Answer:

Area of sector is 6pi cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically pi radians is 180 degrees

thus pi/6 radians is 180/6 = 30 degrees

The formula for the length of an arc is;

theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

where theta in this case is 30 degrees

And the arc length is pi

so we have

30/360 * 2 * pi * r = pi

30/360 * 2 * r = 1

60r = 360

r = 360/60

r = 6 cm

Now the area of a sector is;

theta/360 * pi * r^2

30/360 * pi * 36

= 6pi cm^2

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

The volume of a right circular cylinder is calculated by a function of two variables,

$v(x,y)=\pi x^{2} y,$

where x is the radius of the right circular cylinder and y represents the height of the cylinder. Evaluate V(2, 5) and explain what this means

If the sine of an acute angle is 3/5, what is the cosine of<br> that angle?

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The cosine of the angle is 4/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

An acute angle is between 0º and 90º, in the first quadrant of the trigonometric circle, in which both the sine and the cosine are positive values.

For each angle $\alpha$ , we have that:

$\sin^{2}{\alpha} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1$

We have that:

$\sin{\alpha} = \frac{3}{5}$

$\sin^{2}{\alpha} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1$

$(\frac{3}{5})^{2} + \cos^{2}{\alpha} = 1$

$\cos^{2}{\alpha} = \frac{16}{25}$

$\cos{\alpha} = \frac{4}{5}$

The cosine of the angle is 4/5.

A car traveled 300 meters in 30 seconds. A truck traveled 600 meters in 60 seconds. Which car was faster ?

rewona [7]

Multiply the car by 2: 300 meters x 2 = 600 meters

30 seconds x 2 = 60 seconds.

The car also traveled 600 meters in 60 seconds, so the speed of the vehicles are the same.

No vehicle was faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: You would multiply 2/3 by 3/4.

(Hint: if it is ____ of ____, you would most likely multiply)

Step 2: 2×3/3×4

Step 3: 2×3=6

Step 4: 3×4=12

Step 5: 6/12

Step 6: Simplify 6/12 = 3/6 = 1/2
