11, 12, 24, 25. The apothem of a regular polygon with n sides has length r=(t/2)cot(pi/n), where t is the side length.
15. 25:49, and 28. 25:36. A=1/2*P*r, where P is the perimeter and r is the length of the apothem, and P=2nr*tan(pi/n), so it increases linearly with r, therefore A increases quadratically with r. In fact, we have A=nr^2*tan(pi/n).
16. 6:7, based on reasoning in 15 in reverse
17. 6:7
20. A=(P/2)^2 cot(pi/n)/n, so if A=300 when P=20, then A=75 when P=10

2. C=2*pi*r, so the ratio is an same as that of their radii, a million:3. 3. a million/4 of how around the circle, so (pi/2)*24=12pi. 4. The arc has an attitude of one hundred twenty ranges, so it really is (2*pi/3)*8=16*pi/3 6. D=30, A=225*pi 7. D=14, A=40 9*pi thirteen. r^2=9/25, so r=3/5, so C=2*pi*3/5=6*pi/5 16. A=pi*r^2=pi*(2.5)^2=6.25*pi 20. portion of the circle is 400*pi^2, portion of the realm is a million/10 of that, so the degree degree is a million/10 of 360=36 ranges 21. portion of circle=225*pi^2. to get aspect s of sq., use shown reality that portion of sq. is s^2, so s=sqrt(225*pi)^2=15*pi=40 seven ft

they are all easy to answer but i dont think any body has the time to answer all of them. maybe you had to send them seperately, so people would take the time to answer them.
