Answer:

1 foot or 12 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there are 12 incher in every foot, we divide 84 by 12, giving us a total of 7ft. He has to jump 1 foot, or 12 inches more, to beat the record.

Answer:

12 inches or 1 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, convert the 6 feet to inches.

(There are 12 inches in 1 foot)

So, 6 feet is 72 inches (6 * 12)

Now, you can subtract this total from the record, to find how much farther he needs to jump:

84 - 72 = How much further

84 - 72 = 12

Therefore, he needs to jump 12 inches further.

To place in feet form, then convert 12 inches to feet.

(There are 12 inches in a foot)

So, 12 inches is 1 foot

The coordinates of rhombus ABCD are A(–4, –2), B(–2, 6), C(6, 8), and D(4, 0). What is the area of the rhombus? Round to the nea
a_sh-v [17]
Check the picture below.

so the rhombus has the diagonals of AC and BD, now keeping in mind that the diagonals bisect each, namely they cut each other in two equal halves, let's find the length of each.

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
A(\stackrel{x_1}{-4}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-2})\qquad 
C(\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{8})\qquad \qquad 
%  distance value
d = \sqrt{( x_2- x_1)^2 + ( y_2- y_1)^2}
\\\\\\
AC=\sqrt{[6-(-4)]^2+[8-(-2)]^2}\implies AC=\sqrt{(6+4)^2+(8+2)^2}
\\\\\\
AC=\sqrt{10^2+10^2}\implies AC=\sqrt{10^2(2)}\implies \boxed{AC=10\sqrt{2}}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf ~~~~~~~~~~~~\textit{distance between 2 points}
\\\\
B(\stackrel{x_1}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{6})\qquad 
D(\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{0})\qquad \qquad BD=\sqrt{[4-(-2)]^2+[0-6]^2}
\\\\\\
BD=\sqrt{(4+2)^2+(-6)^2}\implies BD=\sqrt{6^2+6^2}
\\\\\\
BD=\sqrt{6^2(2)}\implies \boxed{BD=6\sqrt{2}}

that simply means that each triangle has a side that is half of 10√2 and another side that's half of 6√2.

namely, each triangle has a "base" of 3√2, and a "height" of 5√2, keeping in mind that all triangles are congruent, then their area is,

\bf \stackrel{\textit{area of the four congruent triangles}}{4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(3\sqrt{2})(5\sqrt{2}) \right]\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot (\sqrt{2})^2) \right]}\implies 4\left[ \cfrac{1}{2}(15\cdot 2) \right]
\\\\\\
4[15]\implies 60

For the figures below, assume they are made of semicircles, quarter circles and squares. For each shape, find the area and perim
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Part a) The area of the figure is \frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}

Part b) The perimeter of the figure is 3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the area of the figure

In this problem we have that

The figure ABC is the half of a square and the other figure is a semicircle

<u>Find the area of the figure ABC</u>

we have

AB=6\ cm, BC=6\ cm

The area of the half square ABC is equal to find the area of triangle ABC

so

A1=\frac{1}{2}*6*6=18\ cm^{2}

<u>Find the area of the semicircle</u>

The area of the semicircle is equal to

A2=\pi r^{2}/2

we have that

r=6/2=3\ cm

substitute

A2=\pi (3)^{2}/2

A2=(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}

The area of the figure is equal to

18\ cm^{2}+(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}= \frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}

Step 2

Find the perimeter of the figure

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

P=AB+AC+length\ CB

we have

AB=6\ cm

Applying Pythagoras theorem

AC=\sqrt{6^{2}+6^{2}}\\AC=6\sqrt{2}\ cm

Remember that

the circumference of a semicircle is equal to

C=\frac{1}{2}2\pi r=\pi r

r=6/2=3\ cm

C=\pi(3)

C=3 \pi\ cm

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

P=6\ cm+6\sqrt{2}\ cm+3 \pi\ cm

Simplify

P=3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm
