Answer:

Kevin need 14.14 feet of red tape  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: (Figure Attached)

Area of Square  = 25 square feet

As we know

Area of square = length x width = a x a = 25

a * a = 25

a =  ±5 by taking square root both sides

It means a = 5 as the length can not be negative

Now we know the length of sides of square and as shown in figure we can break the figure in two triangles,

By using Pythagoras theorem on one triangle we will find the length of one line of x and then multiply the x with 2 to get the overall feet of tape.

Hypotenuse^{2}  = Base^{2} + Perpendicular^{2}

Hypotenuse^{2} = x^{2} = 5^{2} + 5^{2}

x^{2} = 50

x = ± 7.07 It means x = 7.07

Now the total tape required is 2 * x = 2*7.07 = 14.14

1)The base of a triangular prism is a right triangle with a base of 20 feet and a height of 120 inches. The height of the prism
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

(1)750 cubic feet

(2)8 Times

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Question 1</u>

<u>Dimensions of the Right Triangular Base</u>

  • Base = 20 feet
  • Height= 120 inches = 10 feet

Base Area of the Prism

=\dfrac12 \times 20 \times 10\\=150$ square feet

  • Height of the Prism = 5 feet

Volume of the Prism = Base Area X Height

= 150 X 5

=750 cubic feet

<u>Question 2</u>

<u>Jake's Box</u>

  • Length: 12 inches
  • Width: 4 inches
  • Height: 8 inches

Volume = 12 X 4 X 8 =384 cubic inches

<u>Havana's box</u>

Havana has a shipping box similar to Jake's box, but each dimension is half as long.

Therefore:

  • Length: 12/2=6 inches
  • Width: 4/2=2 inches
  • Height: 8/2=4 inches

Volume = 6 X 2 X 4 =48 cubic inches

Now:

384/48=8

Therefore, the volume of Jake's box is 8 times larger than Havana's box.
