Answer:

Diameter = 19.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Imaging a radius line from O to the endpoints of the 7. call this line R.

Label the part of the vertical line from O to the 90 degree intersection y.

Now you have a right triangle.

Using the Pythagorean theorem:

R² = 7² + y²

also

y = R - 3

substitute for y:

R² = 49 + (R-3)²

R² = 49 + R² - 6R + 9

simplify:

0 = 58 - 6R

6R = 58

R = 9.6667

Diameter = 2(9.6667) = 19.33

Anyone know how to find the area of an equilateral triangle circumscribed about a circle, given the radius of the circle?

tia_tia [17]

Warning: This might be rough...
First draw it out. Label the angles at the corners of the triangle 60 (definition of equilateral triangles). Now draw a line from the center of the circle to the corner, splitting the corner in half. Label this line R and a corner as 30 degrees. No to find the height of this triangle, you do rsin(30). The base of this triangle is 2rcos(30). Now find the area of this mini triangle (rsin(30)*2rcos(30)/2=r/2*rsqrt(3)/2=r^2sqrt(3)/4). Now multiply this by 3 because you have 3 mini triangles... to get...
r^2 3sqrt(3)/4

Two parallel lines are crossed by a transversal. What is the value of h? h = 60 h = 80 h = 100 h = 120

lisabon 2012 [21]

I added the diagram of the question.

Answer:
h = 60°

Explanation:
We are given that lines k and l are parallel lines.
This means that angles 120° and h are supplementary angles.
This means that their measures add up to 180°

Therefore:
180° = 120° + h
h = 180° - 120°
h = 60°

Hope this helps :)
