You're given an angle, the side adjacent to the angle, and are looking for the hypotenuse.
Use cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse.
cos(60) = 2√(3) / x
Rearrange the equation to solve for x (multiply both sides by x, then divide both sides by cos(60)).
x = (2√(3)) / (cos(60))
x equates to about 6.928
If

Answer:
a. 61.92 in²
b. 21.396 ≈ 21.4%
c. $4.71
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Amount of waste = area of rectangular piece of stock - area of two identical circles cut out
Area of rectangular piece of stock = 24 in × 12 in = 288 in²
Area of the two circles = 2(πr²)
Use 3.14 as π
radius = ½*12 = 6
Area of two circles = 2(3.14*6²) = 226.08 in²
Amount of waste = 288 - 226.08 = 61.92 in²
b. % of the original stock wasted = amount of waste ÷ original stock × 100
= 61.92/288 × 100 = 6,162/288 = 21.396 ≈ 21.4%
c. 288 in² of the piece of stock costs $12.00,
Each cut-out circle of 113.04 in² (226.08/2) will cost = (12*113.04)/288
= 1,356.48/288 = $4.71.
