Step 1
find the a<span>rea of the first cross section

area1=b1*h/2
b1=8 m
h=10 m
area1=6*10/2------> 30 m</span>²

step 2
find the area of the second cross section

area 2=b2*h/2
b2=12 m
h=10 m
area1=12*10/2------> 60 m²

step 3
 find <span>the difference in the areas of the cross sections
</span>difference=60-30------> 30 m²

the answer is

There are 5 appetizers to choose from, 10 main courses to choose from, and 2 desserts to choose from. if you pick 1 appetizer, 1
storchak [24]
Since there are 5 appetizers and 10 main courses, that already gives us 50 options. For each appetizer, you can pair it with ten different courses. That means for each appetizer, 10 options are possible. 10*5=50, so if there were only appetizers and courses, there'd be 50 choices. But there are also desserts. That gives us 2 times the possibilities (since for each previous possibility, you have two options for dessert). 2*50=100. There are 100 options.

When something is bisected, it is cut into two equal halves.

We know that SV cut RST into two parts.

Those two parts are RSV and VST

RSV = 64 and VST = 64

RST = RSV + VST = 64 + 64 = 128

The correct answer should be 128
