Answer:

The lengths of the sides of the square base are  2\sqrt{2}\ units

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>

A triangular prism has an isosceles right triangular base with a hypotenuse of square root of 32 and a prism height of 12. a square prism has a height of 12 and its volume is equal to that of the <em><u>triangular</u></em> prism. what are the dimensions of the square base, in simplest radical form?

we know that

The volume of a prism is given by the formula

V=Bh

where

B is the area of the base

h is the height of the prism

so

If the volumes of the solids are the same and their  heights are the same, then the area of the base of the triangular prism must be equal to the area of the base of the square prism

step 1

Find the area of the base of the triangular prism

Remember that in a right isosceles triangle, the two legs are equal

Let

x ---> the length side of each leg

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

(\sqrt{32})^2 =2x^2

x^2=32/2\\x^2=16\\x=4\ units

The area of the triangular base is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(4)=8\ units^2

step 2

Find the dimensions of base of the square prism

Let

b ---> the length side of the square base

The area of a square is given by the formula

A=b^2

we have

A=8\ unit^2 ----> is the same that the area of triangle

substitute

8=b^2

b=2\sqrt{2}\ units

therefore

The lengths of the sides of the square base are  2\sqrt{2}\ units

Answer:

<u>The standard deviation of the uniform distribution is:</u>

  • σ=(b−a)/√12

<u>U(3, 12)</u>

  • σ = (12−3)/√12 = 9/√12 = 2.5981

<u>U(80, 250)</u>

  • σ = (250−80)/√12 = 170/√12 = 49.0748

<u>U(4, 93)</u>

  • σ = (93−4)/√12 = 89/√12 = 25.6921

Write and solve an equation for the total number of possible combinations from flipping a coin 10 times.
vladimir2022 [97]

Step-by-step explanation:

every flip has 2 possible outcomes.

1 flip has 2.

2 flips have 2×2 = 2² = 4

3 flips have 2×2×2 = 2³ = 8

and so on.

the number of possible combinations flipping a coin n times is

C(n) = 2^n

for 10 flips

C(10) = 2¹⁰ = 1024

possible outcomes or combinations.

What’s the correct answer for this question?
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

12.22

Step-by-step explanation:

To find HI, you have to use tangent. tanx=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

tan(42°)=\frac{11}{HI} , then you multiply HI to both sides of equation and divide tan(42).

To get <em>HI</em>=\frac{11}{tan(42)}

Which makes HI equal 12.2167
