Mrs. Thomas has two rolls of garden edging that are each 96 inches long. She wants to make two new flower beds in her back yard. Each flower bed

will be bordered by one roll of the edging. One flower bed will be in the

shape of a quadrilateral. The other will be in the shape of a triangle.

Please answer all parts. I will give brainliest for correct answer!

A) The total length of each edging in her scale drawing would be 19.2 centimeters.

B) Square or rectangle

C) angle  α= 53.13 degrees

angle β=  36.87 degrees

height=  32 inches

base= 24 inches

hypotenuse 40 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

If the roll edging is 96 inches long and the scale chosen is

5inches = 1 cm

96inches /5= 19.2cm

The total length of each edging in her scale drawing would be 19.2 centimeters.

Part B:

The quadrilaterals such rectangle square right  trapezoid have a pair of 90 degrees angles.

If we choose a square shape then all sides must be equal. And we have a length of 19.2 centimeters.

Dividing 19.2 by 4  gives 4.8 cm for each side.

Figure A  shows a square and has 4 sides equal and 4 right angles.

If we choose a rectangle shape then 2 sides must be equal. We have a length of 19.2 centimeters.

Suppose the length is 2 times more than the width

which will give the dimensions as

2*2 x+ 2x= 6x   ( length and width denoted by x)

Dividing 19.2 by 6  gives 3.2 cm for each width and  6.4 for the lengths.

Figure B shows a rectangle  and has 2 sides equal and 4 right angles.

It depends on which quadrilateral you wish to choose.

Part C:

Using Pythagorus theorem if the base and altitude are given then the hypotenuse can be found out using the following formula.

c²= a² +b²

c²= 6.4² +4.8²

c²= 40.96+23.04= 64

c= √64 = 8

The third side must be equal to 8 centimeters.

Using the formula

Cos α= base / hypotenuse

Cos α=4.8/8

α= Cos (inverse) 4.8/8

α= Cos (inverse) 0.6

α= 53.13 degrees

So angle α= 53.13 degrees

All the angles in the triangle must be 180 degrees.

α + β +  90°= 180°

And angle β= 180-90-53.13= 36.869= 36.87 degrees

The actual dimensions of this triangle are

height= a= 6.4* 5= 32 inches

base= b= 4.8*5= 24 inches

hypotenuse= 8*5= 40 inches.

The answer to the question is d

Answer: d. 39 cmin the diagram, the approximate length of the minor arc de is 39 centimetres.step-by-step explanation: the formula for the length of an arc in a circle is as displayed below.let the length of the minor arc de = xx = 2( pi )r × angle of sector / 360°from this, we will substitute the values given from the problem into the formula to obtain the length of the minor arc de.x = 2( pi )r × angle of sector / 360°r = radius = 25cmpi as an approximate value = 3.14angle of sector = 120°x = 2( 3.14 )( 25 ) × 120° / 360°x = 157 × 1 / 4x = 39.25x = 39 ( rounded to the nearest whole number as an approximate value )
