Is it always true that trapezoids height is the distance between the 2 bases?

No. One side can be higher than the other side, therefore, a trapezoids height isn't always the distance between the 2 bases.

What is the approximate volume of a cone with a radius of 15 cm and a height of 4 cm? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

vichka [17]

Answer:

Volume of a cone $=942.86cm^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the radius of a cone is 15cm and its height is 4cm

That is r=15cm and h=4cm

To find the volume of a cone :

volume of a cone $=\frac{\pi r^2h}{3}$ cubic units

Now substitute the values in the formula we get

volume of a cone $=\frac{(\frac{22}{7}) (15)^2(4)}{3}$

$=\frac{(\frac{22}{7}) (225)(4)}{3}$

$=\frac{19800}{21}$

$=942.857$

Now round to nearest hundredth

$=942.86$

Therefore Volume of a cone $=942.86cm^3$

Which is the longest 2 km 25m 2500 cm or 3000 mm

MAVERICK [17]

2km=2 kilometer
kilo=1000 so 2 km=2000m

25m

2500cm
cm=centimeter=1/100 of a meter
so
2500cm=25m

mm=milimeter=1/1000 meter
so
3000mm=3m

so the longets is obviously 2000m or 2km

A plot of land has an area of 33.75 square feet. Jackson wants to put a 4-foot by 4-foot shed on the land. He can only do this i

Semenov [28]

The area of a trapezoid is
A = (1/2) h (b1 + b2)
where
h is the height
b1 is length of base 1
b2 is the length of base 2

We are given with the area and assuming that the trapezoid is isosceles, the length of base 1 is
b1 = 4 ft
If the height of the trapezoid is 4.5 feet, it ensures that the shed will fit inside the trapezoid patch of land. Therefore, the height of the trapezoid is 4.5 feet.
