Answer:

The perimeter of the new pentagon is 35\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its perimeters is equal to the scale factor

Let

z------> the scale factor

x-----> the perimeter of the dilated pentagon

y-----> the perimeter of the original pentagon

so

z=\frac{x}{y}

we have

z=\frac{5}{3}

y=21\ in

substitute and solve for x

\frac{5}{3}=\frac{x}{21}

x=21*5/3=35\ in

What is the volume of the following triangular prism?
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

V=150cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find area of the triangle with a base of 4 cm and a height of 5cm, and then multiply that by the length of the prism of 15cm.

The area of the triangle is given by the  formula:

A_T=\frac{bh}{2}

where b is the base: b=4cm and h is the height: h=5cm

thus, in this case we have:

A_T=\frac{(4cm)(5cm)}{2}\\ \\A_T=\frac{20cm^2}{2} \\\\A_T=10cm^2

And now, the volume will be the area of the triangle multiplied by the length l=15cm of the prism:

V=A_T*l

Substituting the known values:

V=10cm^2*15cm\\V=150cm^3

The volume in cubic centimeters is 150.
