2}=\sqrt{3^2+3^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given G(4,3), H(1,0)

$|GH|=\sqrt{(0-3)^2+(1-4)^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(-3)^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Given E (−2, 3), H (1, 0)

$|EH|=\sqrt{(0-3)^2+(1-(-2))^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(3)^2}=\sqrt{18}=3\sqrt{2}$

Step 3

Segment EF ,E (−2, 3), F (1, 6)

Slope of |EF|= $\frac{6-3}{1+2} =\frac{3}{3}=1$

Segment GH, G (4, 3), H (1, 0)

Slope of |GH| $= \frac{0-3}{1-4} =\frac{-3}{-3}=1$

Step 4

Segment EH, E(−2, 3), H (1, 0)

Slope of |EH| $= \frac{0-3}{1+2} =\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

Segment FG, F (1, 6,) G (4, 3)

Slope of |EH| $=\frac{3-6}{4-1} =\frac{-3}{3}=-1$

Step 5

Segment EF and segment GH are perpendicular to segment FG.

The slope of segment EF and segment GH is 1. The slope of segment FG is −1.

Step 6

Segment EF, segment FG, segment GH, and segment EH are congruent.

The slope of segment FG and segment EH is −1. The slope of segment GH is 1.

Step 7

All sides are congruent, opposite sides are parallel, and adjacent sides are perpendicular. Quadrilateral EFGH is a square

Lines DE and AB intersect at point C.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+2+5x+3=180 (angles on a straight line)

7x+5=180

7x=180-5

7x=175

x=25 (dividing both sides by 7)

Radda [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

if the car speeds at a constant rate of 32mi/m

the number of miles travelled in the next 25 min

= 32 mi/m ×25m

800 miles in the next 25 min
