circle P , arc XYZ is a semicircle and mXZ=47. what is arc YZ

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1370815231046:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@FutureMathProfessor PLEASEEEEEEEE HELP

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what's 180 - 47.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

133

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that's the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh....cool :) thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im mad I spent forever trying to find something so simple

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lolz :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok hold on I have another please what is the surface area of a sphere with the circumference 24

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@FutureMathProfessor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Use the surface area formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

whats the form...I don't have it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i have the formula but im not coming ouy with the right answer... @FutureMathProfessor

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What's the formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GoldPhenoix please help me

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

With?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the formula is 4 pie r squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

equation above... @GoldPhenoix

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Formula for what?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

First off find R

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Surface area of a sphere?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then plug it in for R in your surface area equation

OpenStudy (anonymous):

surface area of a sphere have the formula but im workin it out and not getting the right answer

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

That is the formula.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i don't get it it doesn't give me the radius just the circumfrence

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's why you gotta find the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the formula is 4 pie radius squared

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

You can find the radius by using the circumference. You have to work backward. Radius --> Diameter (2r) --> Circumference (2r x pi)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Circumfrence of a circle: 2r*pi = C You have C, so solve for r.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1370818263236:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no..r is just the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Great so find r

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then plug R into the equation for the surface area of a sphere

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

We want to find the surface area of the sphere. If we have the circumference (24), then we must change the circumference into the radius. How? By going backward. So 24 divided by pi is 7.64. The diameter is 7.64. If you divide the diameter by 2, the radius would be 3.82. R = 3.82. Now just plug it in the formula, and that should be your answer. I hope this help. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its wrong well not the radius but when you do the problem its wrong @GoldPhenoix

OpenStudy (anonymous):

helpp

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@GoldPhenoix how do I find the surface area of a sphere though

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

you use the formula 4 pi r squared.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i did

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not getting the right answer..can u try it and see what u get

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

183.37 unit^2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok thanks :) are you still on i need more help!!!
