Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick is not to get all caught up in Pythagoras. There is a much simpler way to do it. Find the area of the triangle two different ways. DG and DE are at right angles. That is one way to find area. The other is use the height (DF) and multiply that by the hypotenuse GE.

DG*DE/2 = GE * DF/2            Multiply both sides by 2

DG*DE = GE * DF

DG = 8

DE = 15

GE = 17

8*15 = 17* DF

120 = 17 * DF                         Divide by 17

120/17 = DF

DF = 7.06

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

50.24

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>→To find a circle's (compass) area, you must use the following formula:</u>

A = πr^2

<u>→All you need to do is plug in 4 for the "r," (radius), and solve:</u>

A = π4^2

A = π(16)

<u>→When you multiply 16 by pi, we're going to use 3.14:</u>

A = 3.14(16)

A = 50.24

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

No solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us approach this question geometrically . Number of solutions is the number of meeting points of the two graphs . We can see that the given equations are equations of lines . First equation is 5x - y = 3.

Second equation when divided by two can be written as 5x - y = -1.

We can see that these lines are parallel and therefore doesn't intersect.So no solution.
