Explain the difference between the slant height of a pyramid and the height of the pyramid.
1 answer:
See the diagram below.
is the height, and 
is the slant height.
The height is the distance from the base of the pyramid to the vertex (the top of the pyramid). It runs perpendicular to the base.
The slant height is the distance from the base of the triangles which make up its sides to the vertex. It runs perpendicular to this base as well.

Factoring f(x) would give a factor (x-1-2i), so you can divide f(x) by this, leaving (x-3)(x+4)(x-1+2i), so the other roots are:
x=3
x=-4
x=1-2i
x=3
x=-4
x=1-2i
