Answer:

  1. 45 cm²
  2. 38 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The conventional way to work these problems is to make use of the formulas for areas of a triangle, rectangle, and semicircle. If you've used these formulas for a while, you recognize that they give you certain relationships that may make these problems easy to do mentally.

__

1. The area of a triangle is half the product of height and width, so is equivalent to the area of a rectangle either half as high, or half as wide. We note that the width of the sail is 5 cm, so half that is 2.5 cm--exactly the same as the height of the boat's hull. That means we can add the height of the sail to the length of the boat, and the total area can be considered to be the same as that of a rectangle that is

  2.5 cm high × (12 cm + 6 cm) long = (2.5)(18) cm² = 45 cm²

__

2. The usual formula for the area of a circle is ...

  A = πr²

When expressed in terms of diameter, this becomes ...

  A = π(d/2)² = (π/4)d²

Then the area of a semicircle is half that, or (π/8)d². This is equivalent to the area of a rectangle that is "d" wide and "π/8·d" high. That is, the approximate area of the semicircle is that of a rectangle 4 cm high by (π/8·4 cm) = π/2 cm wide. In other words, the semicircle effectively adds π/2 cm to the left end of the 6 cm central rectangle of the figure.

As discussed above, the area of a triangle is equivalent to the area of a rectangle half as high. In this figure, the triangle is 10-6 = 4 cm wide, so can be considered to contribute 4/2 = 2 cm to the right end of the 6 cm central rectangle.

If we consider π ≈ 3, then the approximate area of the figure is ...

  (4 cm)(3/2 cm + 6 cm + 2 cm) = (4)(9.5) cm² = 38 cm²

__

The exact value is 4(8+π/2) = 32+2π ≈ 38.283 cm².

Answer:

y = 20/3

Step-by-step explanation:

4y + 2y + 10 = 50

Combine like terms on the left side.

6y + 10 = 50

Subtract 10 from both sides.

6y = 40

Divide both sides by 6.

y = 40/6

Reduce the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2.

y = 20/3

The ratio (by volume) of salt and sugar in a certain mixture is 4 to 8. If the total volume of the solution is 300 cubic feet, w
Tatiana [17]
You will use the ratio 4:8 to create a part to part to whole ratio.

First simplify 4:8 to 1:2, then make it 1:2:3 (Salt:Sugar:Total).

Use this to find the volume of sugar.  2 sugars for every 3 total would be equivalent to 200 cubic feet of sugar for every 300 total cubic feet.

8. A triangle has sides with lengths of 6, 8, and 10 units, and a square has a
svet-max [94.6K]

Difference between the area of the triangle and square is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the area of the triangle given its 3 sides using the Heron's formula.

Area of the triangle = \sqrt{s (s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} where s = \frac{a + b + c}{2}

⇒ s = (6 + 8 + 10)/2 = 24/2 = 12

\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} = \sqrt{12(12-6)(12-8)(12-10)}

                                    = \sqrt{12(6)(4)(2)} = \sqrt{576} = 24 sq. units

  • Step 2: Find the area of the square with perimeter = 28 units.

Perimeter of the square = 4 × side = 28

⇒ Side of the square = 28/4 = 7 units

⇒ Area of the square = (side)² = 7² = 49 sq. units

  • Step 3: Find the difference between the area of the square and triangle.

Difference = 49 - 24 = 25
