Answer:
Part 1) The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid
Part 2) The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in
Part 3) Molly needs to paint 228 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture of the question in the attached figure
Part 1) Which surface is shared by the two solids?
we know that
The surface that is shared by the two solids is the top of the cube that is the same that the square base of the pyramid
Part 2) What are the dimensions of this surface?
The surface is a square with side length 6 inches
so
The dimensions of this surface are 6 in x 6 in
Part 3) what is the area molly needs to paint?
we know that
The area that Molly needs to paint is equal to the surface area of the cube plus the surface area of the pyramid minus two times the area of the surface that is shared by the two solids
so
therefore
Molly needs to paint 228 square inches
Answer:
To find the exact vale of atan(-sqrt(3)) we're going to need the help of a calculator
atan(-sqrt(3)) = -1.04719755 rads.
If you take a look at the important angles, you will notice that the arc is minus 60 degrees which equals -1.04716755 radians.
