Answer:

C. An ellipse

Step-by-step explanation:

If you cut a cone on the side with an angle that will produce an ellipse-shaped plane.

if you were to cut the cone perpendicularly to its height (as if the double cone on the picture was straight up), you would get a circle as the plane, because it would be a transversal cut of a <u>circular </u>cone.

If you cut it with an angle, you're stretching the circle... so you'll have an ellipse.

<u>It is NOT a parabola NOR a hyperbola,</u> since both would require the cross-section to go through the base... which it does not in this problem.  Please refer to the image below.

Two angles are supplementary. One is 56° more than three times three times the other. Find the measures of the angles.
kaheart [24]
Supplementary means they equal 180 when added. Therefore:

X+56+3x=180
Combine common units
4x+56=180
Subtract 56 from both sides
4x=124
Divide by 4
X=31

Now we know the smaller angle is 31 degrees. Now we plug that into the larger angle:
3(31)+56
93+56
149

The larger angle is 149 degrees.

I hope this Helps!

Multiply: 6√x * 4√y^3
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The third answer option is correct.  sqrt(x) = x^(1/2).  So sqrt(121) = 121^(1/2)
