The 20-inch rod forms a right triangle with the 15 inches tall box

The value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

<h3>How to determine the value of x</h3>

To calculate the value of x, we make use of the following Pythagoras theorem

20^2 = 15^2 + x^2

Evaluate the exponents in the above equation

400 = 225 + x^2

Subtract 225 from both sides of the equation

175 = x^2

Take the square root of both sides

x = 13.2

Hence, the value of x in the diagram is 13.2 inches

Need help asap show your work
Monica [59]

To find the volume we use an equation:

volume = length x width x height

Since this shape is a cube, you only need to know one side to find the volume since all of the sides are equal.

So all you need to find the volume is to multiply 4(1/2) which I am going to simplify to 4.5, is plug it into the equation.

volume = 4.5 x 4.5 x 4.5

Which will get you an answer of 91.125 inches cubed

91.125in^{3}

Hope this helps :)
