Answer:

b = 32 units

Step-by-step explanation:

by Pythagoras theorem,

(40)^2 = 24^2 + b^2

1600 = 576 + b^2

1600 - 576 = b^2

1024 = b^2

b = √1024

b = 32

Answer:

the Pythagorean theorem states:  

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  in your case a=24 and c=40

Step-by-step explanation:

24^2 + b^2 = 40^2

24x24 + b^2 = 40x40

(576 + b^2 = 1600)  

b^2 = 1600 - 576

b^2 = 1024

b= √1024

b = 32

Final answer: 32

The figure below shows part of a stained-glass window depicting the rising sun. Which function can be used to find the area of t
Kryger [21]

Answer:

A(w) = w^2 + 5w - \frac{1}{8}\pi w^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A = the area of the region outside the semicircle but inside the rectangle

w = the width of the rectangle or diameter of the semicircle

Since "A" is determined by "w", therefore, "A" is a function of "w" = A(w).

A(w) = (area of rectangle) - (area of semicircle)

A(w) = (l*w) - (\frac{1}{2} \pi r^2)

Where,

lenght of rectangle (l) = w + 5

width of rectangle (w) = w

r = ½*w = \frac{w}{2}

Plug in the values:

A(w) = ((w + 5)*w) - (\frac{1}{2} \pi (\frac{w}{2})^2)

A(w) = ((w + 5)*w) - (\frac{1}{2} \pi (\frac{w}{2})^2)

Simplify

A(w) = (w^2 + 5w) - (\frac{1}{2} \pi (\frac{w^2}{4})

A(w) = w^2 + 5w - \frac{1}{2}*\pi*\frac{w^2}{4}* \pi

A(w) = w^2 + 5w - \frac{1*\pi*w^2}{2*4}

A(w) = w^2 + 5w - \frac{1*\pi w^2}{8}

A(w) = w^2 + 5w - \frac{1}{8}\pi w^2
