What is the total surface area of the pyramid in square feet?
Elis [28]
Base is 12 feet square so 12 *12 = 144 square feet

each triangle has base of 12 feet and height of 8 feet
 area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 12 x 8 = 48 square feet

48 x 4 triangles = 192 square feet

total: 192 + 144 = 336 square feet

A triangle has squares on its three sides as shown below. What is the value of x? Three squares having side lengths 3 cm, x cm,
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle has three sides 3,x and 4 cms

Since the triangle is right angle triangle  so, it will follow the Pythagoras theorem:

hypotenuse^2=side^2+side^2    (1)

We have been given three sides x,3 and 4

On substituting the values in (1) we get:

x^2=3^2+4^2

x^2=9+25

\Rightarrow x=5

Hence, the value of x is 5 centimeters.

Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Please look at the attachment for the figure.

Given the venn diagram, find P(brother and sister)
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Based on the venn diagram of siblings, the probability of having a brother and sister is c. 0.33.

<h3>What is the probability of brother and sister?</h3>

The probability of having a brother and sister can be found as:

= Number of those with brother and sister / Total number of people in poll

Solving gives:

= 10 / (8 + 10 + 5 + 7)

= 10 / 30

= 0.33

In conclusion, the probability of having a brother and sister is 0.33.
