Type of prism is decided by the name of base. Like it can be triangular, square, pentagon etc.

Given that prism is triangular so that means it's base is a triangle.

Given that Brad cuts the given triangular prism with a plane parallel to the base of the prism.

Now we have to find the shape of the cross section of that plane.

It is obvious that the plane obtaind after cutting the ptrism parallel to the base will be of same shape as base.

Hence required plane will be a triangle.

Complete the square on the following quadratic x2+10x+9=0

kakasveta [241]

Given a quadratic equation $x^{2} +ax+c=0$

1. the first thing we do when we want to compete the square, is write the coefficient of x as 2 times a number.

In our case the coefficient of x is 10, so we write 10 as 2*5

2. then we write + $5^{2}$ and - $5^{2}$ to the expression:

$x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2} -5^{2}+9=0$

$(x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2}) -25+9=0$

$(x+5)^{2}-16=0$

Answer: $(x+5)^{2}-16=0$

What is the measure of

stepan [7]

Answer:

Angle A is 37 degrees, Angle B is 82 degrees, Angle C is 61 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Exterior angles are the supplement of interior angles, so subtract 143 from 180 to find Angle A.

180 - 143 = 37

All angles add up to 180.

37 + 61 = 98

180 - 98 = 82
