Write each expression in simplest form. (√y-√3)(√y+2√3)
1 answer:
We write the expression in its simplest form and we are left with.
y²√3 + y - 6
Before proceeding let's define an algebraic expression.
<h3>Algebraic expression</h3>An algebraic expression is a set of numbers and letters that make up an expression that has a meaning, the letters are variables and the numbers are coefficients or independent terms, algebraic expressions can be part of an equation and model mathematical processes.
The first thing we will do is to write the expression:
(√y-√3)(√y+2√3)
Then we perform the multiplication, with the distributive property, which gives as a result
(y + 2√3y - √3y - 6)
y²√3 + y - 6

A tetrahedron is a triangular pyramid. It has four triangular faces and four vertices.
In the question, we are told that the length of the edges are all equal = 20m and the length from one corner to the center of the base = 11.5m
We sketch a diagram of a tetrahedron with the given measurement as shown below
To find the height, we will use the Pythagoras theorem
20² = h² + 11.5²
h² = 20² - 11.5²
h² = 267.75
h = √267.75
h = 16.36 (rounded to two decimal places)
