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>

Circle U is shown. Chords R T and Q S intersect at a point forming 4 angles. The top left angle is angle 1, and the top right an
Dima020 [189]

Based on the calculations, the measures of angles 1 and 2 are 50° and 135° respectively.

<h3>What is the theorem of intersecting chord?</h3>

The theorem of intersecting chord states that when two (2) chords intersect inside a circle, the measure of the angle formed by these chords is equal to one-half (½) of the sum of the two (2) arcs it intercepts.

By applying the theorem of intersecting chord to circle U shown in the image attached below, we can infer and logically deduce that angle 1 will be given by this formula:

m∠1 = ½(53 + 47)

m∠1 = ½(100)

m∠1 = 50°.

Since angles 1 and 2 are linear pair, they are supplementary angles. Thus, we have:

m∠1 + m∠2 = 180°

m∠2 = 180 - m∠1

m∠2 = 180 - 50

m∠2 = 130°.

Amanda's parents had a birthday dinner for her at Sushi Yama restaurant. The bill came to $74 before the tip. They left an 18% t
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

<h2>$87.32</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

we are told that the initial bill is $74

thereafter they gave a tip worth 18% of the bill

let us compute what 18% of $74 will amount to

Step two:

=18/100*74

=0.18*74

=$13.32

The added expenses is $13.32

Hence the total cost is

the initial bill plus the tip

=74+13.32

=$87.32

Answer:

A) Length = 110.4 mm and width = 62.1 mm

B) A = 6855.84 mm²

C) length = 114.7 mm

width = 55.8 mm

Area = 6400.26 mm²

D) Screen with aspect ratio of 16:9 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that the aspect ratio of the phone screen = 16:9. This means that the ratio of the length to the width of the screen is 16:9.

To find the side length, we will say that;

length = 16x

width = 9x

Thus, since the edges are perpendicular, then we can use pythagoras theorem since we know that the diagonal is 127 mm

Thus;

(16x)² + (9x²)] = 127²

256x² + 81x² = 16129

337x² = 16129

x² = 16129/337

x = √(16129/337)

x = 6.9

Thus;

length = 16x = 16 × 6.9 = 110.4 mm

width = 9x = 9 × 6.9 = 62.1 mm

Length = 110.4 mm and width = 62.1 mm

B) area of screen is;

A = length × width

A = 110.4 × 62.1

A = 6855.84 mm²

C) We are told that the aspect ratio is now 18.5:9.

Thus;

length = 18.5x

width = 9x

Thus;

(18.5x)² + (9x²)] = 127²

342.25x² + 81x² = 16129

423.25x² = 16129

x² = 16129/423.25

x = √(16129/423.25)

x = 6.2

length = 18.5x = 18.5 × 6.2 = 114.7 mm

width = 9x = 9 × 6.2 = 55.8 mm

Area = 114.7 × 55.8 = 6400.26 mm²

D) Screen with aspect ratio of 16:9 is bigger
