9514 1404 393

Explanation:

The figure shows a regular pentagon with the radius and the length of one side given. The Pythagorean theorem to find the missing side of the right triangle whose given sides are the pentagon radius and half the side length. That missing side is the apothem of the pentagon. As with any regular polygon, the area of this pentagon will be half the product of the perimeter and the apothem. The perimeter of a pentagon is 5 times the side length. All dimensions are in feet, so the area will be in square feet.

<em>Additional comment</em>

The working out was not requested, but here it is, anyway.

  a = √(40.8² -(48/2)²) = √1088.64 ≈ 32.99 . . . feet

  P = 5(48 ft) = 240 ft

  A = (1/2)Pa = (1/2)(240 ft)(32.99 ft) = 3959.3 ft²

Note that the radius has been rounded down to the nearest tenth. If the full-accuracy value were used, the area would be found to be 3963.98 ft².

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed ___________ and the lowest relative humidity is observed _____________
nikdorinn [45]

In general, the highest relative humidity is observed NEAR SUNRISE and the lowest relative humidity is observed during MID-AFTERNOON.

Relative humidity is inversely proportional to temperature. The colder the climate, the higher the relative humidity. The hotter the temperatures outside, the lower the relative humidity.

Relative humidity increases as the air temperature falls at night and peaks at dawn.  

Temperature peaks during mid-afternoon, thus relative humidity is at its lowest.

What is the term used for the removal and transport of sediment on the earth's surface? magmatism mechanical weathering chemical
natulia [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is erosion

Explanation:

  • Magmatism refers to the positioning of magma on the outer surface and within the layers of a terrestrial planet which on cooling solidifies into igneous rocks.
  • Mechanical weathering is the process of breaking of big rocks into tiny or smaller pieces. It is basically a process of conversion of big rocks into sediments thus leading to the formation of soil.
  • Chemical Weathering is the process of breaking down of big rocks into tiny pieces by chemical reactions instead of mechanical processes.
  • Erosion is the process of removal of soil, sediments and dissolved substance from one location and transporting it to another location on earth crust.
  • Metamorphism is the process of change in the structure or com[position of a rock by the action of pressure, temperature or other natural forces.
