Answer:

The volume of the larger rectangular prism is $648\ cm^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

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

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x-----> the volume of the larger rectangular prism

y-----> the volume of the smaller rectangular prism

$z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}$

In this problem we have

$z=\frac{12}{4}=3$ ---> the scale factor is equal to the ratio of its corresponding sides

$y=24\ cm^{3}$

substitute and solve for x

$3^{3}=\frac{x}{24}$

$x=27*24=648\ cm^{3}$

Question: If the triangle is right, the hypotenuse is?? Plsss help

raketka [301]

Answer:

the hypotenuse of the given triangle is 48.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

the ways to detect the hypotenuse of a triangle are :

longest side of a right angled triangle is the hypotenuse of the triangle .
side opposite to the right angle ( 90° ) is the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle .

 in the given figure the longest side is 48.5, hence it's the hypotenuse....

Can anyone help me with this question please:

The problem is asking us to isolate B. The given equation is solved for P, and we need to rearrange it for B.

First we need to square both sides. This will cancel out the square root on the right side.

P^2 = E + A^2/B^2

Next, subtract E from both sides.

P^2 - E = A^2/B^2

Next we need to get the B^2 out of the denominator. Multiply both sides by B^2.

B^2(P^2 - E) = A^2

Next divide both sides by (P^2 - E).

B^2 = A^2/(P^2 - E)

Lastly, take the square root of both sides.

B = sqrt(A^2/(P^2 - E))
