Answer:

x ≈ 9.5 , y ≈ 15.3

Step-by-step explanation:

sin32° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{x}{18}$ ( multiply both sides by 18 )

18 × sin32° = x , then

x ≈ 9.5 ( to the nearest tenth )

cos32° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{y}{18}$ ( multiply both sides by 18 )

18 × cos32° = y , then

y ≈ 15.3 ( to the nearest tenth )

How much greater is the area of a a square with a side length of 8 inches than the area of a circle with radius of 4 inches?

expeople1 [14]

Area of a square= l²
= 8×8 = 64 in²

Area of a circle= πr²
= π × 4²
= 50.3 in²
Difference = 64 - 50.3 = 13.7 in²

The altitude (i.e., height) of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/minute while the area of the triangle is increasing at

aksik [14]

The formula for the area of a triangle is
$A=\frac{1}{2}bh$
$\rightarrow\frac{dA}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}(b\frac{dh}{dt}+h\frac{db}{dt})$

We are given:
$\frac{dh}{dt}=2$
$\frac{dA}{dt}=4.5$
$h=9.5$
$A=92$

Plug in:
$4.5=\frac{1}{2}(b*2+9.5\frac{db}{dt})$
We can find $b$ with:
$A=\frac{1}{2}bh\rightarrowb=\frac{2A}{h}=\frac{2*92}{9.5}=\frac{184}{9.5}$
So $4.5=\frac{1}{2}(2*\frac{184}{9.5}+9.5\frac{db}{dt})$
$\rightarrow9=\frac{368}{9.5}+9.5\frac{db}{dt}$
$\rightarrow9-\frac{368}{9.5}=9.5\frac{db}{dt}$
$\rightarrow\frac{db}{dt}=\frac{9-\frac{368}{9.5}}{9.5}\approx-3.130$

So the base is decreasing at a rate of 3.130 cm/minute.
