Answer:
Cone
Step-by-step explanation:
Options:
a) Cone b) Cube c) Cylinder d) Triangular prism
From the given options (a) to (d), option (a) is true.
This is so, because.
The volume (V) of a cone is:
This is as a result of dilating the cylinder by 1/3 whose volume is:
In other words:
<em>i.e. the cross-section of the cylinder (V2) being dilated by 1/3 (which is between 0 and 1) gives the cone (V1)</em>
Hey there! :D
The biggest thing to remember here is the similar triangles and their side lengths.
Okay, so we can separate these triangles into 3 similar triangles. Which, we only need to do that to two for a proportion, but if you were to have more variables, you could separate the triangles even more if you needed to.
We want to find two triangles that have "x" has a value of their side, so we can solve a proportion.
The bigger triangle, (the whole two triangles combine) and the smaller triangle on the left can be used to make a proportion.
On the smaller triangle:
We have 9 cm on the shorter side and x as the hypotenuse.
On the larger triangle:
We have x as the shorter side, and then 25 as the hypotenuse. (9+16)
Note: You have to flip the larger triangle upside down to make it a similar structure to the other two triangles. It is similar, you just have to flip it.
So, now we can make a proportion.
Now, cross multiply.
9*25= 225
x*x=
So, find the square root.
√225= 15
x= 15.
I hope this helps!
