A pentagonal prism is cut by a plane perpendicular to the base. What is the shape of the cross section that is formed?

Answer: A rectangle

Note: I am a bit confused between A), B), and C), but the answer I am going for is C).

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition, a cross-section is the intersection of a plane and a body of three dimensions.

A pentagonal prism has a pentagon as its base. and its lateral faces are rectangles.

If a plane perpendicular cuts the pentagonal prism to the base, this means that the plane is parallel to lateral faces, then, the shape of the cross-section that is formed is also a rectangle.

Which ordered pairs are in the solution set of the system of linear inequalities? y > x y < x + 1 (5, –2), (3, 1), (–4, 2)
steposvetlana [31]

To check which ordered pair (point) is in the solution set of the system of given linear inequalities y>x, y<x+1; we just need to plug given points into both inequalities and check if that point satisfies both inequalities or not. If any point satisfies both inequalities then that point will be in solution.

I will show you calculation for (5,-2)

plug into y>x

-2>5

which is clearly false.

plug into y<x+1

-2<5+1

or -2<6

which is also false.

hence (5,-2) is not in the solution.

Same way if you test all the given points then you will find that none of the given points are satisfying both inequalities.

Hence answer will be "No Solution from given choices".

Which sequence of transformations maps pre-image ABC to
matrenka [14]

Triangle ABC was reflected over the y-axis and  then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right

Transformation is the movement of a point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation are rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

Translation is the movement of a point up, down, left or right. If a point A(x, y) is translated b units up and a units to the right, the new point is A'(x + a, y + b).

Reflection is the flipping of a figure. If a point A(x, y) is reflected along the y axis the new point is A'(-x, y).

Triangle ABC is at A(1, 2), B(4, 6) and C(7, 3). If it is reflected over the y-axis, the new point is A*(-1, 2), B*(-4, 6) and C*(-7, 3). If it is then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right, the new image is:

A'(1, 4), B'(-2, 8) and C'(-5, 5)

Hence, Triangle ABC was reflected over the y-axis and  then translated 2 units up and 2 units to the right

How do I find x on the attached right triangle<br> ?
ioda

The value of x from the given triangle is 32√3/3

<h3>SOH CAH TOA identity</h3>

In order to determine the value of x, first we need to determine the hypotenuse side of the smaller triangle.

sin 60 = 8√2/H

H = 8√2/sin60

H = 8√2 * 2/√3

H = 16√2/√3
H = 16√6/3

For the value of x, we will use the expression

sin45 = (16√6/3)/x

1/√2 = 16√6/3x
3x = 16√12
3x = 32√3

x = 32√3/3

Hence the value of x from the given triangle is 32√3/3
