You have a wire that is 38 cm long. you wish to cut it into two pieces. one piece will be bent into the shape of a square. the other piece will be bent into the shape of a circle. let a represent the total area of the square and the circle. what is the circumference of the circle when a is a minimum?

give your answer to two decimal places

16.71 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Length of wire L=38 cm

One piece is bent in the form of square and another in the form of circle

let x be the length of circle

therefore length of square side

A=total area of square and circle

radius of circle

area of circle

Area of square

To get the minimum value of A we get

Therefore circumference of circle

2/3

step-by-step explanation:

sas (side angle side)

aa (angle angle)

sss(side side side)

sas find two sides with an angle in between

aa is finding two angles and the third will add up to 180

sss find all sides
