Answer:

  • Explained briefly below.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>For old circular garden:</u>

take the radius as r.

then use the formula to find area of circle: πr² ......this is old garden area.

<u>For new enlarged garden:</u>

the radius is twice the old radius so, radius = 2 * r = 2r ......enlarged radius

now find area for this new garden:  π(2r)² → 4πr²

In common fractions: (old garden)/(new garden)

                                : ( πr² ) / ( 4πr² )

                                 :    1/4

Answer:

  • 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Original diameter is d and new diameter is D and:</u>

  • D = 2d

<u>Area of original circle:</u>

  • A₁ = πd²/4

<u>Area of enlarged circle:</u>

  • A₂ = πD²/4 = π(2d)²/4 = πd²

<u>The ratio of areas:</u>

  • A₁ / A₂ =
  • πd²/4 ÷ πd² =
  • 1/4 ÷ 1 =
  • 1/4

Find the length of base PQ in the trapezoid.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

PQ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem:  The length of the median of a trapezoid is the average of the base lengths.

\frac{PQ + 12}{2}  = 16

PQ + 12 = 32

PQ = 20

See how easy that is if you know the theorem!
