During the cleaning of the cooling system of a factory, a technician must adjust a light reflector fixed on the ceiling of the room. The reflector has the shape of a right circular cone with the vertex pointing upwards and an opening angle of 75º. The technician wants to calculate the height and the radius of the base of the cone to determine the ideal dimensions of the mirrors that will be installed on the inner surface of the cone, so that the reflected light follows a beam parallel to the floor. Consider that the angle of incidence of light on the inner surface of the cone should be 15º with the normal to the surface at the point of incidence to ensure total reflection of light. Based on this configuration, determine the height and the radius of the base of the cone, and additionally, identify the value of the sine and cosine of 22.5º, an angle that arises in the resolution of the problem.

João is organizing a birthday party and wants to make a larger quantity of his favorite cake recipe. The original recipe yields a cake with 20 slices and uses 3 cups of flour, 2 cups of sugar, and 1 cup of oil. João wants to make a cake with 40 slices. a) How many cups of flour, sugar, and oil should he use to make a cake that yields 40 slices? b) If he wanted to make a cake with 60 slices, what would be the quantity of cups of each ingredient? c) João noticed that the number of cake slices is always half the number of cups of water used in the recipe. How many cups of water are needed for a cake of 80 slices?

Imagine you are helping your younger brother with a Math assignment. He asked you what a rational number is. Explain to him, in a simple way, what a rational number is. Remember to mention the different ways a rational number can be written, such as fractions, decimal numbers, and recurring decimals.
