Answer:

a. y = 12\times \frac{1}{x^2} \\b. x = 2 , when \ y =3

Step-by-step explanation:

y \ is\ inversely  \ proportional \  to \  square \  of \  x \ means , y \  \alpha \ \frac{1}{x^2}

Therefore, y = k \times \frac{1}{x^2}

Given y = 48, x = 1/2. We will find k.

                 y = k \times \frac{1}{x^2}\\\\48 = k \times \frac{1}{\frac{1}{4}}}\\\\k = 48 \times \frac{1}{4} =12

Find x.

y = k \times \frac{1}{x^2} \\\\3 = 12 \times \frac{1}{x^2}\\\\\frac{3}{12} =  \frac{1}{x^2}\\\\x^2 = \frac{12}{3}\\\\x^2 = 4 \\\\x = 2

Here's a diagram showing how to combine angles LDA (in red) and angle ADE (in blue). Hopefully it becomes a bit clearer why these two angles add up to line segment LE. Erase the shared segment DA if it helps show LE better.

See attached image below.

What is the value of x?enter your answer in the box .
Katarina [22]

By pythagoras Theorem.

x² +12²=13²

=>x² +144 =169

=>x² =169-144=25

=>x=√25=5 unit.

Hence x=5 is your answer.

Hope it helps...

ivanzaharov [21]
We know that

[length of a circle]=2*pi*r
r=12 in
[length of a circle]=2*pi*12--------------> 24pi in

if 360° (full circle)--------------------> has a length of 24pi in
X-------------------------------------------> 8pi

X=8pi*360/24pi-----------> 120°

the answer is 120°
