to make a set for a stage, you bought a piece of lumber 9 feet long. How many 2 1/4 foot pieces can you cut from this piece of lumber? please answer ASAP

4 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of lumber = 9 feet

How many 2 1/4 foot pieces can you cut from this piece of lumber

To find the number of 2 1/4 foot pieces of lumber in a 9 feet of lumber, we will divide the total length of lumber by the length of each piece of lumber

9 ÷ 2 1/4

= 9 ÷ 9/4

= 9 × 4/9

= 36/9

= 4 pieces of lumber

Therefore, 4 pieces of 2 1/4 foot of lumber can be gotten from 9 feet of lumber

x = central angle apc = measure of minor arc ac

the two angles x and 30 add to 180, so x+30 = 180 and x = 180-30 = 150. the measure of minor arc ac is 150 degrees.

what we need to do from here is find the circumference and then multiply it by x/360 since there are 360 degrees in a circle. in this case, x = 150, so x/360 = 150/360 = 15/36 = 5/12. the shortest distance along the curve from a to c is 5/12 of the distance around the entire circle (aka circumference)

c = circumference

c = pi*d

c = pi*24

c = 24pi

now multiply this by 5/12 to get

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(circumference)

distance along minor arc ac = (5/12)*(24pi)

distance along minor arc ac = 10pi

the formula you can use is

l = (x/360)*pi*d

with

l = length of minor arc

x = central angle

d = diameter

which essentially is the steps we took though a bit differently.
