Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A point at which three altitudes of a triangle meet is known as orthocenter.

Whereas when a circle is inscribed in a triangle and it touches all the sides of a triangle then the center of circle is known as incenter.

When all the three medians of a triangle intersect each other then the point is known as centroid.

Circumcenter is a point where perpendicular bisectors on each side of a triangle bisect and this point is equidistant from all the vertices.

The formula for the area of a circle is A = r 2. Classify the area of a circle with a radius of 0.75 centimeters as either ratio

OlgaM077 [116]

First:The area of a circle is πr squared. Not r2
Second. The area of the circle HAS to be irrational because π is an irrational number. The answer would be, if solved for a circle with the radius of 0.75, the area would be 0.5625π, which is irrational.

Calculate the side lengths a and b to two decimal places.

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

$a=10.92 units$

$b=14.51 units$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that c=6 units

$\angle A=43^{\circ}$

$\angle B=115^{\circ}$

We have to find the side length a and b.

We know that sum of angles of a triangle =180 degrees

$\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180$

Substitute the values then we get

$43+115+\angle C=180$

$158+\angle C=180$

$\angle C=180-158=22^{\circ}$

sine law: $\frac{a}{sin A}=\frac{b}{sin B}=\frac{c}{sin C}$

$\frac{a}{sin 43^{\circ}}=\frac{6}{sin 22^{\circ}}$

$a=\frac{6}{sin 22^{\circ}}\times sin 43^{\circ}$

$a=10.92 units$

$\frac{b}{sin 115^{\circ}}=\frac{6}{sin 22^{\circ}}$

$b=\frac{6}{sin 22^{\circ}}\times sin 115^{\circ}=14.51$

$b=14.51 units$

wlad13 [49]

(a) Kim x years old
Jordan x+7 years old
4(x+7)=200
An Equation That Could Be Used To Solve For Kim's Age , x Is 4x+28=200.
(b) 4x=200-28
4x=172
x=43
Kim Is 43 Years Old.
(c) x+7
=43+7
=50
