Answer:

12.04

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to solve for the unknown side "c" we need to use the Pythagorean Theorem formula,

$a^2 + b^2 = c^2$

We already have a and b which are 8 and 9 so we plug them in.

$(8)^2 + (9)^2 = c^2$

64 + 81 = c^2

145 = c^2

c = 12.04 rounded to the nearest hundredth.

Thus,

the unknown side is about 12.04.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

384 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Fabric used will be equal to the total surface of the cubical block.

$fabric \: used \\ = 6 {side}^{2} \\ = 6 \times {8}^{2} \\ = 6 \times 64 \\ = 384 \: {cm}^{2} \\$

Answer:

$x=32$ °

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines is a property of all triangles that relates the sides and angles of a triangle. This property states the following:

$\frac{sin(a)}{A}=\frac{sin(b)}{B}=\frac{sin(c)}{C}$

Where side (A) is the side opposite angle (<a), side (B) is the side opposite angle (<b), and side (C) is the property opposite angle (<c).

Substitute each of the sides and respective angles into the formula, and solve for the unknown angle (<x). Please note that a triangle with two congruent sides (referred to as an isosceles triangle) has a property called the base angles theorem. This states that the angles opposite the congruent sides in an isosceles triangle are congruent. Therefore, there can be two (<x)'s in this triangle.

$\frac{sin(a)}{A}=\frac{sin(b)}{B}=\frac{sin(c)}{C}$

$\frac{sin(x)}{10}=\frac{sin(116)}{17}=\frac{sin(x)}{10}$
