Hi,

Can someone please help me. My daughter needs help with these geometry questions. I'm ashamed to say that i suck at geometry so any help that i can get will be much appreciated.

1)What is the area of a sector of a circle that has a diameter of 10 in. if the length of the arc is 10 in. ?

a)25 sq in
b)50 sq in
c)75 sq in
d)100 sq in

2)In which one of the following figures is AB=AC?

a)longitudinal section
b)cylindrical section
c)cross section
d)middle section
 
Unfortunately, attempting to tutor through a "translator" who "doesn't speak the language" (and you say that you "suck" at it) does not, in my experience, show any great success. :oops:

Therefore, please have your daughter reply, showing her work and reasoning for each of these many exercises, so the tutors can "see" where she is and which parts are causing her difficulty. Thank you! :D

Also, please heed the information you should have read before posting. I'll quote part of it here for your convenience.

Don't post a list of homework problems. Please show us any work you have done towards answering the problem, and try to explain what specifically is giving you trouble. Also, please try to limit the number of questions you ask to a reasonable number per day. There's no exact limit, but try to be polite and not abuse the service.
Thank you.
 
Years of teaching lead me to believe this might be a "take-home' test....

We can help IF your daughter shows us what she has tried on each of these problems.

If you're looking for just answers, you've come to the wrong place.
