Answer: $3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The perimeter of one equilateral triangle is P

The lengths of the equilateral triangle are equal

Suppose x is the length of each side

$\therefore 3\times x=P\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{P}{3}$

i.e.

$\Rightarrow 3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P$

The missing angle of the right triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A)

<h3>How to find a missing angle by triangle properties</h3>

Triangles are geometrical figures formed by three sides and whose sum of internal angles equals 180°. There are two kind of triangles existing in this question: (i) Right triangles, (ii) Isosceles triangles.

Right triangles are triangles which one of its angles equals 90° and isosceles triangles are triangles which two of its sides have equal measures.

According to the statement, we know that triangle BQR is an isosceles triangle, whereas triangles ABC, ANB and NBC are right triangles. Based on the figure attached below, we have the following system of linear equations based on right triangles ABC and NBC:

2 · x + 90 + θ = 180 (1)

(90 - x) + 90 + θ = 180 (2)

By equalizing (1) and (2) we solve the system for x:

2 · x = 90 - x

3 · x = 90

x = 30

And by (1) we solve the system for θ:

θ = 180 - 2 · x - 90

θ = 30

The missing angle of the right triangle ABC has a measure of 30°. (Correct answer: A) $\blacksquare$

Find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by rotating about the x--axis the region bounded by the given curves.

kherson [118]

Answer:

$=\frac{364\pi}{3}$ cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find the volume of the solid of revolution formed by rotating about the x--axis the region bounded by the given curves.

f(x)=2x+1, y=0, x=0, x=4.

The picture is given as shaded region.

This is rotated about x axis

Limits for x are already given as 0 and 4

f(x) is a straight line

The solid formed would be a cone

Volume = $\pi \int\limits^a_b {(2x+1)^2} \, dx \\= \pi \int\limits^4_0 {(4x^2+4x+1)} \, dx \\=\pi [\frac{4x^3}{3} +2x^2+x]^5_0\\\\=\pi[\frac{4*4^3}{3}+2*4^2+4-0]\\=\frac{364\pi}{3}$

Start with the value of 25, double it, and then calculate the percent increase.

Zanzabum

Answer: 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

If you start with 25 and double it you will get 50 and 25 is half of 50 so the percent increase will be 100%.
