1. Johny walked in a garden start from point A. Then he walk to the west 14 meters to point B and he turn to the north 48 meters. The last position was named as C. If he want to go to C shortly, how far the distance?
Start position is A and the last is C. The illustration is
Look at the illustration. It is right triangle then we can use Pythagorean Theorem to determine distance from A to C.
AC = √(142 + 482)
= √(196+2304)
= √(2500)
= 50 m
So, Johny can walk 50m from A to C.
2. Look at the figure
Determine the degree of a+b.
a = 8x
b = 6x
the figure is supplementary then the sum of angles is 180°
a + b + a + b + 40° = 180°
8x + 6x + 8x + 6x + 40° = 180°
28x = 140°
x = 5
then a + b = 8x + 6x = 14x = 14(5) = 70°
3. There is a rectangular ABCD. AB = 12 cm, BC is 4/3 of AB. There is a point E 3cm from A and point F 9 cm from D. the center of diagonals is O. Determine the length of FO.
Illustrate the rectangular
Determining FO will be easier if we create a line from O to the up side of rectangular. Let it be G.
Now, focus on DFOG
FO = √(1.52 + 4.52)
= √(2.25 + 20.25)
= √22.5
= 15√10
So, FO = 15√10.
4. Determine the area of a rhombus if the perimeter is 20 cm and one of the diagonal is 6 cm.
Perimeter of rhombus = 4 x sides
20 = 4 x sides
Sides = 5 cm
One of diagonal is 6 cm.
Look at the illustration
Next step is determine length of another diagonal.
Using triple Pythagoras 3, 4, and 5 then it is 4 cm. So, another diagonal is 8 cm.
Area of rhombus = ½ x d1 x d2
= ½ x 6 x 8
= ½ x 48
= 24 cm2
So the area of the rhombus is 24cm2.
5. Area of a circle is 50.24 m2 (p=3.14). It will be fenced by using iron. If the iron price is $1 then determine how much the cost.
Area = 50.24
50.24 = pr2
50.24 = 3.14 x r2
r2 = 16
r = 4 m
then the circumference = 2pr
= 2 x 3.14 x 4
= 25.12 m
So the total cost is 25.12 x $1 = $25.12.
6. Look at the figure
If the area of triangle is 55 cm2 and the length of square is 14cm determine the shaded area.
The shaded area is area of a circle minus area of triangle.
Area of circle is determined by using length of square as the diameter.
Length of square = diameter = 14 cm. Then radius is 7 cm.
Area of circle = pr2
= 22/7 x 72
= 154 cm2
Then shaded area = 154 – 55 = 99 cm2
