Answer:

FD = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{FD}{BA} = \frac{FE}{BC} , substitute values

\frac{x+3}{2x+2} = \frac{16}{24} = \frac{2}{3} ( cross- multiply )

2(2x + 2) = 3(x + 3) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

4x + 4 = 3x + 9 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

x + 4 = 9 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

x = 5

Thus

FD = x + 3 = 5 + 3 = 8

If the circumference of a circle measures 25.12cm, what is the area of the circle in terms of pi?
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumfrance is 2*(pi)*R and the formula for area is (pi)* R^2 or (pi) R-squared.

Circumfrance is 25.12 so....

25.12 = 2 * (pi) R........ you want to find R because you need it to find the area

R is about 4; it is 3.99797 .

You use the R that you goot from cirdumfrance to find area.

Area = (pi) (4)^2 = 50. 265

or is you prefer a more precise answer, Area = 50.2145
