I had a problem like this but it was different but what i divided was 216 divided by 12 and got 18 and 216 divided by 6 and got 36

So first to find the perimeter, you need to find the lengths of the sides. Since you have the area, you know that 216=length x width. Use w for width, and 6w for length (since length is 6 times the width). So 216= 6w x w = 6w^2. Divide this by 6 and you get 36=w^2. So now we know that width=6. And we know that length is 36. Now all you have to do is add those together. 36+36+6+6=84. Perimeter = 84 inches. (you can check your work by multiplying 36 x 6 which equals 216: the area you were given).

A right rectangular pyramid is sliced parallel to the base, as shown.
ELEN [110]

The answer would be the first choice.  15 cm^{2}

Explanation: The reason for this is that the question was pretty much just asking what the area of the resulting two-dimensional cross section would be -the shape in gray- (which can be found by using the formula lw. To add on, since the dimensions of the shape are already given (5 and 3) all you've to do is multiply: 3*5=15

That's how you get to the answer.

Given a soda can with a volume of 15 and a diameter of 2, what is the volume of a cone that fits perfectly inside the soda can?
Naddika [18.5K]
Check the picture below.

so, a cone, that fits inside the cylinder, will have the same height "h" and radius "r".  Thus


\bf \textit{volume of a cylinder}\\\\&#10;V=\pi r^2 h\qquad \boxed{\pi r^2 h}=15&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\textit{volume of a cone}\\\\&#10;V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}\implies V=\cfrac{\boxed{15}}{3}
