Find the exact area of the shaded region

B: 192pi - 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the sector = (120/360) * pi * r^2

Area of the sector = 1/3 * pi * 24 * 24

Area of the sector = 192 * pi

Now to find the area of the triangle.

The triangle is an isosceles triangle That means two of its sides are equal. They are equal to the radius of the circle, which is 24.

the small angles are equal to

2x + 120 = 180    Subtract 120 from both sides

2x = 60               Divide by 2

x = 60/2

x = 30

The height of the triangle is derived from sin(30) = opposite / hypotenuse

sin(30) = 1/2

hypotenuse = 24

1/2 = opposite / hypotenuse

1/2 = opposite / 24                      Multiply both sides by 24

1/2 * 24 = opposite

opposite = 12

The height = 12

r = 24

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 12 * 24

Area of the triangle = 144

So the area of the shaded area = 192*pi - 144 which looks like B

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
