Answer:

A = 240 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

the area (A) of a regular polygon is

A = \frac{1}{2} pa ( p is the perimeter and a the apothem )

here p = 8 × 6 = 48 ( an octagon has 8 sides ) and a = 10 , then

A = \frac{1}{2} × 48 × 10 = 24 × 10 = 240 units²

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Preliminary task

Draw a regular octagon.

Draw a perpendicular from the side's midpoint to the center. (That is the  apothem).

Draw two radii from the center of the side to the center of of the octagon. The endpoints of these two radii is the endpoints of the octagon's side.

The octagon has 8 such triangles.

Area one triangle

Area = 1/2 * side *  apothem

side = 6

apothem = 10

Area = 1/2 6 * 10

Area = 30

Area of 8 such triangles.

Area = 8 * area of 1 triangle

area 1 triangle = 30

Area of 8 such triangles = 30*8 = 240

Answer 240

Answer:

87.92 inches cubed or 87.92 in.^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The base of a cylinder is a circle, so we need to calculate the area of the circle first. The equation for the area of a circle is:

area (a) = pi * r^2 =3.14*2*2 =12.56sq.inches

again,

volume of cylinder = area of the base * the height

= 12.56 * 7

= 87.92 inches cubed or 87.92 in.^3

When writing twenty-one-and-a-half-trillion in scientific notation, what is the exponent needed on the base ten?
Nat2105 [25]
1 trillion is 10^9.

Thus, 21 1/2 trillion is    21 1/2 times 10^9, or 2.15 times 10^10

Hope this helps.  If not, ask for clarification.

Let A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {2, 4}. What is A ∩ B?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

A ∩ B = {2, 4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition: The intersection A ∩ B of two sets A and B is the set that contains all elements of A that also belong to B.

For example:

If x∈A and x∈B

then;

x∈ A ∩ B

Given the sets:

A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {2, 4}

We have to find  A ∩ B.

By definition we have;

A ∩ B = {2, 4}

Therefore, the value of  A ∩ B is, {2, 4}

A line passes through the points ( − 16 , 14 ) and ( 8 , 35 ) . Calculate the slope of the line - simplify answer if possible. (
REY [17]

Given two points (x_1,y_1),\ (x_2,y_2), the slope of the line connecting them is defined as

m=\dfrac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

In your case, the points are

(x_1,y_1)=(-16,14),\ (x_2,y_2)=(8,35)

Plugging these values in the slope formula gives

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{35-14}{8-(-16)}=\dfrac{21}{24}=\dfrac{7}{8}
