Answer:
distance = 994.75 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
given data
City A = 36°6′ = 36° + = 36.1° = 36.1° ×
= 0.6297 rad
City B = 21°42′ = 21° + = 21.7° = 21.7° ×
= 0.3785 rad
multiply by π/180 to convert the degree to radian
radius of Earth = 3960 miles
to find out
distance between City A and City B
solution
we first get here central angle between A and B city is
central angle between A and B city = 0.6297 rad - 0.3785 rad
and
now by arc length so we get distance
distance = 3960 miles × (0.6297 rad - 0.3785 rad )
distance = 994.75 miles
Answer:
r = (ab)/(a+b)
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the attached sketch. The diagram shows base b at the bottom and base a at the top. The height of the trapezoid must be twice the radius. The point where the slant side of the trapezoid is tangent to the inscribed circle divides that slant side into two parts: lengths (a-r) and (b-r). The sum of these lengths is the length of the slant side, which is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with one leg equal to 2r and the other leg equal to (b-a).
Using the Pythagorean theorem, we can write the relation ...
((a-r) +(b-r))^2 = (2r)^2 +(b -a)^2
a^2 +2ab +b^2 -4r(a+b) +4r^2 = 4r^2 +b^2 -2ab +a^2
-4r(a+b) = -4ab . . . . . . . . subtract common terms from both sides, also -2ab
r = ab/(a+b) . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of r
The radius of the inscribed circle in a right trapezoid is r = ab/(a+b).
