Answer:

The volume of the shipping box is V=27\ in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

The volume of the triangular prism is equal to

V=BH

where

B is the area of the triangular base

H is the height of the prism

In this problem we have

H=9\ in

<em>Find the area of the triangular base B</em>

B=\frac{1}{2}bh

we have

b=3\ in\\h=2\ in

substitute

B=\frac{1}{2}(3)(2)=3\ in^2

<em>Find the volume of the triangular prism</em>

V=BH

we have

B=3\ in^2

H=9\ in

substitute

V=(3)(9)=27\ in^3

A test has thirty questions worth 100 points. The test consists of True/False questions worth 3 points each and multiple choice
Vika [28.1K]
So let's break this question down.
You need a bit of both, right? Well we need to calculate how many multiple choices we can do whilst having true/false questions, and not going over or under on points.

So, let's pick a random number, 5. So let's do 8x5, that equals 40.
ohmygoditsrightiwasseriouslyjustguessing
Ok so now we have our number, 5 multiple choice questions. 
The true/false questions should be easy, just do 3x20 and you get 60.

What is the distance between a line that has endpoints at (1,5) and (1,-5)?
Tanzania [10]
Since the x values (1) and (1) are the same, we just have to worry about the (5) and (-5)

the distance between a (5) and (-5)
would be  (5) - (-5)
which is equal to   (5) + (5) = 10

therefore your answer would be C. 10

note that distance should always be a positive number

In the triangle below, which is equivalent to sinA?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
1. By definition, you have:

 Sin(α)=Opposite/Hypotenuse

 2. Then, SinA is:

 SinA=BC/AC

 A is the angle in the vertice "A".
 BC is the opposite leg to the the angle A.
 AC is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

 3. By definition, you have:

 Cosα=Adjacent/Hypotenuse

 4. Then, CosC is:

 CosC=BC/AC

 C is the angle at the vertice "C".
 BC is the adjacent leg to the angle C.
 AC is the hypotenuse.

 5. Therefore, the answer is the last option:

 The equivalent to SinA is CosC
