Answer:  0.0386

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The population of 400 tall women has a mean height(\mu) of 179.832 cm and a standard deviation(\sigma) of 12.192 cm.

Let X be a random variable that represents the height of woman.

Sample size : n= 50

The probability that the mean for this sample group is above 182.88 will be :

P(\overline{X}>182.88)\\\\=P(\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}>\dfrac{182.88-179.832}{\dfrac{12.192}{\sqrt{50}}})\\\\ =P(Z>1.7678)\ \ \ [Z=\dfrac{\overline{X}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}]\\\\=1-P(Z

Hence, Required probability =  0.0386

The sides of a rhombus with angle of 60° are 6 inches. Find the area of the rhombus.
ehidna [41]
1. Check the drawing of the rhombus ABCD in the picture attached.

2. m(CDA)=60°, and AC and BD be the diagonals and let their intersection point be O.

3. The diagonals:
     i) bisect the angles so m(ODC)=60°/2=30°

     ii) are perpendicular to each other, so m(DOC)=90°

4. In a right triangle, the length of the side opposite to the 30° angle is half of the hypothenuse, so OC=3 in.

5. By the pythagorean theorem, DO= \sqrt{ DC^{2}- OC^{2} }=  \sqrt{ 6^{2}- 3^{2} }=\sqrt{ 36- 9 }=\sqrt{ 27 }= \sqrt{9*3}= 
=\sqrt{9}* \sqrt{3} =3\sqrt{3}  (in)

6. The 4 triangles formed by the diagonal are congruent, so the area of the rhombus ABCD = 4 Area (triangle DOC)=4*\frac{DO*OC}{2}=4 \frac{3 \sqrt{3} *3}{2}==2*9 \sqrt{3}=18 \sqrt{3} (in^{2})
