GEOMETRY-2


Find the value of m in the following figure.





Solution

m + m + 400 = 1800

2m + 400 = 1800

2m + 400 – 400 = 1800 – 400

2m + 0 = 1400

2m = 1400

2m  = 1400
2           2

m = 700

Hence the value of m is 700

PERIMETER OF A SEMI-CIRCLE-1


Find perimeter of the following semi-circle



Suluhu

Perimeter = D + D
                      2

                   = ( 1122  X 70490 )    +  490
                           17          12

                   = (11 x 70 ) + 490

                   = 770 + 490

                   = 1260


Hence Perimeter is  1260 m


PERIMETER OF TRIANGLE-1



Perimeter of the following triangle is 140. Find the value of a.




Solution.

Perimeter = total of all sides

      100 = 2a + 5a + 3a

      100 = 10a

      10 100    = 110a
         110         110
 
      a = 10


Hence a is 10



ALGEBRA-4

if  11w = 25; then find w


Solution


11w = 25


11w = 25          [divide by 11 on both sides]
11       11


w = 23/11 



Hence w = 23/11
