0.696

Step-by-step solution

6 steps

Here are the solutions for the given problems.

1.3.1. Make 'h' the subject of the formula: A=πr(1+rh)A = \pi r (1 + rh)

  1. Expand the right side of the equation.

    A=πr⋅1+πr⋅rhA = \pi r \cdot 1 + \pi r \cdot rh A=πr+πr2hA = \pi r + \pi r^2 h
  2. Isolate the term containing hh by subtracting πr\pi r from both sides.

    A−πr=πr2hA - \pi r = \pi r^2 h
  3. Divide both sides by πr2\pi r^2 to solve for hh.

    h=A−πrπr2h = \frac{A - \pi r}{\pi r^2}

    The subject of the formula is h=A−πrπr2\boxed{h = \frac{A - \pi r}{\pi r^2}}.

    1.3.2. If A=250 mmA = 250 \text{ mm} and r=10 mmr = 10 \text{ mm}, find the value of 'h'.

  4. Use the formula for hh derived in 1.3.1 and substitute the given values A=250A = 250 and r=10r = 10.

    h=250−π(10)π(10)2h = \frac{250 - \pi (10)}{\pi (10)^2}
  5. Simplify the expression.

    h=250−10π100πh = \frac{250 - 10\pi}{100\pi}
  6. Calculate the numerical value.

    Using π≈3.14159\pi \approx 3.14159.

    h=250−10×3.14159100×3.14159h = \frac{250 - 10 \times 3.14159}{100 \times 3.14159} h=250−31.4159314.159h = \frac{250 - 31.4159}{314.159} h=218.5841314.159h = \frac{218.5841}{314.159} h≈0.69579h \approx 0.69579

    Rounding to three significant figures, the value of hh is 0.696\boxed{0.696}.
