An equation could be: p/3=4
To solve this equation: p/3*3/1=4*3/1
                                   : p=12
                                   : Paco is 12 years old--you are using what is called "Inverse Operation"!!!
(otherwise you could multiply 3*4 to get 12 by reversing operations)
I hope this helped you!

what is the surface area of a square pyramid with base side lengths of 10 inches and a slant height of 14 inches
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The surface area is 380\ in^{2}  

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the square pyramid is equal to the area of the square base plus the area of its four lateral triangular faces

so

SA=b^{2}+4[\frac{1}{2}(b)(l)]

where

b=10\ in

l=14\ in -----> the slant height

substitute the values

SA=10^{2}+4[\frac{1}{2}(10)(14)]

SA=380\ in^{2}

Find y. Do not round ! Geometry homework, plz help if you can/if you know how ;) thank you
zysi [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  y = 11.2 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of segment lengths to the near and far intersection points of the secant with the circle are the same for all secants from the same external point. Here, there are three, so we have the relations ...

  9×9 = 5(5+y) = x(x+19)

Then the value of y can be found as ...

  81/5 = 5+y

  16.2 -5 = y = 11.2

__

The value of x is a little trickier, as a quadratic is involved.

  81 = x² +19x

  81 + 90.25 = x² +19x +90.25 . . . . complete the square

  171.25 = (x +9.5)²

  x = √171.25 - 9.5 ≈ 3.58625...

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

For the purpose here, the tangent can be considered to be a degenerate case of a secant in which the two points of intersection with the circle are the same point. For the purpose of this calculation, the length of the tangent is squared. (The distance to the points of intersection is the same.)

I find it easier to remember one rule, rather than a separate rule for tangents. With some imagination, the same rule can be applied when the "secants" meet <em>inside</em> the circle. In that case, they are called "chords".

We have shown the value for x because we suspect some versions of this question may ask for x instead of y. (Rounding may be required in that case.)

A rotating light is located 20 feet from a wall. The light completes one rotation every 3 seconds. Find the rate at which the li
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

43.17 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the wall is y.

distance of wall from light is 20 feet.

tan\theta =\frac{y}{20}    

y = 20 tanθ    .... (1)

time period, T = 3 second

\frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{2\pi}{3}

Differentiate equation (1) with respect to t.

\frac{dy}{dt}=20sec^{2}\theta\times \frac{d\theta}{dt}

\frac{dy}{dt}=20sec^{2}10\times \frac{2\pi}{3}

dy/dt = 20 x 2.16

dy/dt = 43.17 ft/s
