Answer:
The second option, 1,008 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
This shape has 5 sides to solve for with reguards to surface area.
Let us solve for them all.
[1 & 2 - the triangles]
12 * 9 = 108 cm²
-> I am not going to divide since we have 2 congruent triangles
[3 - the bottom side]
25 * 12 = 300 cm²
[4 - the side facing away]
25 * 9 = 225 cm²
[5 - the side facing up]
25 * 15 = 375 cm²
Now we will add them together for the total.
108 + 300 + 225 + 375 = 1,008 cm²
The surface area for the triangular prism shown is 1,008 cm².
CE = CD + DE = 2DE + DE = 3DE = 8.7
DE = 8.7/3 = 2.9
CD = 2DE = 5.8
For the inscribed circle, where center is point D. The radius is length DE.
This is because the circle will touch the 3 points where the bisectors intersect with sides of triangle.
radius = 2.9
For circumscribed circle, the center will also be point D. The radius is CD.
The circle will touch 3 points of triangle, A,B,C.
radius = 5.8
You can multiply everything by 7 to make things simpler.
3x + 5 = 4
3x = -1
x = -1/3
The answer is 6 with a remainder of 4
