A kite has 2 short sides and 2 long sides. The 2 short sides are equal. The 2 long sides are also equal. This means that the other short side is 16cm. And the remaining longer sides can be found like this:
let's pretend *y* is the long side
2*y = 70 - 16 - 16. (two of the long sides = 70 - short side - another short side)
so use algebra to find y.
2*y = 38
y = 19 so the long sides are both 19cm each
Your final answer: 16cm, 19cm, 19cm
Answer:
The answer is C. How many 3/4 -pound molds are in 1/3 pound of sand?
Answer:
25/16
Step-by-step explanation:
(4/5)^−2
=
(4/5)^−2
=
(5/4)^2
=
(5/4)*(5/4)
=
5*5/4*4
=
5^2/4^2
=
25/16

Answer:
it is twice as long(10/12 inches longer
Step-by-step explanation:
1 4/6 make the 6 a 12 and the four a 8. 1= 12/12 so 8+12=20 so 20/12 and 20 is 10/12 more that 10/12 or twice as much.
The area of a polygon is given by the formula Area = ap/2 where a is the length of the apothem and p is the perimeter. The apothem is a line from the center of the polygon perpendicular to a side.
Depending on the formula you know, you can find the length of a side in 1 of 2 ways.
The first way uses a triangle. Using the radius of the polygon you can create 8 congruent triangles. The center angle will be 360 / 8 = 45 and two side lengths of 20. You can find the length of the base using the law of cosines.
c^2 = 20^2 + 20^2 - 2(20)(20)(cos 45)
c^2 = 400 + 400 - 800(cos 45)
c^2 = 800 - 800(cos 45)
c = sqrt(800 - 800(cos 45)
c = 15.31
The second way is to use this formula:
r = s / (2 sin(180 / n))
20 = s / (2 sin(180/8)
(20)(2)sin(22.5) = s
(40)sin(22.5) = s
s = 15.31
We need to calculate the perimeter. As there are 8 sides (8)(15.31) = 122.48
Now we need to calculate the apothem using
a = S / (2 tan (180 / n)
a = 15.31 / (2 tan (180 / 8))
a = 18.48
Now solve for the area
Area = ap/2
Area = (18.48)(122.48)/2
Area = 1131.72
perimeter = 122.48
area = 1131.72
