what is the approximate area of a regular pentagon with a side lenghtt of 6 feet and a distance from the center to a vertex of 6

feet

Degger [83]3 years ago

A regular pentagon may be divided into 5 congruent triangles.


If the side of the pentagon is 6 feet, each base of the triangles will be 6 feet.


If the distance from the center to a vertex is 6 feet, all the sides of the triangles will 6 feet.


So there are 5 congruent, equilateral triangles each with side equal to 6 feet.


The area one of those triangles is calculateb by:


base * height / 2


height ^2 = (side length) ^2 - (side length /2)^2 = 6^2 - 3^2 = 36 - 9 = 27


=> height = √(27) ≈ 5.2 feet


And, using area = base * height / 2 ,


area of a triangle = 6 feet * 5.2 feet / 2 = 15.6 feet^2


And the area of the entire pentagon equals 5 triangles ≈ 5 * 15.6 feet^2 = 78 feet^2


Answer: 78 feet^2

how many moles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are required to completely neutralize 2 mol of nitric acid (HNO3)
Brut [27]

2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be needed.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sodium hydroxide is a compound which is a base and nitric acid is the acid. The formula of the nitric acid is HNO3 and that of sodium hydroxide is NaOH.

The reaction between them are

NaOH +HNO3 =NaNO3 +H2O.

So here we can see that 1 mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of nitric acid to produce 1 mole of sodium nitrate and 1 mole of water.

So for 2 moles of nitric acid, 2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be required.

7. What is the prefix value for 100X?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

hecto-

Explanation:

The prefix value of 100 is hecto therefore 100X can be called hecto-x.

Such prefixes as this are expressed in the order of tens. Units generally exists scientifically in multiples and submultiples form using prefixes.

For the multiples:

             10                            deca(da)

            100                           hecto(h)

            1000                        kilo(k)

         1000000                    mega(M)

         1000000000            giga(G)
