Cevap: 484 meters

Cevap

484 meters

The inner circumference is

440

meters. Using the formula

C = 2\pi r

, the inner radius is

70

meters (

440 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r

). Because the track has a uniform width of

7

meters, the outer radius is

70 + 7 = 77

meters. Using the circumference formula again for the outer edge,

C = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 77 = 484

meters.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the inner radius using the given circumference.

r_{inner} = 70

meters

Using the formula

C = 2\pi r

, substitute

440

for

C

and

\frac{22}{7}

for

\pi

:

440 = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times r

, which simplifies to

r = 70

.

2

Calculate the outer radius by adding the track's width.

r_{outer} = 77

meters

The outer edge is

7

meters further from the center than the inner edge, so you must add the width to the inner radius (

70 + 7 = 77

).

3

Calculate the outer circumference.

484

meters

Use the formula

C = 2\pi r

with the new outer radius:

C = 2 \times \frac{22}{7} \times 77 = 44 \times 11 = 484

.

7

meters wide on all sides, the total width added to the overall diameter is

14

meters (

7 \times 2

). The outer diameter is

140 + 14 = 154

meters. The outer circumference is

\frac{22}{7} \times 154 = 484

meters.

In a blueprint for a corner bracket, a laser cuts an exact $90^\circ$ right angle, splitting it into two adjacent sections. The measure of one section is determined by the expression $(2x + 18)^\circ$ , while the adjacent section is measured as $(3x - 8)^\circ$ . Based on this design, what is the degree measure of the larger section?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $50^\circ$

Cevap

The larger section measures

50^\circ

.

The problem states the laser cuts a 90-degree right angle into two sections, meaning the two expressions must add up to 90 degrees. Setting up the equation (2x + 18) + (3x - 8) = 90 simplifies to 5x + 10 = 90. Solving for x gives x = 16. Substituting x back into the expressions yields 50 degrees for the first section and 40 degrees for the second section. The larger of the two is 50 degrees.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up the algebraic equation based on the geometric relationship.

(2x + 18) + (3x - 8) = 90

The two adjacent sections form a right angle, meaning they are complementary and must sum to 90 degrees.

2

Combine like terms on the left side of the equation.

5x + 10 = 90

Combining the variable terms and constant terms simplifies the equation.

3

Isolate the variable x.

x = 16

Subtract 10 from both sides to get 5x = 80, then divide by 5.

4

Substitute the value of x back into both angle expressions.

First section =

2(16) + 18 = 50^\circ

; Second section =

3(16) - 8 = 40^\circ

The specific degree measures must be calculated to find the larger angle.

5

Compare the two angle measures.

50^\circ

The question asks specifically for the measure of the larger section.

A civil engineer is designing a railroad crossing where a straight diagonal track intersects two parallel roads. The two same-side interior angles between the parallel roads and the track are represented by the algebraic expressions $(4x - 20)^\circ$ and $(3x + 25)^\circ$ . Based on the geometric properties of parallel lines intersected by a transversal, match each description on the left with its correct calculated numerical value on the right.

Soldaki öğeye tıklayın, sonra eşleşen sağdaki öğeye tıklayın

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

The correct matches are: the value of x is 25, the acute angle is 80°, the obtuse angle is 100°, and the difference between them is 20°.

Same-side interior angles formed by parallel lines and a transversal are supplementary, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. Setting up the equation (4x - 20) + (3x + 25) = 180 allows us to solve for x, which equals 25. Substituting x = 25 back into the original expressions provides the individual angle measures: 80 degrees (acute) and 100 degrees (obtuse). Finally, subtracting the acute angle from the obtuse angle yields a difference of 20 degrees.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Set up an equation based on the geometric relationship of the angles.

(4x - 20) + (3x + 25) = 180

When a transversal intersects parallel lines, same-side interior angles are supplementary, meaning their sum is exactly 180 degrees.

2

Solve the algebraic equation to find the value of x.

7x + 5 = 180 \rightarrow 7x = 175 \rightarrow x = 25

Combining the like terms and isolating x provides the necessary variable value to determine the actual angle measures.

3

Substitute the value of x back into the original expressions.

4(25) - 20 = 80^\circ

and

3(25) + 25 = 100^\circ

This calculation determines the specific measures of the acute and obtuse angles formed at the intersection.

4

Calculate the difference between the obtuse and acute angle measures.

100^\circ - 80^\circ = 20^\circ

This satisfies the final required numerical value for the matching pairs.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $12$ inches

Cevap

The length of the altitude is

12

inches.

Drawing an altitude to the base of an isosceles triangle splits it into two identical right triangles. The base of

10

inches is bisected into two

5

-inch segments. For one of these right triangles, the base leg is

5

inches and the hypotenuse (the equal side) is

13

inches. Using the Pythagorean theorem (

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

), we set up the equation

h^2 + 5^2 = 13^2

. Solving for

h^2

gives

169 - 25 = 144

. Taking the square root of

144

yields an altitude of

12

inches.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the properties of an altitude in an isosceles triangle.

The altitude bisects the

10

This splits the isosceles triangle into two congruent right triangles, allowing the use of the Pythagorean theorem.

2

Set up the Pythagorean theorem (

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

) for one of the right triangles.

h^2 + 5^2 = 13^2

h

is the altitude,

5

is the base leg, and

13

A custom corner desk is shaped like a right triangle so it fits perfectly against two perpendicular walls. The sections of the desk that touch the walls measure $24\text{ inches}$ and $10\text{ inches}$ in length. What is the length of the front edge of the desk in inches?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 26

Cevap

26

Because the walls meet at a perpendicular right angle, the corner desk forms a right triangle. The edges touching the walls act as the legs (

a = 24

,

b = 10

), and the front edge is the hypotenuse (

c

). Using the Pythagorean Theorem (

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

), we square both legs to get

576

and

100

. Adding these together gives

676

. The square root of

676

is

26

, which is the exact length of the front edge in inches.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the known sides of the right triangle

Legs are

a = 24

and

b = 10

.

The walls are perpendicular, forming a

90^{\circ}

angle. Therefore, the edges touching the walls are the legs of a right triangle.

2

Set up the Pythagorean Theorem

24^2 + 10^2 = c^2

The Pythagorean Theorem (

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

) is the standard formula used to find the missing hypotenuse (

c

) when both legs are known.

3

Square the lengths of the legs

576 + 100 = c^2

Evaluating the exponents is the required next step in the order of operations.

4

Add the squared values

676 = c^2

Combining the squares of the legs gives the square of the hypotenuse.

C = 2\pi r

. Setting the given circumference

36\pi = 2\pi r

gives a radius of

18 \text{ feet}

. The area is found using

A = \pi r^2

, which becomes

A = \pi(18)^2 = 324\pi \text{ square feet}

. Since the question asks for the numerical coefficient of

\pi

To find the total surface area, all dimensions of the block must be known. The side length of the square base is

\sqrt{25} = 5

inches. The height is the volume divided by the base area:

150 \div 25 = 6

inches. The total surface area is the sum of the areas of all six faces: two square bases (

2 \times 25 = 50

) and four identical rectangular sides (

4 \times 5 \times 6 = 120

). The total is

50 + 120 = 170

square inches.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Find the side length of the square base.

5

inches

The area of a square is the side length squared (

s^2 = 25

), so the side length is the square root of the area.

2

Find the height of the rectangular block.

6

inches

The volume of a rectangular block is the base area multiplied by the height (

V = B \times h

). Dividing the volume (

150

) by the base area (

25

) gives the height.

3

Calculate the total surface area of the block.

square inches

The total surface area is the sum of the two square bases (

2 \times 25 = 50

) and the four identical rectangular sides (

A guy wire is securely attached to a vertical radio mast at a height of

60\text{ feet}

above the level ground. The other end of the wire is anchored to the ground exactly

25\text{ feet}

from the base of the mast. Assuming the mast is perfectly perpendicular to the ground, the length of the guy wire is feet.

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap

65

The mast, the ground, and the guy wire form a right triangle where the mast and the ground act as the two legs, and the guy wire is the hypotenuse. Using the Pythagorean theorem (

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

), we substitute the given leg lengths:

25^2 + 60^2 = c^2

. This simplifies to

625 + 3600 = 4225

. The square root of

4225

is

65

, meaning the guy wire is

65\text{ feet}

long. Additionally, recognizing that the side lengths (

25, 60, 65

) are a multiple of the common

5-12-13

Pythagorean triple (each multiplied by

5

) provides a quick way to solve the problem without large calculations.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Identify the shape formed by the scenario.

A right triangle is formed by the vertical mast, the level ground, and the diagonal guy wire.

The mast is perpendicular to the ground, creating a 90-degree angle.

2

Set up the Pythagorean theorem equation.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

, where

a = 25

and

b = 60

.

The legs of the right triangle are the distance along the ground (25 ft) and the height up the mast (60 ft). We need to find the hypotenuse,

c

.

3

Calculate the squares of the leg lengths.

25^2 = 625

and

60^2 = 3600

.

Squaring the values is required before adding them to find the square of the hypotenuse.

4

Add the squared values together.

625 + 3600 = 4225

.

This sum represents

c^2

, the square of the guy wire's length.

5

Find the square root of the sum to determine the final length.

\sqrt{4225} = 65

.

Taking the square root of

c^2

gives the actual length of the hypotenuse,

c

.
