Answer 1

the length of a segment indicated.

Answer 2

9514 1404 393

Answer:

8. C) 24.2

9. A) 8.1

Explanation:

8. The radius is shown as being 7.8 +4.3 = 12.1, so the diameter x is ...

d = 2r

x = 2(12.1) = 24.2

__

9. The unknown leg (y) of the right triangle can be found from the Pythagorean theorem.

y² +11.7² = 12.5² . . . . . the radius is half the diameter

y = √(156.25 -136.89) = √19.36 = 4.4

Then the segment of interest is ...

x + y = 12.5

x = 12.5 -4.4 = 8.1
