Answer:

the percent error is 6.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the percent error is shown below:

Percent error is

= (Experimental value - accepted value) ÷ (experimental value) × 100

= (80 degrees - 75 degrees) ÷ (80 degrees) × 100

= (5 degrees) ÷ (80 degrees) × 100

= 0.0625 × 100

= 6.25%

hence, the percent error is 6.25%

We simply applied the above formula so that the correct value could come

And, the same is to be considered

Answer: 116.93ft^2




Explanation: find the area of the circle
A= pi•r^2
A=(3.14)•1.5^2= 7.07

Then find the area of the rectangle
A=L•W
A=15.5•8=124

Then do 124-7.07=116.93

You have to subtract the area of the circle from the area of the rectangle because the circle is not shaded in

I don't know to find the answer to 8. Can someone explain to me?

Perhaps the easiest way to find the midpoint between two given points is to average their coordinates: add them up and divide by 2.

A) The midpoint C' of AB is
.. (A +B)/2 = ((0, 0) +(m, n))/2 = ((0 +m)/2, (0 +n)/2) = (m/2, n/2) = C'
The midpoint B' is
.. (A +C)/2 = ((0, 0) +(p, 0))/2 = (p/2, 0) = B'
The midpoint A' is
.. (B +C)/2 = ((m, n) +(p, 0))/2 = ((m+p)/2, n/2) = A'

B) The slope of the line between (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) is given by
.. slope = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
Using the values for A and A', we have
.. slope = (n/2 -0)/((m+p)/2 -0) = n/(m+p)

C) We know the line goes through A = (0, 0), so we can write the point-slope form of the equation for AA' as
.. y -0 = (n/(m+p))*(x -0)
.. y = n*x/(m+p)

D) To show the point lies on the line, we can substitute its coordinates for x and y and see if we get something that looks true.
.. (x, y) = ((m+p)/3, n/3)
Putting these into our equation, we have
.. n/3 = n*((m+p)/3)/(m+p)
The expression on the right has factors of (m+p) that cancel*, so we end up with
.. n/3 = n/3 . . . . . . . true for any n

_____
* The only constraint is that (m+p) ≠ 0. Since m and p are both in the first quadrant, their sum must be non-zero and this constraint is satisfied.

The purpose of the exercise is to show that all three medians of a triangle intersect in a single point.

Line E'F' has endpoints located at E'(1,0) and F'(1,3). Line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the orgin. Which statement de
Lerok [7]

Answer:

If line EF was dilated by a scale of 1/2 from the origin to get line E'F', then if line E'F' is dilated by a scale of 2 from the origin, EF is obtained. Also, the length of EF is double than the length of E'F'.

Dilation by a scale of 2 from the origin transforms point (x,y) into (2*x, 2*y)

E'(1,0) -> E(2,0)

F'(1, 3) ->F(2, 6)

length of E'F': 3

length of EF: 6
