Answer:
? = 13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
the angle between a tangent and the diameter = 90°
Then the triangle is right with legs 2 × 6 = 12 and 6.4
using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.
the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the legs , that is
? ² = 12² + 6.4² = 144 + 40.96 = 184.96 ( take square root of both sides )
? = = 13.6
Apparently, the calculator at the link in your lesson is fully capable of giving you the necessary numbers. My own TI-84 work-alike gives me the account balances, but the rest of the numbers need to be figured.
In 30 years, there are 12×30 = 360 months, or 4×30 = 120 quarters. See the calculator results below. Your table can be filled in using the given information to find the contribution amount. The calculator gives the final balance. The interest amount is found by subtracting the contribution amount from the final balance.
