For this problem, if we used b to represent your base angle measurement, you would add 8b+2b and set it equal to 180. This is because the measure of the vertex angle is 8 times the base angle measurement, so we had to multiply b by 8. We also had to add it to the other angle measures, so the other angle measures are represented as 2b since they are the same length. We then have to set this equal to 180 since that measures of a triangle must add up to 180. Then we combine like terms on our “b” side to get 10b=180. Then we divide both sides by 10 and we get b=18, which is the measure of our base angle.

Find the height of a rectangular prism if the surface are is 288 square centimetres and the base has a length of 4 centimetres a
liraira [26]
The rectangular prism below is made up of 6 rectangular faces, and the faces opposite to each other are have an equal area.
The area of one of the faces is lxh or lh, and the area of the face opposite to it is also equal, so the area of those two equal faces is 2lh.
The area of the base of the prism is lxw, and the area of its opposite face is equal, so the area of those two equal faces is 2lw.
The area of the face in the left side of the prism is wxh, and the area of the face opposite to it is also equal, so their combined area is 2wh.
So, to find the total surface area of a rectangular prism, we’d add the sum of all the rectangular faces, so the formula of finding the surface area of a rectangular prism=
2lh+2lw+2wh
=2(lh+lw+wh)
Given,
Surface area of the rectangular prism=288 cm^2
2(lh+lw+wh)=288
2[4h+(4x9)+9h)]=288
4h+(4x9)+9h=288/2
4h+(4x9)+9h=144
13h+36=144
13h=144-36
13h=108
h=108/13
h=8.308 cm
Hope this helps!

If an object is dropped from a height of 96ft, the function h(t) = -62 + 96 gives the height of the object after t seconds. When
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:Since we want to know how much time elapsed since the object was launched until it ht the ground. At the ground, the height is 0.

 

Therefore the equation  h(t) = 80t – 16t2 becomes 0= 80t – 16t2

 

Solving the equation for t gives  80t =16t2 or 16t=80 or t=5sec

 

The object hits the ground 5 seconds after it is launched.

On the blueprint of a house, 40 millimeters represents 6 meters. The length of the living room is 50 millimeters on the blueprin
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

Convert the meters to millimeters

1m = 1000mm

6m = 6000mm

40mm represents 6000mm

Find the scale factor

6000/40 = 150

This means 40 * 150 = 6000

Yup find what 50mm represents:

50 * 150 = 7500

7500mm

7.5m
