The constant of proportionality (K ) we will write

Perimeter = 3 ( side)  where K = 3

Perimeter of any polygon is defined as the sum of all sides of  polygon.

Given polygon is a triangle. A triangle is any polygon which has three sides.

And as the sides of a polygon increases the perimeter also increases.

One can say that perimeter and side of a polygon has a direct relationship.

That is when we write it mathematically we write it like:

Perimeter ( P ) ∝ Sides of polygon

However given is an equilateral triangle

this means that all sides of the triangle are equal

so let us consider the side of the triangle as "s"

Thus we get that perimeter will be 3 times s

which when mathematically written will be:

Perimeter ∝ ( side)

to remove the constant of proportionality (K ) we will write

Perimeter = 3 ( side)  where K = 3

Find the volume and surface area of this prism.
mina [271]

Answer:

V = 408 cm cubed

SA = 558 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a prism, multiply the area of the base by the height. This is 1/2 times width times height times length.

V =1/2 l*w*h =1/2* 6*8*17 = 408

To find the surface area of a prism, find the area of the triangular base and the area of each rectangular side.

Area of the base is A = 1/2 * b*h = 1/2 * 6 * 8 = 24. Since there are 2 bases, the area is 48.

Area of the rectangular side is A = b*h = 17*10 = 170. Since there are three, the area is 3*170 = 510.

The surface area of the prism is 48 + 510 = 558.

PLEASE HELP THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE. IF POSSIBLE PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT YOUR ANSWER
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To be right triangle has to verify the Pythagorean Theorem

hypothenuse² = (side 1 )² + (side 2)²

Since the hypothenuse is the largest of the sides we consider the largest number the hypothenuse and check the relation.

16, 30, 34

34² = 16²+30²; 1156 = 1156 ✅

16, 30, 34 are measurements of a right triangle

8, 14, 16

16² = 8² +14²; 256 = 260 ❌

8, 14, 16  is not a right triangle

10, 12, 16

16² = 10² +12²; 256 = 244 ❌

10, 12, 16 is not a right triangle

5, 12, 13

13² = 12²+5²; 169 = 169 ✅

5, 12, 13 are measurements of a right triangle
