Answer:

3/8 is is bigger then 3/12

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is that 3/12 is equivalent to 2/8 and 3/8 is equivalent to 6/16

Sorry if its wrong! ^^""

Find the area of the composite figure.

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The Area of the composite figure would be 76.26 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Figure Given:

Total Horizontal Distance = 14 in

Length = 6 in

To Find :

The Area of the composite figure

Solution:

Firstly we need to find the area of Rectangular part.

So We know that,

$\boxed{ \rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = Length×Breadth}$

Here, Length is 6 in but the breadth is unknown.

To Find out the breadth, we’ll use this formula:

$\boxed{\rm \: Breadth = total \: distance - Radius}$

According to the Figure, we can see one side of a rectangle and radius of the circle are common, hence,

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Length \: of \: the \: circle = Radius$

Since Length = 6 in ;

$\longrightarrow \rm \: 6 \: in = radius$

Hence Radius is 6 in.

So Substitute the value of Total distance and Radius:

Total Horizontal Distance= 14
Radius = 6

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Breadth = 14-6$

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Breadth = 8 \: in$

Hence, the Breadth is 8 in.

Then, Substitute the values of Length and Breadth in the formula of Rectangle :

Length = 6
Breadth = 8

$\longrightarrow\rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = 6 \times 8$

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area \: of \: Rectangle = 48 \: in {}^{2}$

Then, We need to find the area of Quarter circle :

We know that,

$\boxed{\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{\pi{r} {}^{2} }{4}}$

Now Substitute their values:

r = radius = 6
π = 3.14

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times 6 {}^{2} }{4}$

Solve it.

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times 36}{4}$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = \cfrac{3.14 \times \cancel{{36} } \: ^{9} }{ \cancel4}$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle)} =3.14 \times 9$

$\longrightarrow\rm Area_{(Quarter \; Circle) } = 28.26 \: {in}^{2}$

Now we can Find out the total Area of composite figure:

We know that,

$\boxed{ \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =Area_{(rectangle)}+ Area_{ (Quarter Circle)}}$

So Substitute their values:

$\rm Area_{(rectangle)}$ = 48
$\rm Area_{(Quarter Circle)}$ = 28.26

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =48 + 28 .26$

Solve it.

$\longrightarrow \rm \: Area_{(Composite Figure)} =\boxed{\tt 76.26 \:\rm in {}^{2}}$

Hence, the area of the composite figure would be 76.26 in² or 76.26 sq. in.

$\rule{225pt}{2pt}$

I hope this helps!

154 yd ²

the formula is (b • h) / 2 = A

so plug it in (14 • 22) / 2 = 154

If sin theta =1/4, theta in quadrant II, find the exact value of cos[theta +pi/6]

Mashcka [7]

Using cos addition formula:
use x for theta
cos(x+π/6)=cosx*cos(π/6)-sinx*sin(π/6)
sinx=1/4
cosx=√15/4
cos(π/6)=√3/2
sin(π/6)=1/2
cos(x+π/6)=(√15/4*√3/2)-(1/4*1/2)
cos(x+π/6)=(√45/8)-(1/8 )
cos(x+π/6)=(√45-1)/8)
