Randy can run n meters every 2 seconds. If the circular track has a radius of 75 meters, how many minutes does it take Randy to run twice around the track?

10 minutes: The distance around the track is the circumference of the circle: C = 2nr = 150piT Running twice around the circle would equal a distance of 300piT meters. If Randy can run n meters every 2 seconds, he runs 30piT meters every minute. Therefore, it will take him 10 minutes to run around the circular track twice

What is the area of an equilateral triangle whose sides measure 8 cm long?

16 square root 3 : Draw in the height of the triangle (see figure). If triangle ABC is an equilateral triangle, and ABD is a right triangle, then ABD is a 3 0 -6 0 - 90 triangle. Therefore, its sides are in the ratio of 1: -\/3 : 2. If the hypotenuse is 8, the short leg is 4, and the long leg is 4 V3 . This is the height of triangle ABC. Find the area of triangle ABC with the formula for area of a triangle: or use area of an equilateral triangle formula

ABCD is a square picture frame (see figure). EFGH is a square inscribed within ABCD as a space for a picture. The area of EFGH (for the picture) is equal to the area of the picture frame (the area of ABCD minus the area of EFGH). If AB = 6, what is the length of EF1

3V2 : The area of the frame and the area of the picture sum to the total area of the image, which is 62, or 36. Therefore, the area of the frame and the picture are each equal to half of 36, or 18. Since EFGHis a square, the length of EFis yfl8 , or 3V2 .

Two sides of a triangle are 4 and 10. If the third side is an integer x, how many possible values are there forx?

7: If two sides of a triangle are 4 and 10, the third side must be greater than 10-4 and smaller than 10 + 4. Therefore, the possible values for x are {7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 13}. You can draw a sketch to convince yourself of this result:

In Triangle ABC, AD = DB = DC (see figure). Given that angle DCB is 60° and angle ACD is 20°, what is the measure of angle x?

If AD = DB = DC, then the three triangular regions in this figure are all isosceles triangles. Therefore, you can fill in some of the missing angle measurements as shown to the right. Since you know that there are 180° in the large triangle ABC, you can write the following equation: x + x

40 percent of Andrea's living room floor is covered by a carpet that is 4 feet by 9 feet. What is the area of her living room floor?

The area of the carpet is equal to lx w, or 36 ft2. Set up a proportion to find the area of the whole living room floor: — = — Cross-multiply to solve. 100 x 40* = 3,600 * = 90 ft2

Given that the short leg of a 30-60-9 0 triangle has a length of 6, what are the lengths of the long leg and the hypotenuse?

The short leg, which is opposite the 30 degree angle, is 6. Use the ratio 1: y/3 :2 to determine that the multiplier x is 6. You then find that the sides of the triangle have lengths 6 :6 V3 :12. The long leg measures 6 y/3 and the hypotenuse measures 12.

A rectangular solid has a square base, with each side of the base measuring 4 meters. If the volume of the solid is 112 cubic meters, what is the surface area of the solid?

The volume of a rectangular solid equals (length) x (width) x (height). If you know that the length and width are both 4 meters long, you can substitute values into the formulas as shown: 112 = 4 x 4 x h h = 7 To find the surface area of a rectangular solid, sum the individual areas of all six faces: Area of one face Total area of two identical faces Top and Bottom: Sides: 4 x 4 = 1 6 4 x 7 = 28 -► 2 x 16 = 32 -► 4 x 2 8 = 112 All 6 faces 32 + 112 = 144 m2

A swimming pool has a length of 30 meters, a width of 10 meters, and an average depth of 2 meters. If a hose can fill the pool at a rate of 0.5 cubic meters per minute, how many hours will it take the hose to fill the pool?

The volume of the pool is (length) x (width) x (height), or 30 x 10 x 2 = 600 cubic meters. Use a standard work equation, R T = W, where W represents the total work of 600 m3: 0.5*= 600 t= 1,200 minutes Convert this time to hours by dividing by 60: 1,200 -5- 60 = 20 hours. Alternately, we could convert first: 0.5 m3/min x 60 min/hr = 30 m3/hr. Next, use the standard work equation: 30*= 600 t = 20 hours.

A rectangular tank needs to be coated with insulation. The tank has dimensions of 4 feet, 5 feet, and 2.5 feet. Each square foot of insulation costs $20. How much will it cost to cover the surface of the tank with insulation?

To find the surface area of a rectangular solid, sum the individual areas of all six faces: Area of one Total area of two face identical faces Top and Bottom: 5 x 4 = 20 —► 20 x 2 = 40 Side 1: 5 x 2.5 = 12.5 -► 12.5 x 2 = 25 Side 2: 4 x 2 .5 = 10 -► 1 0 x 2 = 20 All 6 faces -► 40 + 25 + 20 = 85 ft2 Covering the entire tank will cost 85 x $20 = $1,700.

Frank the Fencemaker needs to fence in a rectangular yard. He fences in the entire yard, except for one full side of the yard, which equals 40 feet. The yard has an area of 280 square feet. How many feet offence does Frank use?

You know that one side of the yard is 40 feet long; call this the length. You also know that the area of the yard is 280 square feet. In order to determine the perimeter, you must know the width of the yard. A — Ix w 280 = 40w w — 280 -5- 40 = 7 feet Frank fences in the two 7-foot sides and one of the 40-foot sides. 40 + 2(7) = 54
