I think its A but im not absolutely sure
Answer:
x = 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then corresponding angles are congruent.
∠ I = ∠P ← substitute values and solve for x
3x + 4 = 72 - x ( add x to both sides )
4x + 4 = 72 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
4x = 68 ( divide both sides by 4 )
x = 17
Let's find the area of the base first:
7×7=49
The S stands for the sides of the base. Since you are multiplying them by each other, you are basically squaring them.
Let's now multiply the area of the base by the height.
49×12=588
Now, let's multiply by 1/3.
588×1/3 or 588÷3
196
So, the volume is 196 ft³.
Use pythagorean’s theorem
as you can see it’s a right isosceles triangle
so your equation is adapted to this:
p^2 + p^2=44^2
add like terms and simplify
2p^2=1936
divide by 2
p^2=968
square root
p= √968
simplify
p=22√2
the answer would be your second option
