6. Calculate the area of the octagon in the figure below.

Kryger [21]

Answer:

$41\text{ [units squared]}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The octagon is irregular, meaning not all sides have equal length. However, we can break it up into other shapes to find the area.

The octagon shown in the figure is a composite figure as it's composed of other shapes. In the octagon, let's break it up into:

4 triangles (corners)
3 rectangles (one in the middle, two on top after you remove triangles)

Formulas:

Area of rectangle with length $l$ and width $w$ : $A=lw$
Area of triangle with base $b$ and height $h$ : $A=\frac{1}{2}bh$

Area of triangles:

All four triangles we broke the octagon into are congruent. Each has a base of 2 and a height of 2.

Thus, the total area of one is $A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 2\cdot 2=2\text{ square units}$

The area of all four is then $2\cdot 4=8$ units squared.

Area of rectangles:

The two smaller rectangles are also congruent. Each has a length of 3 and a width of 2. Therefore, each of them have an area of $3\cdot 2=6$ units squared, and the both of them have a total area of $6\cdot 2=12$ units squared.

The last rectangle has a width of 7 and a height of 3 for a total area of $7\cdot 3=21$ units squared.

Therefore, the area of the entire octagon is $8+12+21=\boxed{41\text{ [units squared]}}$

When a survey was conducted among 100 students to find their favorite pizza topping, 45 students voted for pepperoni, 25 for mus

Answer:

The central angle for the cheese sector would be 108 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a pi chart takes the form of a circle so the total angle measure is 360 degrees.

Now we want to find out what ratio of the pie chart that cheese takes up and apply it to the total degree measure.

30 of 100 students voted for cheese:

so the ratio would be 30/100 or 3/10

Now apply that to the total angle measure:

3/10*360 degrees= 108 degrees.

Can someone give an explaination please

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

x ≥ -3

x ≤ 3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first inequality, just add 3 to both sides.

For the second inequality, add 4 to both sides then divide both sides by 3.
