Answer:

x = 14.4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is similar triangles where the large one is proportional to the smaller triangle inscribed inside it. Lay the 2 triangles out like so and the 30(hypotenuse) is proportional to 18. You can use the scale factor to find the "x" by doing: 24/1.66666666667(which is the scale factor you get from 30/18). This should give you 14.4.

Answer:

$6\pi$ in

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the area of a circle: $\pi r^{2}$ , where $r$ is the radius.

The formula to find the circumference (perimeter) of a circle: $2\pi r$ , where $r$ is the radius.

1) To find the circumference of the circle, we need to find the radius ( $r$ ) first. Since the area of the circle is given to us, we need to equate this to the formula to find the area of a circle.

$9\pi =\pi r^2$
