18 is the answer I believe hopefully this is correct
Graphing is one way to do the problem.But sometimes, graphing it is hard to do.So here’s an algebraic method.
If M(m1, m2) is the midpoint of two points A(x1, y1) and B(x2, y2),then m1 = (x1 + x2)/2 and m2 = (y1 + y2)/2.In other words, the x-coordinate of the midpointis the average of the x-coordinates of the two points,and the y-coordinate of the midpointis the average of the y-coordinates of the two points.
Let B have coordinates (x2, y2) in our problem.Then we have that 6 = (2 + x2)/2 and 8 = (3 + y2)/2.
Solving for the coordinates gives x2 = 10, y2 = 13
First you need to find the area of the circle, which is πr^2
With a radius of 8 inches, the area of the circle will be π*8^2 or 64π.
Next you want to find the area of the 120 degree section of that circle.
120 degrees is 1/3 of a circle, so all you have to do next is multiply the are of the circle by 1/3 (because 360/120= 1/3).
(1/3)(64π) --> All you really have to do here is multiply 64 by 1/3 or divide it by 3 (because to divide by a number is the same a multiplying by it's reciprocal) so you get (64/3)(π).
64/3 is 21 and 1/3 or 21.333..., so however you choose to write it, I will leave the answer as (64/3)π squared inches.
Answer:
About 254.469 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of a circle, you need to multiply the square of the radius by pi. To find the radius of a circle, you need to divide the diameter by 2, which in this case is 18/2=9. Now, you can plug it into the formula to find that the area of this circle is
