Answer:

There are words such as point, line, plane, and distance that are used frequently in geometry and other courses that are difficult to define. The words are generally described without a formal definition.

I think the most difficult word to define in geometry is point.

Other words like line, segment, circle, angle may be defined from other word based of the notion of point.

But point is a very abstract notion, because it does not have length, so a point is an imaginary think.

Once, you have the notion of point, you can figure out that a line is an infinite succession of points, and from that define other concepts.

Angle may also be found a dificcult word to define because it is the opening or amount of turn between two lines that have a common end point.

a rectangular prism measures 8 inches in width, 12 inches in length, and 4 inches in height. what is the surface area of the pri
laiz [17]

For this case we have that the surface area of the prism is given by:

SA = A_ {l} + 2B

Where:

A_{l}: Is the lateral area

B: It is the area of the base

A_ {l} = P.h

Where:

Q: It is the perimeter of the base

h: It's the height

A_ {l} = 40 * 4\\A_ {l} = 160 \ in ^ 2

On the other hand:

B = 12 * 8\\B = 96 \ in ^ 2

So, we have:

SA = A_ {l} + 2B\\SA = 160 \ in ^ 2 + 2 * 96 \ in ^ 2\\SA = 352 \ in ^ 2

Answer:

SA = 352 \ in ^ 2

ddd [48]

Answer: See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Create the equation:

$34 times the number of people plus the $50 cleaning fee has to be less than or equal to $3500

Or

34p + 50 <= 3500

34p <= 3450

p <= 101.470588....

We can have a part of a person attending the reception so we have to drop the remainder/decimal. Therefore the most amount of people that can attend the party and stay within budget is 101.
