If the dimensions were all the same number ... the box was a cube ...
then each dimension would be (the cube root of 13,800) cm.
∛13,800 = 23.986... (rounded)
so the place to look is around 23 .
(22 x 23 x 24) = 12,144 <== too small; go up one integer
(23 x 24 x 25) = 13,800 <== Eureka !
The consecutive integers are 23, 24, and 25 .
Answer: x = 9.6
=========================================================
Explanation:
We have two smaller right triangles that are glued together so to speak.
The base of the smaller triangle on the left is 5 while the height is h.
Let's use the tangent rule to find the value of h
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(55) = h/5
5*tan(55) = h
h = 5*tan(55)
h = 7.14074003371058
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. That value of h above is approximate.
--------------------------
Now focus on the smaller triangle on the right
It has the same height value h. This side is the adjacent side while x is the hypotenuse.
We'll use the cosine ratio
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(42) = h/x
cos(42) = 7.14074003371058/x
x*cos(42) = 7.14074003371058
x = 7.14074003371058/cos(42)
x = 9.6088135029715
x = 9.6

In geometry,
A point represents a point
Two points define a line extended on both sides of the points.
Two points define a ray if it extends on only one side of either of the points.
Three or more than three points define a plane.
Now as far as a wall is considered, it is a flat surface on which we can plot infinite points.
Hence the wall represents a plane.
Option C) is the right answer.
The answer is 10x^4 - 2x ^3
