A = 11 and b = 8 I’m pretty sure brosky
*looks at question for a while* .....
OH !
If you lived in Great Britain and you wanted to buy one Euro it would cost LESS THAN A POUND .
Using a calculator or a pencil, find each square root, including
three (3) decimal places. A negative number has no real square
roots, so skip '-71' and '-19'.
For each square root . . .
-- If the digits in the 2nd and 3rd decimal place are 00 through 24, then
make the 2nd decimal place a '0' and discard the rest.
-- If the digits in the 2nd and 3rd decimal place are 25 through 74, then
make the 2nd decimal place a '5' and discard the rest.
-- If the digits in the 2nd and 3rd decimal place are 75 through 99, then
increase the 1st decimal place by 1, make the 2nd decimal place a '0',
and discard the rest.
Answer:
27.5 mm
Step-by-step explanation:
The game piece has the shape of two identical square pyramids attached at their bases. Given that the perimeters of the square bases are 80 millimeters, and the slant height of each pyramid is 17 millimeters.
Let the side length of each of the side of the base of the pyramid be b, hence:
perimeter = 4b
80 = 4b
b = 20 mm. half of the side length = b/2 = 20 / 2 = 10 mm
The slant height (l) = 17 mm, Let h be the height of one of the pyramid, hence, using Pythagoras theorem:
(b/2)² + h² = l²
17² = 10² + h²
h² = 17² - 10² = 189
h = √189
h = 13.75 mm
The length of the game piece = 2 * h = 2 * 13.75 = 27.5 mm.
