A rectangular prism is defined by three lengths.
We can find out how many unit cubes would be in a prism by multiplying these three lengths together--that's how we find our <em>volume</em>.
Similarly, we can come up with different ways to multiply together three different numbers and make 18.
Each combination would be a new rectangular prism, with one catch:
Order doesn't matter. A prism with lengths 2, 2, and 3 is the same as one with lengths 2, 3, and 2, so don't make that mistake.
To find each combination, keep splitting 18 in different ways.
If one of the ways we split it can also be split, we need to write out that, too.
Here are the possible combinations:
18 × 1 × 1, obviously
9 × 2 × 1. splitting off 2
6 × 3 × 1. splitting off 3
4 × 6 × 1. our next biggest we can take out is 6, which can also be split...
4 × 3 × 2. there's the split of 6 into 2 and 3
<em>(3 × 6 × 1 is a repeat.)</em>
3 × 3 × 2 is new, though
<em>(2 × 9 × 1 is a repeat...)
</em><em>(2 × 3 × 3 is a repeat...)
</em>(aaaand 1 × 1 × 18 is a repeat. let's count up our combinations.)
<em>
</em>
There are 6 possible ways to multiply numbers together and get 18...
So 6 possible rectangular prisms.
A)f(4)=6(4)-9=24-9=15
B)f(1/2)=6(1/2)-9=3-9= -6
Answer:
37 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
First, since the triangles are similar, find out how much larger STR is than HIJ by finding an similar side and dividing the numbers. Since the only similar side that we know both numbers on it ST and HI, so we divide 10 by 4 to get the unit rate, which is 5/2. The missing side on STR is the bottom, so to get it, multiply 6, the bottom of the other triangle, by the unit rate, 5/2, to get the answer of 15. Then, perimeter is all of the sides added up, so 10+12+15=37 cm.
(hope this helps :P)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this question we're going to use trigonometric identities and good ol' Pythagoras theorem.
a) Firstly, sec(θ)=52. we're gonna convert this to cos(θ) using:
we can substitute the value of sec(θ) in this equation:
and solve for for cos(θ)
side note: just to confirm we can find the value of θ and verify that is indeed an acute angle by 
b) since right triangle is mentioned in the question. We can use:
we know the value of cos(θ)=1\52. and by comparing the two. we can say that:
- length of the adjacent side = 1
- length of the hypotenuse = 52
we can find the third side using the Pythagoras theorem.
- length of the opposite side = √(2703) ≈ 51.9904
we can find the sin(θ) using this side:
and since
