The altitude of the triangle is because it is a - - right triangle.
??? 2 cm??? 1 cm The area of the hexagon is therefore. Because regular hexagons are similar, their areas will be proportional to the square of their similarity ratio.. cm 2. 49. ANS: [4] 30 ft a x The radius of the square from its center to a corner is 30 feet. A triangle can be formed where x is half the side length and a is the apothem. The triangle in the diagram is a 45-45 -90 triangle. The hypotenuse 30 is x and a and a = x. To find the value of x, or a, write and solve an equation. 30 = x Write an equation. = Divide each side by. 21.2 x Use a calculator. So, x = a 21.2 and the perimeter is about 2(21.2)(4) feet, or 169.6 feet. Now, use the formula for the area of a regular polygon. A =
= Substitute. = 1797.76 Simplify. The area of the deck is about 1798 square feet. Another way to find the area is to use the formula for the area of a square. The length of the side of the deck is 2(21.2), or 42.4. The area of the deck is about 1798 square feet. 50. ANS: [4] In a 45-45 -90 triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is the length of the short leg times, so the length of the hypotenuse is 7 in. The exact value of sin 45 is = =. Area of a triangle = = b = 7, c = 7, A = 45 = Simplify. = 24.5 The area of the triangle is 24.5 in.. Another formula for the area of a triangle if the base length and height are known is. For this triangle, b = 7 and h = 7 since they are the legs of a right triangle. A = = b = 7, h = 7 = Simplify. = 24.5 The area of the triangle is 24.5 in.. 51. ANS
[4] Answers may vary. Sample: If a basketball has a circumference of 30, then its diameter is. If the ball goes in exactly in the center of the rim, then there is a total of (18 9.549) inches or 8.551 inches on both sides of the ball. Therefore, there is half of this distance, or about 4.2 inches, between the ball and the rim. [3] correct methods used, but with a computational error [2] error in method [1] correct answer with no work shown 52. ANS: [4] Answers may vary. Sample: The total length of wrought iron used is the sum of the outer circumference plus the inner circumference plus the eleven segments. The length of wrought iron used is approximately 59 meters.
