dusya [7]3 years ago

Answer:

XY = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 3 to 2 meaning that the sides of the triangle ABC and triangle AYY are in a ratio of 3 to 2.   You are comparing the big triangle to the small triangle and the sides are compared the same way.

3:2 = 24:XY                  

 3/2 = 24/XY

 3 XY = 48

 XY = 48/3

  XY = 16

bearing in mind that 1 yard = 0.914 meters, so therefore 27 meters is then 27/0.914 yards and 18 meters is 18/0.914 yards

\bf \stackrel{27~meters}{\cfrac{27}{0.914}yd}\cdot \stackrel{18~meters}{\cfrac{18}{0.914}yd}\qquad \approx\qquad 581.76~yd^2 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{total price}}{(581.76)(12)}\implies 6981.12

In circle V, r = 14ft.
Bad White [126]

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a circle is given by:

A = \pi * r ^ 2

Where:

r: It is the radius of the circle

According to the data of the statement we have that the circle has a radius of 14 \ ft

Substituting in the formula we have:

A = \pi * (14) ^ 2\\A = \pi * 196\\A = 196 \pi

So, the area of the circle is 196 \pi feet squared

Option D

What is the length of segment BC?
vodomira [7]

The length is 10 because this is a right triangle and based on the pythagorean theorem, the sum of the squares of the legs equals the square of the longest side.

6 squared plus 8 squared is 100, which is 10 squared.

The answer is 10.
