gpt | The volume of a sphere with radius $r$ is $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$. Here, we have $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=36\pi$. Dividing both sides by $\frac{4}{3}\pi$ yields $r^3 = 27$; cube rooting both sides yields $r=3$. The surface area of a sphere with radius $r$ is $4\pi r^2$; here, our surface area is $4\pi(3^2)=\boxed{36\pi}$. |

gpt | There are 10 cubes, thus, there are 10 sq. units in each of the faces facing towards us and away from us. The figure has a height of 3, so there 6 sq. units total in each of the vertical sides.

human | Billy is hiking in Colorado. He walks eastward four miles, then turns $60$ degrees northward and walks six miles. How far is he from his starting point? Express your answer in simplest radical form. |
gpt | Suppose Billy starts at point $A$, turns at point $B$, and ends at point $D$, as shown below. If Billy turns $60^{\circ}$ northward and walks six miles, then we can draw a $30-60-90$ triangle whose hypotenuse is $6$ miles (triangle $BCD$ below).

gpt | Draw a diagonal of the rectangle. By the Pythagorean theorem, the length of the diagonal is $\sqrt{6^2+8^2}=10$ centimeters. Also, by symmetry the diagonal of the rectangle is a diameter of the circle. The circumference of the circle is $\pi\times (\text{diameter})=\boxed{10\pi}$ centimeters. [asy]

gpt | First of all, we calculate that the length of $\overline{DC}$ is $17.8 - 5 = 12.8$. Since triangles $ADB$ and $BDC$ are similar, $BD/AD$ is equal to $CD/BD$, giving us the equation $x/5 = 12.8/x$. Multiplying both sides by $5x$, we get $x^2 = 64$, so $x = \boxed{8}$ units. |
human | A triangle is made of wood sticks of lengths 8, 15 and 17 inches joined end-to-end. Pieces of the same integral length are cut from each of the sticks so that the three remaining pieces can no longer form a triangle.

gpt | Our current triangle lengths are 8, 15, and 17. Let us say that $x$ is the length of the piece that we cut from each of the three sticks. Then, our lengths will be $8 - x,$ $15 - x,$ and $17 - x.$ These lengths will no longer form a triangle when the two shorter lengths added together is shorter than or equal to the lo... |

\frac{DG}{GF}=\frac{AH}{HF}.

\frac{DG}{3}=\frac{10}{10+3},

human | Joe has exactly enough paint to paint the surface of a cube whose side length is 2. It turns out that this is also exactly enough paint to paint the surface of a sphere. If the volume of this sphere is $\frac{K \sqrt{6}}{\sqrt{\pi}}$, then what is $K$? |
gpt | Since the cube has six sides, each of area $2^2 = 4$, the surface area of the cube is 24. Since Joe's paint will exactly cover the cube and it will also exactly cover the sphere, the sphere also must have surface area 24.
If $r$ is the radius of the sphere, this tells us that \[ 4 \pi r^2 = 24 , \]or $r^2 = 6/\pi$, s... |
human | The sides of triangle $CAB$ are in the ratio of $2:3:4$. Segment $BD$ is the angle bisector drawn to the shortest side, dividing it into segments $AD$ and $DC$. What is the length, in inches, of the longer subsegment of side $AC$ if the length of side $AC$ is $10$ inches? Express your answer as a common fraction. |
gpt | Without loss of generality, suppose that $BA < BC$. Since $BD$ is the angle bisector of $\angle B$, by the Angle Bisector Theorem, it follows that $$\frac{AD}{CD} = \frac{BA}{BC} = \frac 34.$$ Thus, $AD < CD$, so $CD$ is the longer subsegment of $AC$. Solving for $AD$, it follows that $AD = \frac{3CD}{4}$. Also, we kno... |
