Answer

6.06 m\text{6.06 m}

Step-by-step solution

5 steps

To show that x=6.06x = 6.06 m, we need to equate the perimeter of the parallelogram to the circumference of the circle.

  1. Calculate the circumference of the circle.

    The formula for the circumference of a circle is C=2πrC = 2\pi r.
    Given radius r=4r = 4 m.

    C=2×π×4C = 2 \times \pi \times 4 C=8π mC = 8\pi \text{ m}
  2. Set up the expression for the perimeter of the parallelogram.

    The formula for the perimeter of a parallelogram is P=2(a+b)P = 2(a+b), where aa and bb are the lengths of the adjacent sides.
    Given sides are 6.51 m and xx m.

    P=2(6.51+x) mP = 2(6.51 + x) \text{ m}
  3. Equate the perimeter of the parallelogram to the circumference of the circle.

    2(6.51+x)=8π2(6.51 + x) = 8\pi
  4. Solve for xx.

    Divide both sides by 2:

    6.51+x=8π26.51 + x = \frac{8\pi}{2} 6.51+x=4π6.51 + x = 4\pi

    Subtract 6.51 from both sides:

    x=4π−6.51x = 4\pi - 6.51
  5. Calculate the numerical value of xx and round to 2 decimal places.

    Using the value of π≈3.14159265...\pi \approx 3.14159265...:

    x≈4×3.14159265−6.51x \approx 4 \times 3.14159265 - 6.51 x≈12.5663706−6.51x \approx 12.5663706 - 6.51 x≈6.0563706x \approx 6.0563706

    Rounding to 2 decimal places, we look at the third decimal place. Since it is 6 (which is 5 or greater), we round up the second decimal place.

    x≈6.06 mx \approx 6.06 \text{ m}

    Thus, we have shown that x=6.06 mx = \boxed{\text{6.06 m}}.
