The radius of the circle shown below is 17 yards. What is the length of the 300 degree arc?
Round your answer to the nearest whole number.
17 yd
300°

The length of the arc is 89 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, to find the length of an arc, we use the formula below;

Length of an arc = Theta/360 * 2 * pi * r

In this case, Theta = 300 and r = 17 yards

Length of the arc = 300/360 * 2 * 22/7 * 17 = 89.047619047583 which is 89 yards to the nearest yard

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
