Triangle PDQ has: 

     Side "p" is opposite Angle P 

     Side "d" is opposite Angle D = 45º + 23º = 68º 

     Side "q" is opposite Angle Q 


Use the Law of Cosines: 

         d²  =  p²  +  q²   −   2 • p • q • cos(D) 

         d²  =  (4.24)²  +  (4.24)²   −   2 • (4.24) • (4.24) • cos(68º) 

         d²  =  2(4.24)²   −   2(4.24)² • cos(68º) 

         d²  =  2(4.24)² • [ 1 – cos(68º) ] 

<span>         d  =  4.74 ft

Find the area of segment CFD given the following information: radius = 8in, area of ΔCBD = 25.9in2, and m∠CBD = 54° Round your a
Llana [10]

Answer:

A. 4.26 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the area of the sector DBC. Here we have to use the formula.

Area of a sector = Central Angle/360 *πr^{2}

The area of the sector DBC = (54/360)*3.14*8^{2}

= 30.16

Step 2: Area of segment CFD = Area of the sector DBC - Area of the ΔCBD

= 30.17 - 25.9

Area of segment CFD = 4.27in^2

Juan put three square tiles with sides 8 centimeters, 10 centimeters, and x centimeters together so that they form a right trian
Elan Coil [88]
Since the area of a square is equal to the square of one of its side's length, then the area should be equivalent to x^{2}.
A = x^{2} ---> equation (1)
By using pythagoras rule which states that the x^{2} = hyp^2 - opposite^2---> equation (2)
where the opposite side's length is 8 and the hypotenuse side's length is 10
by substituting by the values in equation (2) therefore,
x^{2} = 10^{2} - 8^{2} substitute this value in equation (1) then
A = x^{2} = 10^{2} -8^{2}
where A is the area of the square whose side is x

Colton has a stone paperweight composed of a triangular pyramid on top of a triangular prism with the dimensions shown below. Us
Eva8 [605]

The area of the base would be found using the area of a triangle formula which is 1/2 x base x height.

The base and height are the two sides perpendicular to each other, which are both 5 inches.

The area of the base = 1/2 x 5 x 5 = 12.5 square inches.

The volume of the triangular prism is the area of the base times the height, which is 4 inches.

Volume of the triangular prism is 12.5 x 4 = 50 cubic inches.

Volume of the triangular prism is 1/3 x area of base x height, which is 7:

Volume of the triangular prism = 1/3 x 12.5 x 7 = 29.17 cubic inches.

Total volume = 29.17 + 50 = 79.17 cubic inches.
