Answer:

12 sides

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of sides of a regular polygon with the sum of interior angles of 1800 degrees, we will follow the steps below;

first write down the formula for finding sum of the interior angle of a polygon

s= (n-2)180

where s is the sum of the interior angle and n is the number of side

from the question given, sum of the interior angle s=1800 degrees

substitute s=1800 degree into the formula and solve for n

s= (n-2)180

1800 = (n-2)180

divide both-side of the equation by 180

1800/180 = n-2

10 = n - 2

add 2 to both-side of the equation

10 + 2 = n

12 = n

n= 12

The polygon have 12 sides

Cone details:

height: h cm

radius: r cm

Sphere details:

radius: 10 cm

================

From the endpoints (EO, UO) of the circle to the center of the circle (O), the radius is will be always the same.

Using Pythagoras Theorem

(a)

TO² + TU² = OU²

(h-10)² + r² = 10² [insert values]

r² = 10² - (h-10)² [change sides]

r² = 100 - (h² -20h + 100) [expand]

r² = 100 - h² + 20h -100 [simplify]

r² = 20h - h² [shown]

r = √20h - h² ["r" in terms of "h"]

(b)

volume of cone = 1/3 * π * r² * h

===========================

$\longrightarrow \sf V = \dfrac{1}{3} * \pi * (\sqrt{20h - h^2})^2 \ ( h)$

$\longrightarrow \sf V = \dfrac{1}{3} * \pi * (20h - h^2) (h)$

$\longrightarrow \sf V = \dfrac{1}{3} * \pi * (20 - h) (h) ( h)$

$\longrightarrow \sf V = \dfrac{1}{3} \pi h^2(20-h)$

To find maximum/minimum, we have to find first derivative.

(c)

First derivative

$\Longrightarrow \sf V' =\dfrac{d}{dx} ( \dfrac{1}{3} \pi h^2(20-h) )$

apply chain rule

$\sf \Longrightarrow V'=\dfrac{\pi \left(40h-3h^2\right)}{3}$

Equate the first derivative to zero, that is V'(x) = 0

$\Longrightarrow \sf \dfrac{\pi \left(40h-3h^2\right)}{3}=0$

$\Longrightarrow \sf 40h-3h^2=0$

$\Longrightarrow \sf h(40-3h)=0$

$\Longrightarrow \sf h=0, \ 40-3h=0$

$\Longrightarrow \sf h=0,\:h=\dfrac{40}{3}$

maximum volume: when h = 40/3

$\sf \Longrightarrow max= \dfrac{1}{3} \pi (\dfrac{40}{3} )^2(20-\dfrac{40}{3} )$

$\sf \Longrightarrow maximum= 1241.123 \ cm^3$

minimum volume: when h = 0

$\sf \Longrightarrow min= \dfrac{1}{3} \pi (0)^2(20-0)$

$\sf \Longrightarrow minimum=0 \ cm^3$

Mr Lim, Mr Tan and Mr Chan have $8650 altogether. Mr Lim has $450 more than Mr Tan. Mr Chan has twice as much money as Mr Tan. H

Natalka [10]

Answer:

Mr. Lim will have $2500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The total amount of money which Mr. Lim, Mr. Tan and Mr. Chan is $8650;

Mr. Lim has $450 more than what Mr. Tan has;

Mr. Chan has double the amount of money than what Mr. Tan has.

Therefore, if we assume that the amount of money Mr. Tan has as x, then...

Total money = Mr. Tan + Mr. Lim + Mr. Chan

therefore,

8650 = x + (x + 450) + 2x

8650 = x + 2x + x + 450

8650 = 4x + 450

8650 - 450 = 4x

8200 = 4x

8200/4 = x

2050 = x

As we assumed earlier, x will be equal to the amount of money Mr. Tan has and the question is asking us how much money Mr. Lim has. To find this out, you have to add $450 to the amount of money Mr. Tan has which is $2050. This is because the question also gives us that Mr. Lim has $450 more that Mr. Tan.

I hope this helped you :)
