The answer is 1.66×10⁶ sheets of paper.

Monument is tall 555 ft. If 1 ft is 12 inches, than monument is tall 555 ft × 12 inches which is 6,660 inches.
Writing paper is approximately 0.004 inches thick.
The question is <span>how many sheets of paper are needed for 6,660 inches tall monument:
6,660 </span>÷ 0.004 = 1,665,000 = 1.66 × 1,000,000 = 1.66 × 10⁶ sheets of paper.

Here's another Math one worth 10.
tia_tia [17]
<span>In a 30-60-90  triangle the side opposite the 30 degree angle is half the length of the hypotenuse. 
The short leg is </span>the side opposite the 30 degree angle. If the short leg =x, then the hypotenuse = 2x

The ratio of the short leg to the hypotenuse in the given triangle is cos(60°)

&#10;cos(60^o) = \frac{adjacent \ side}{hypotenuse  } =  \frac{x}{2x} = \frac{1}{2}

A square has an area of 100m2. What is the length of each side? please help and explain!!!
Salsk061 [2.6K]
The length is 10 meters.

A square has 4 sides that are all the same length. This means that if one side was, say, 20 cm, every side would be 20 cm.

Recall that to solve for area, you simply have to multiply the length by the width. Since a square has all equal sides, the length and the width will be equal.

Since we know that the area is 100 m^2, we can make an equation:
n * n = 100
n = sqrt(100)
n = 10
