Answer:

The base is actually 8 in.

Pythagorean theorem says sqrt ( 4^2 + 6^2) = sqrt( 16 + 36) = sqrt(52) = 7.211 approximately

So the RADIUS of the circular base is 4 which makes the entire base (the diameter) equal to 8

Find the measurement of the angle formed between the line segments:

Explanation:

  • The base is actually 8 in.  
  • Pythagorean theorem says ( 4² + 6²)² = ( 16 + 36)² = (52)² = 7.211 (approx)  
  • So the radius of the circular base is 4 which makes the entire base (the diameter) equal to 8
  • tan-1(8) = 82.11°.
