Given:

In a right triangle at B,

\begin{gathered} a=3 \\ A=15^{\circ} \end{gathered}

To find:

The length of the sides b and c and angle B.

Explanation:

Using the trigonometric ratio,

\begin{gathered} sinA=\frac{a}{c} \\ \sin15^{\circ}=\frac{3}{c} \\ c=\frac{3}{\sin15^{\circ}} \\ c=11.59 \\ c\approx11.6 \end{gathered}

Using the trigonometric ratio,

\begin{gathered} \tan A=\frac{a}{b} \\ \tan15^{\circ}=\frac{3}{b} \\ b=\frac{3}{\tan15^{\circ}} \\ b=11.19 \\ b\approx11.2 \end{gathered}

Using the angle sum property,

The angle B becomes,

\begin{gathered} 90+15+B=180 \\ B=180-90-15 \\ B=75^{\circ} \end{gathered}

Final answer:

The values are,

\begin{gathered} b=11.2 \\ c=11.6 \\ B=75^{\circ} \end{gathered}

A container in the shape of a square-based prism has a volume of 2744 cm'. What dimensions give the
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The dimensions that give the minimum surface area are:

Length = 14cm

width = 14cm

height = 14cm

And the minimum surface is:

S = 1,176 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular rectangular prism has the measures: length L, width W and height H.

The volume of this prism is:

V = L*W*H

The surface of this prism is:

S = 2*(L*W + H*L + H*W)

If the base of the prism is a square, then we have L = W

Then the equations become:

V = L*L*H = L^2*H

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*H*L)

We know that the volume of the figure is 2744 cm^3

Then:

V = 2744 cm^3 = H*(L^2)

In this equation, we can isolate H.

H = (2744 cm^3)/(L^2)

Now we can replace this on the surface equation:

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*L* (2744 cm^3)/(L^2))

S = 2*L^2 + 4(2744 cm^3)/L

Now we want to minimize the surface area, then we need to find the zeros of the first derivative of S.

S' = 2*(2*L) - 4*(2744 cm^3)/L^2

This is equal to zero when:

0 = 2*(2*L) - 4*(2744 cm^3)/L^2

0 = 4*L*L^2 - 4*(2744 cm^3)

4*(2744 cm^3) = 4*L^3

2744 cm^3 = L^3

∛(2744 cm^3) = L = 14cm

Then the length of the base that minimizes the surface is L = 14.

Then we have:

H = (2744 cm^3)/(L^2) = (2744 cm^3)/(14cm)^2 = 14cm

Then the surface is:

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*L*H) = 2*( (14cm)^2 + 2*(14cm)*(14cm)) = 1,176 cm^2
