Answer:
The area is 16 inches squared and the perimeter is also 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area, you must multiply the length by the width. Since this is a square, you have to multiply one adjacent side by the other. For perimeter, you can either multiply one side by 4 or add all 4 sides.
I think this problem gave the data for the radius of earth so that we will know the conversion ratio between statute miles and nautical miles. However, you can simply search that. There are 1.15 statute miles in 1 nautical mile. Hence,
Distance in nautical miles = <span>884884 statute miles * 1 nautical mile/1.15 statute miles
<em>Distance =769,464.35 nautical miles</em></span>
Given:
Area of a triangle = (h*b) / 2
Area of smaller triangle = (4cm * 4cm) / 2 = 16cm² / 2 = 8 cm²
Area of larger triangle = (6cm * 10cm) / 2 = 60cm² / 2 = 30 cm²
30cm² - 8cm² = 22cm²
Probability that the point is inside the large triangle but outside the small triangle:
22cm² / 30cm² → 11/15 → 0.73 or 73%
1/2 is greater
1/2 = 0.5
3/8 = 0.375
