Assuming you want to find x?
You know that the angles at C and B have to be the same (6x) because it’s an isosceles triangle (as indicated by the lines going through AC and AB), and angles in a triangle add to 180*
So 3x + 6x + 6x = 180*
15x = 180*
x = 180*/15
x = 12*
Answer:
<em> 200cm²</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface area of the prism = bh + L(s1+s2+s3)
b is the base of the triangle = 15cm
h is the height of the triangle = 8cm
Perimeter of the triangular base = s1 + s2 + s3 = 8+17+15
Perimeter of the triangular base = 40cm
L is the lateral height = 2cm
Substitute the given values into the formula;
Total surface area of the prism = 15(8) + 2(40)
Total surface area of the prism = 120+80
Total surface area of the prism = 200cm²
<em>Hence the total surface area of the prism is 200cm²</em>
Answer:
x = -31/4 or x = 17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
|4x + 7| − 4 = 20
⇔ |4x + 7| − 4 + 4 = 20 + 4
⇔ |4x + 7| = 24
⇔ 4x + 7 = 24 or 4x + 7 = -24
⇔ 4x = 24 - 7 or 4x = -24 - 7
⇔ 4x = 17 or 4x = -31
⇔ x = 17/4 or x = -31/4
