Pangaea is the answer I had the same question.
*Answer* :
5.75
Explanation:
Let the unknown side = X
Cos() = adj/hyp
Cos(44)= X/8
X= 5.75
5.242 to the nearest tenth is 5.2.
6.537 to the nearest tenth is 6.5.
11.382 to the nearest tenth is 11.4.
The complete question in the attached figure
we know that
(see the attached figure n 2 to understand the problem)[the surface area of one prism]=2*[x*x]+2*[x*y]+2*[x*y]----> 2x²+4xy
[the surface area of the sculpture]=2*[5*x*y]+2*[3*x*x]+2*[3*x*y]--> 6x²+16xy
now
<span>JD says the surface area of the sculpture is 4 times the surface area of one prism
</span>[the surface area of the sculpture]=4*(2x²+4xy)---> 8x²+16xy
we compare the value that JD says with the real value
(8x²+16xy) > (6x²+16xy)
the value that JD says is <span>greater in comparison with the real value
</span>This is because <span>JD should also subtract the areas of eight hidden surfaces.
the answer is
</span>
JD should also subtract the areas of eight hidden surfaces<span>
</span>
