Answer:

As this is incomplete, it lacks the value of actual error.

Here, we do not know the actual value. so let's assume it is 1 inch

Relative Error = 6.25 % ≈ 6.3% = D

Step-by-step explanation:

As this is incomplete, it lacks the value of actual error.

We are asked to calculate the relative of the measurement.

Relative error formula = Actual error/Measurement x 100

Here, we do not know the actual value. so let's assume it is 1 inch

Actual value = 1 inch

Measurement = 16 inch

Relative Error = 1/16 x 100

Relative Error = 6.25 % ≈ 6.3% = D

D. 6.3%

★ Sanya has a piece of land which is in the shape of a rhombus.

★ She wants her one daughter and one son to work on the land and produce different crops, for which she divides the land in two equal parts.

★ Perimeter of land = 400 m.

★ One of the diagonal = 160 m.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{To \: Find :}}}}}}$

★ Area each of them [son and daughter] will get.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Solution :}}}}}}$

Let, ABCD be the rhombus shaped field and each side of the field be $x$

[ All sides of the rhombus are equal, therefore we will let the each side of the field be $x$ ]

Now,

• Perimeter = 400m

$\longrightarrow \tt AB+BC+CD+AD=400m$

$\longrightarrow \tt x + x + x + x=400$

$\longrightarrow \tt 4x=400$

$\longrightarrow \tt \: x = \dfrac{400}{4}$

$\longrightarrow \tt x= \red{100m}$

$\therefore$ Each side of the field = <u>100m</u><u>.</u>

Now, we have to find the area each [son and daughter] will get.

So, For $\triangle$ ABD,

Here,

• a = 100 [AB]

• b = 100 [AD]

• c = 160 [BD]

$\therefore \tt Simi \: perimeter \: [S] = \boxed{ \sf \dfrac{a + b + c}{2} }$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = \dfrac{100 + 100 + 160}{2}$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = \cancel{ \dfrac{360}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = 180m$

Using <u>herons formula</u><u>,</u>

$\star \tt Area \: of \: \triangle = \boxed{\bf{{ \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c) } }}} \star$

where

• s is the simi perimeter = 180m

• a, b and c are sides of the triangle which are 100m, 100m and 160m respectively.

<u>Putt</u><u>ing</u><u> the</u><u> values</u><u>,</u>

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180(180 - 100)(180 - 100)(180 - 160) }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180(80)(80)(20) }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180 \times 80 \times 80 \times 20 }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{9 \times 20 \times 20 \times 80 \times 80}$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{ {3}^{2} \times {20}^{2} \times {80}^{2} }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = 3 \times 20 \times 80$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \red{ 4800 \: {m}^{2} }$

Thus, area of $\triangle$ ABD = <u>4800 m²</u>

As both the triangles have same sides

So,

Area of $\triangle$ BCD = 4800 m²

<u>Therefore, area each of them [son and daughter] will get = 4800 m²</u>

Based on your knowledge of taxes, you estimate that your net pay will be 66% of your gross pay. You think you will need $250 per

Sholpan [36]

The gross pay per year is $\fbox{\bf\$19697.6}$ .

Further explanation:

Given:

The net pay is 66% of the gross pay. The net pay per week is $250.

Calculation:

Consider the gross pay as $x$ and net pay as $y$ .

Since the net pay $y$ is 66% of the gross pay $x$ , it can be written as follows:

$\begin{aligned}\frac{{x\times66}}{{100}}&=y\\x&=\frac{{y\times 100}}{{66}}\\x&=1.5151y\\\end{aligned}$

The net pay per week is given as $250.

Substitute 250 for $y$ in above equation.

$\begin{aligned}x&=1.5151\left( {250}\right)\\&= 378.8\,\,{\text{dollar}}\,\,{\text{per}}\,{\text{week}}\\\end{aligned}$

Since, there exist 52 weeks in a year, the gross pay per year is calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}x &= 378.8\left({52} \right)\\&= 19697.6\,\,{\text{dollar}}\,\,{\text{per}}\,{\text{year}}\\\end{aligned}$

Thus, the gross pay per year is $19697.6.

Mumz [18]

<h3>Answer: 95 degrees</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

I recommend drawing it out to see what's going on. See the drawing below.

In the diagram, both angles are in the northeast corner of their four-corner configurations. They are both congruent corresponding angles. So that's why the second angle is also 95 degrees.

Side note: we could replace "northeast" with any of the other directions on the compass (such as southwest). All that matters is that they are in the same configuration.
