Answer:

radius = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The point of "show your work" is to have to do exactly that. If you know the answer to the problem, you are being requested to show how you got it. If you got it by using a web calculator, then show your input and its result.

If you worked the problem yourself, you probably did it by filling in numbers in the equation for the area of a circle:

A = πr²

78.5 = 3.14×r²

Dividing both sides by 3.14 gives the square of the radius:

78.4/3.14 = r² = 25

Taking the positive square root gives the radius:

r = √25 = 5

The area is in square centimeters, so the radius is in centimeters:

radius = 5 cm

Jess wants to measure how much water she uses in the shower each morning. She finds

forsale [732]

Answer:

32 gallons of water

Step-by-step explanation:

8 minutes = 480 seconds.

set up a proportion:

1/15=x/480

we have to solve for x:

15x=480

x=32.

Jess uses 32 gallons of water.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the sine ratio in the left, right triangle to find the common side to both triangles and the exact values

sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ , cos45° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ , thus

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{opp}{7\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2 × opp = 21 ( divide both sides by 2 )

opp = $\frac{21}{2}$

Now consider the right triangle on the right, using the cosine ratio

cos45° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{\frac{21}{2} }{x}$ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }$ ( cross- multiply )

x = $\frac{21}{2}$ × $\sqrt{2}$ = $\frac{21\sqrt{2} }{2}$ → C

WXYZ is congruent to PQRS. Find each measure of angle P

REY [17]

P=45

How do I Know that?

I added 35+100 and that equal to 180, so Then I subtracted 180-135 and that gave me 45. So P=35. Add all of them up to see if it = 180 and if it does, then your answer is correct. remeber 3 angles of a triangle =180.
