Answer:

\text{Volume of prism made by }\Delta XYZ=2304\text{ in}^3  

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that both prisms are similar, so we can use proportions to solve for the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ.

Let us find the proportion between the sides of both triangles.

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{24}{36}

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{12*2}{12*3}

\frac{\text{Side of triangle XYZ}}{\text{Side of triangle PQR}}=\frac{2}{3}

Since for volume of triangular prism we multiply base area and height of the prism, this means we will have to multiply the proportion of each side length 3 times to find the proportion of volumes between our both prism.

So we can set proportion for volume of both prisms as:

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=(\frac{2}{3})^3  

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle PQR}}=\frac{8}{27}

Upon substituting volume of prism made by triangle PQR we will get,

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{in}^3}=\frac{8}{27}    

Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 7776 cubic inches.

\frac{\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}}{7776\text{ in}^3}*7776\text{ in}^3=\frac{8}{27}*7776\text{ in}^3

\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=8*288\text{ in}^3

\text{Volume of prism made by triangle XYZ}=2304\text{ in}^3  

Therefore, the volume of prism made by triangle XYZ is 2304 cubic inches.

Which is SMALLER, -6.3 or -6.1?
Dominik [7]
I believe the answer is -6.3

my explanation is because -6.3 is less than -6.1 so technically it makes it smaller. if you were to add to -6.3 you would get -6.1 on the x axis.

Please help ASAP 40 PTS

Answer:

70

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle not marked in the top triangle is 40 degrees since it is an isosceles triangle.  That makes the angle opposite it in the other triangle 40 degrees since they are vertical angles and vertical angles are equal.

The bottom triangle has 3 angles that sum to 180 degrees,  The other angle not marked is also y since it is an isosceles triangle.

40 + y +y = 180

Subtract 40 from each side and combine like terms

40-40 +2y = 180-40

2y = 140

Divide by 2

2y/2 = 140/2

y = 70

The vertex angle of an isosceles triangle measure 40.whats the measure of the base angle?
Eddi Din [679]
I don't know if my answer is completely correct, but I think it's 100. All triangles add up to 180, and an isosceles triangle has 2 equal sides. 40 would be the 2 sides, and 180 subtracted from 80 equals 100.
