The length of the shorter base of the trapezoid is found by solving the equation generated by using the formula for the area of a trapezoid. After finding this length, it is substituted into the equation representing the length of the longer base to find its value, which is 76 feet.
Explanation:To solve this problem, let's denote the length of the shorter base of the trapezoid as 'a'. According to the problem, the length of the longer base is then 5a - 19. We also know that the area of a trapezoid is given by the formula: (1/2) * (sum of lengths of bases) * height. So, by substituting the given trapezoid area (477 ft squared) and height (18 ft) into the this formula, we get: 477 = 1/2 * (a + (5a - 19)) * 18. Solving this equation will give us the value of 'a'. As calculating 'a' we find it to be 19. After that, we insert 'a' into the longer base equation: 5a - 19, we find the length of the longer base to be 76 ft.

Find the length of the diagonal of this rectangle.
Answer:
The length of the diagonal of the given Rectangle is, 11.80 m (Approx.)
Step-by-step explanation:
In Rectangle:
* It is a four sided shape where every angle is a right angle.
* The alternative sides are equal.
*Two axes of symmetry bisect each other.
* Diagonals are equal in length.
The figure of rectangle has given the length [tex]l[/tex] = 10m
In right angle triangle ADC.
DC = 10 m ( as alternative sides are equal )
Note that we are given here the adjacent and we have to find the length of hypotenuse, then we use trigonometric ratio that contains both sides adjacent and hypotenuse.
Use: [tex]Cosine = \frac{Adjacent}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
then,
[tex]\cos 32^{\circ} = \frac{10}{AC}[/tex] or
[tex]Ac = \frac{10}{\cos 32^{\circ}} =\frac{10}{0.8480481}[/tex]
On simplify we get;
AC = 11.791784 m
therefore, the length of the diagonal of this rectangle (AC) is, 11.80 m (Approx)

What is the angle of elevation from jim to the top of the waterfall
Answer: <7
Step-by-step explanation:
When two straight lines or rays intersect at a shared endpoint, an angle is generated. The angle of elevation from Jim to the top of the waterfall is ∠5. The correct option is B.
What is an angle?When two straight lines or rays intersect at a shared endpoint, an angle is generated. An angle's vertex is the common point of contact. Angle is derived from the Latin word angulus, which means "corner."
The angle of elevation is an imaginary angle that is assumed between the horizontal line and the line through which an object at a height is been seen.
In the given image the angle of elevation from Jim to the top of the waterfall is the angle formed by the line parallel to the horizontal plane and the line that connects Jim's eyesight to the top of the waterfall.
Hence, the angle of elevation from Jim to the top of the waterfall is ∠5.

5. The world’s largest round pizza, which also happened to be gluten-free, was set in December 2012 by five Italian chefs. The diameter of this pizza was 131 feet. If this pizza was cut into 50 slices, what would be the area of each slice and the length of the crust for the slice? Explain what concepts of a circle these calculations related to.
Final answer:
The differences between secant and tangent lines, and between inscribed and central angles, involve the number of intersection points with the circle and the position of the vertex, respectively. Constructing an inscribed circle involves finding the incenter, while a circumscribed circle requires finding the circumcenter. To find the center and radius of a circle using its equation, we use the standard form (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r².
Explanation:
Differences Between Secant Lines, Tangent Lines, Inscribed Angles, and Central Angles
A secant line is a line that intersects a circle at two points, while a tangent line touches the circle at exactly one point. An inscribed angle is an angle formed by two chords in a circle that meet at one point in the circle, whereas a central angle is an angle whose apex (vertex) is the center of the circle.
Constructing Inscribed and Circumscribed Circles in a Triangle
To construct an inscribed circle (incircle) of a triangle, draw the angle bisectors of the triangle's angles to find the incenter, and then use this point to draw the circle that touches all three sides of the triangle. For a circumscribed circle (circumcircle), draw the perpendicular bisectors of the triangle's sides and the point where they intersect will be the circumcenter; use this as the center to draw the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle.
Finding the Center and Radius of a Circle Using an Equation
Given a circle's equation in the standard form (x - h)² + (y - k)² = r², the center is at point (h, k), and the radius is the square root of r². For example, if we have the equation (x - 3)² + (y + 2)² = 16, the center is (3, -2) and the radius is 4 units.
Area and Length of the Crust of a Circular Pizza Slice
For the world's largest round pizza with a diameter of 131 feet, the radius would be 65.5 feet. The area of each slice is a fraction of the whole pizza's area, which can be found using the formula A = πR², and the length of the crust for the slice corresponds to the arc length of that slice.
Area of whole pizza = 3.14 * 65.5² ≈ 13478.2 ft²
Area of each slice = total area /50 = 13478.2/50 ≈ 269.5 ft²
Length of crust = 2πR * (slice area/total area)
= 2 * 3.14 * (1/50)
≈ 0.125 ft

The vertices are given as:
[tex]\mathbf{A = (-4,1)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{B = (-7,5)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{C = (0,1)}[/tex]
The area of the triangle is:

A company plans to enclose three parallel rectangular areas for sorting returned goods. the three areas are within one large rectangular area and 10641064 yd of fencing is available. what is the largest total area that can be enclosed?
First get the perimeter
Perimeter: 2l + 2w = 1064 yd
The region inside the fence is the area
Area: A = lw
We need to solve the perimeter formula for either length or width.
2l + 2w = 1064 yd
2w = 1064 yd – 2l
W = 1064– 2l / 2
W = 532 – l
Now substitute than to the area formula
A = lw
A = l (532 – l)
A = 532 – l^2
Since the equation A represents a quadratic expression, rewritte the expression with the exponents in descending order
A(l) = -l^2 + 532l
Then look for the value of the x coordinate
l = -b/2a
l = -532/2(-1)
l = -532/-2
l = 266 yards
Plugging in the value into our calculation for area:
A(l) = -l^2 + 532
A(266) = -(266)^2 + 532 (266)
A(266) = 70756+ 141512
= 70756 square yards.
Thus the largest area that could encompass would be a square where each side has a length of 266 yards and a width of:
W = 532 – l
= 532 – 266
= 266
It should be noted that the largest total area that can be enclosed will be 70756 yards².
How to calculate the area.Firstly, we have to calculate the perimeter. This will be:
2l + 2w = 1064 yd
Area: A = length × width
2l + 2w = 1064 yd
2w = 1064 yd – 2l
W = 1064– 2l / 2
W = 532 – l
Since Area = lw
A = l(532 – l)
A = 532 – l²
A(l) = -l² + 532l
l = -b/2a
l = -532/2(-1)
l = -532/-2
l = 266 yards
The length is 266 yards.
Area = -l² + 532
A( = -(266)² + 532 (266)
Area = 70756+ 141512
Area = 70756 yards²
