that is the answer
Because ABCD is a rectangle, the length of CD is 12 cm.
We need to determine the length of DE. If we can do that, then the sum of the lengths of CD and DE represents the unknown: the length of CE.
To find the length of CE, we have to "solve" the upper triangle.
Here's an outline of what to do:
1. Show that BC=AD and find the length.
2. Note that angle CAD is 60 degrees. Why?
3. Note that angle EAD is 30 degrees. Why?
4. Find the length of ED
5. Add ED and DC, that is, ED + 12 cm. This is your answer.
Please ask questions if need be.
SA= Lateral Area + Area (of base)
Lateral area = perimeter of base x height
An isosceles triangle has two congruent base segments. The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is (length of base segment) x (the square root of 2). I did the math for you (shown above) to get 5 as a base.
So 5 + 5 + square root of 50 is your perimeter
Multiply the perimeter times your height (8) and you get the lateral area.
Add your lateral area to the base area (triangle = 1/2 bh)
LA = 136.568...
Area of Triangle base = 12.5
Surface area = 149.068... square cm
Answer:
I would say that the flag pole is about 120 feet long. Recall that this is an estimation.
