A prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base. What shape is formed?

1 answer:

8 0

The shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be heart-shaped.

A prism is a polyhedron made up of n parallelogram faces that connect the n-sided polygon base, the second base, which is a translated duplicate of the first base, and the n faces. The bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them.

In the question, we are informed that a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base.

We are asked what shape is formed.

From the above discussion, we know that the bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them, that is, all cross-sections parallel to the base, will be congruent to the base.

Thus, the shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be heart-shaped.

A train travels from Washington DC to new york(225 miles). The train departs at 4:55 PM and arrives in New York at 7:55 PM. What

mylen [45]

Answer:

The average speed is:

$\var{v}=75\: miles/h$

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed equation is given by:

$\var{v}=\frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t}$

Were:

Δx is the displacement (225 miles)
Δt is the change in time (3 hours)

Then we have:

$\var{v}=\frac{225}{3}$

$\var{v}=75\: miles/h$

I hope it helps you!

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-2, 8) and (-10, 14)

vesna_86 [32]

Hello!

To find the slope we divide the difference of the y-values by the difference of the x-values as shown below.

$\frac{14-8}{-10+2} = -\frac{6}{8} = -\frac{3}{4}$

The slope of our line is -3/4.

I hope this helps!

What is the slope intercept form of (-1,-1) and (-4,-1)

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

y=-1

Step-by-step explanation:

use point slope formula y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

find m which is slope -1--1/-4--1= 0/-3= 0

plug in the equation and use the first point

y--1=0(x--1)

y=-1
