The lateral area is 117 square centimeters and the surface area is 292.72 square centimeters

<h3>How to determine the lateral area?</h3>

The given parameters are:

Base length (b) = 6
Slant height (l) = 13

The lateral area is calculated using:

Lateral = 0.5 * (Perimeter of base) * Slant height

This gives

Lateral = 0.5 * (3 * 6) * 13

Evaluate

Lateral = 117

Hence, the lateral area is 117 square centimeters

<h3>How to determine the surface area?</h3>

The surface area is calculated using:

Surface = l²√3

This gives

Surface = 13² * √3

Evaluate

Surface = 292.72

Hence, the surface area is 292.72 square centimeters

It’d be 2=-2 ... but then subtract two from both side and the answer is a null set. Also known as “no solution”..

Best of luck in your studies :)

U - 4u + 4 = 7 what is U

valentina_108 [34]

Try to get the u’s on one side so for this to happen, you would subtract the four from both sides.
u - 4u = 7 - 4

combine like terms

-3u = 3

divide by -3

u = -1

Which angle has a sine of -1/2 and a cosine of -√3/2

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

$\sin x=-\dfrac{1}{2} < 0\\\\\cos x=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2} < 0\\\\therefore\ x\in(180^o;\ 270^o)$

$\text{We know:}\ \tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\\text{therefore:}\ \tan x=\dfrac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot\dfrac{2}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt3}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt3}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{\sqrt3}{3}$

$\tan x=\dfrac{\sqrt3}{3}\Rightarrow x=30^o+180^o\cdot k;\ k\in\mathbb{Z}$

$x\in(180^o;\ 270^o)\ therefore\ \boxed{x=30^o+180^o=210^o}$
