Let x = width length = 5x -10  (10 ft less than 5 times width) A = l * w A = (5x-10)*x 2640 = 5x2 -10x 5x2 -10x -2640=0 divide by 5 x2 -2x - 528 = 0 (x-24)(x+22)=0 x-24=0 x=24   width (the other factor would give us a negative length) length = 5*24 -10 length = 110

The circular base of a cone has a radius of 5 centimeters. The height of the cone is 12 centimeters, and the slant height is 13
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

Hence, the surface area of cone is:

282.6 cm^2 which is approx 283 cm^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given:

  • The circular base of a cone has a radius of 5 centimeters.

           i.e. r=5 cm.

  • The height of the cone is 12 centimeters

               i.e. h=12 cm.

  • The slant height is 13 centimeters.

                    i.e. l=13 cm.

Now we know that the surface area(S.A.) of cone is given by:

S.A.=\pi r(l+r)

Hence by putting the value of l,r and π in the formula we get:

S.A.=3.14\times 5\times (13+5)\\\\S.A.=15.7\times 18\\\\S.A.=282.6

Hence the surface area of cone is 282.6 cm^2 which is approx 283 cm^2.

Find the area and the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 17cm
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

d = 17 cm

r = 17/2 = 8.5 cm

Circumference of circle = πd

                                       = 3.14 * 17

                                       = 53.38 cm

Area of circle = πr²

                       = 3.14 * 8.5 * 8.5

                       = 226.865 cm²
