Geometry help, please!!!! @Shadow
Just searching for le formula
Okay, thank you
@Vocaloid How would you do this one?
Cause here's what I'm tempted to do. A and S make the diameter. Thus arc ARS is 180 degrees. So AR + RB + BS = 180 We have AR and RB. We solve for BS algebraically.
Then to solve for RS, we just do RB + BS.
seems simple-ish enough
But hold the phone.
*holds phone*
Okay. We're going to do something Vocaloid suggested. My brain is KFC basically so I'm going to copy and paste she wrote, and what I wrote. This idea follows the logic of "arcs AR and BS are equal on account of the chords being equal " - Vocaloid Thus you would do: \[AR + RB = RB + BS\]
okay, lemme get the numbers
AR(55) + RB(66) + AB (8) + RS(8) =137
What
Arc lengths
Don't add arc lengths and chords. Just the arc lengths.
okay AR(55) + RB(66) = RB(66) + BS(?)
Yes
Once you get BS, you can add it to RB and get RS
and how would i get the length of bs?
\[55 + 66 = 66 + BS\] Solve for BS
okay
55+66=121
Okay, and then what do you do
66+BS
^which is equal to
59?
is that wrong?
How did you get 59
I added together the measurments for the arcs and subtracted what i had from 180, which was probably wrong.
AR + RB = RB + BS 55 + 66 = 66 + BS 121 = 66 + BS BS = 55 Just shy of 180, so glad we didn't do my idea RB + BS 66 + 55 = 121
i was close XD
so what do we do now?
We're done. Review what I wrote.
okay, thanks
both sides equal 121
