30 - x + x + 40 - x = 80 - 20
70 - x = 60
-
x = 60 - 70
-
x = - 10
∴ x = 10
Music only = 30 - x
= 30 - 10
20
P(music only) = 20/80
= 1/4
= 0.25

In Δ PQS, ∠PSQ = X(base ∠s of isoc Δ PQS)
In Δ QRS, ∠RQS = ∠PSQ + X(Extr ∠ = sum of two intr. opp ∠s)
∴ ∠RQS = X + X
= 2X
Also ∠QRS = 2X(base ∠s of isoc Δ QRS in Δ PRS,
72 = ∠RPS + ∠PRS(Extr, ∠ = sum of two intr. opp ∠s)
∴ 72 = x + 2x
72 = 3x
x = 72/3
x = 24o

r = (\frac{2}{3})R
∴R = (\frac{3}{3})R
Area of small circle = πr2
= π((\frac{2R}{3}))2
Area of the big circle πr2 = π(\frac{(3R)^2}{3})
Area of shaded portion = π((\frac{3R}{3}))2 - π((\frac{2R}{3}))2
= π[((\frac{3R}{3}))2 - ((\frac{2R}{3}))2]
= π[((\frac{3R}{3}) + (\frac{2R}{3}) - (\frac{3R}{3})) - ((\frac{2R}{3}))]
= π[((\frac{5R}{3})) ((\frac{R}{3}))]
= π x (\frac{5R}{3}) x (\frac{R}{3})
= 5/9πR2

Volume of cylinder = πr2h
= π x 32 x 20
= π x 9 x 20
= 180 πcm3
Volume of hemisphere = 2/3πr3
= 2/3 x π x 32
= 2 x π x 32
= 2 x π x 9
= 18π
= Volume of the solid = 180π x 18π
= 198πcm3

∠PQR = 180 - 128 (∠s on a straight line)
= 52o
∠QPR + 76 + 52 = 180(extr ∠ = sum of intr. opp ∠s)
∠QPR + 128 = 180
∠QPR = 180 - 128
= 52o
∴ΔPQR is an isosceles triangle
Users' Answers & CommentsNo. of days | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
No. of students | 20 | x | 50 | 40 | 2x | 60 |
The distribution above shows the number of days a group of 260 students were absents from school in a particular term. How many students were absent for at least four days in the term
20 + X + 50 + 40 + 2X + 60 = 260
3X + 170 = 260
3X = 260 - 170
3x = 90
x = 30
Absent for at least 4 days
4 | 5 | 6 |
40 | 2x | 60 |
i.e 40 + 2x + 60 = 40 + (2 x 30) + 60
= 40 + 60 + 60
= 160

80 = (30 - x) + x + 40 - x + 20
80 = 90 - x, x = 90 - 80 = 10
N (music only) = 30 - x = 30 - 10 = 20
P (music only) = (\frac{20}{80} = \frac{1}{4})
= 0.25

< PRQ = 180o - 128o = 52o = < R
< P + < R + < Q = 180o
76o + 52o + < Q = 180o
128o + < Q = 180o
< Q = 180o - 128o
= 52o
