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

do they give u answers to pick?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lhxza2 theyre A) 1/6 ...B) 1/4.....C) 2/3.....D) 3/2..... E) 3/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u want the answer?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lhxza2 yup lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok its c 2/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@lhxza2 thank you !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jdoe0001 hey again, do you have an idea?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ur welcome

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

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 :)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

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.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmm ok... wait.. they'd want the ratio of arcBC to arcDE... well... get the arc's length first then simplify

@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 :)
