(a) 314.2cm², (b) 157.1cm², (c) 78.55cm² (e) 6.77

Step-by-step explanation: (a)  Area of the circle with radius of 10 cm = πr²

                                                                          = 3.142 × 10 × 10

                                                                          = 3.142 × 100

                                                                          = 314.2cm²

The formula                                                       = πr²

(b)  Area of the half of a circle known as semicircle

                                                                         = πr²/2

                                                                         = 3.142 ×10 × 10/2

                                                                         = 3.142 × 50

                                                                         = 157.1cm²

The formula                                                      = πr²/2

(c)  A quarter of a circle is called quadrant

                                                            = πr²/4

                                                            = 3.142 × 10 × 10/4

                                                            = 314.2/4

                                                            = 78.55cm²

The formula is written thus = πr²/4, which implies that the circle is divided into 4 unit

(d) The conjecture about how to determine the area of the sector is

Formula of a sector = ∅/360(πr²)

Information

The arc  cant be 60°, therefore information incomplete.

(e) Area of the sector with the angle AOB of 60° = 24.

To find the radius of the angle, make v the subject of the formula from the formula.

Sector area = πr²∅/360°

equate formula to 24.

Therefore πr²∅/360° = 24

Multiply through by360° to make it a linear expression

It now becomes πr²∅ =24× 360°

                                                     r² = 24  x 360/π × ∅°

                                                     r² = 24 × 360° /3.142 × 60°

                                                     r² = 3,640/188.52

                                                     r² = 45.8

To find r , we take the square root of both side by applying laws of indicies

                                    Therefore r = √45 .8

                                                      r = 6.77

(f)   General formula = ∅°/360° × (πr²)

angle substended at centre by the arc = x°

assuming the radius of the circle = ycm, Therefore,  area of the sector = { ∅°/360° × πy² }

i believe it's a.

i'm not sure on this one, most likely correct.

hello from mrbilldoesmath!

answer:   x^2 + y^2 = 1024

discussion:

the equation of a circle with center (h,k) and radius "r" is

(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2.

in our case

(x-0)^2 + (y-0) ^2 = 32^2 = 1024

you,
