The apothem is the distance from the center to the midpoint of one of the sides of a regular polygon.  You can make a right triangle with the apothem, the line from the midpoint to the corner and the line from the center to the corner.  An equilateral triangle has 60 degree angles (180/3).  The right triangle has half of one of those angles so 30 degrees.  Now we have a 30-60-90 triangle where the short leg is 5cm.  The long leg, which is also half of one side of the triangle is thus 5\sqrt{3}.  A whole side of the triangle is 10\sqrt{3}.  Multiply that by 3 to get the perimeter of <span>30\sqrt{3}.</span>

mario62 [17]

Answer:

c. y = -35*x + 105

Step-by-step explanation:

Lo que demos hacer es calcular los puntos cuando x = 0 y cuando x = 3, es decir el inicio y el fin del recorrido.

Cuando x es igual 0, y = 105, por lo tanto, la función sería:

y = A*x + 105

Cuando x = 3, y = 0, por lo tanto:

0 =  3*A +  105

resolvemos para A:

3*A =  -105

A = -105/3

A =  -35

Por lo tanto la función es:

y = -35*x + 105

es decir, la opción c.

Natalia is making a pizza. The radius of the pizza is 25 inches. What is
aniked [119]

(b)(b)=25 cm2

b2=25 cm2

√(b2)=√(25 cm2)

b= 5 cm

Please note the square root of 25 was taken, as well as the square root of cm2.

Perimeter=4b

Perimeter=4(5 cm)

Perimeter=20 cm

Step:

A circle of radius = 12.5 or diameter = 25 or circumference = 78.54 cm has an area of: 4.909 × 10-8 square kilometers (km²) 0.04909 square meters (m²)

louis makes a$15 [er hour working at the mall. which equation represents the total amout of money, d, louis makes in h hours?
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

15H = D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Louis makes $ 15 per hour working at the mall, to determine which equation represents the total amout of money, D, Louis makes in H hours, the following calculation must be performed:

15H = D

So, for example, if Louis worked 10 hours, the equation would operate as follows:

15 x 10 = D

150 = D
