If AD = 2/3 AB, what is the ratio of the length of arc BC to the length of arc DE ? http://contentlaunch.ple.platoweb.com/testimagedb/3e/3ec0e4846b0b790dddea411fec9180ba
@jdoe0001
do they give u answers to pick?
@lhxza2 theyre A) 1/6 ...B) 1/4.....C) 2/3.....D) 3/2..... E) 3/4
u want the answer?
@lhxza2 yup lol
ok its c 2/3
@lhxza2 thank you !
@jdoe0001 hey again, do you have an idea?
ur welcome
well.. there's the assumption that AB = 1 and thus AD = 2/3AB = 2/3 since your choces are not in "AB terms" so the same, you'd use the arc's length formula so, we could say for the arcBC, the radius is AB = 1 thus you have the radius and angle, plug and chug for the arcDE, the radius is 2/3 thus you also have the angle and radius, thus plug and chug :)
arc's length = \(\large s = r\theta\)
@jdoe0001 thank you, I just wanted to double check lol. btw tell me when Im asking for too much.
hmm ok... wait.. they'd want the ratio of arcBC to arcDE... well... get the arc's length first then simplify
yw
@jdoe0001 A toy company manufactures sealed cubes that contain a colored liquid that glows in the dark. The liquid completely fills the cubes. If 8 cubic blocks with a side length of 1/6 m are needed to find the volume of each cube, how much of the liquid can each cube hold?
hmm tis easy posting anew... more eyes :)
