A regular hexagonal prism has an edge length 12 cm, and height 10 cm. Identify the volume of the prism to the nearest tenth.

Alexeev081 [22]

Check the picture below.

so the volume will simply be the area of the hexagonal face times the height.

$\textit{area of a regular polygon}\\\\ A=\cfrac{1}{4}ns^2\stackrel{\qquad degrees}{\cot\left( \frac{180}{n} \right)}~~ \begin{cases} n=\stackrel{number~of}{sides}\\ s=\stackrel{length~of}{side}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ n=6\\ s=12 \end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{1}{4}(6)(12)^2\cot\left( \frac{180}{6} \right) \\\\\\ A=216\cot(30^o)\implies A=216\sqrt{3} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{area of the hexagon}}{(216\sqrt{3})}~~\stackrel{height}{(10)}\implies 2160\sqrt{3}~~\approx ~~3741.2~cm^3$

Almost all medical schools in the United States require students to take the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT). To estimate

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Probability of having student's score between 505 and 515 is 0.36

Given that z-scores are rounded to two decimals using Standard Normal Distribution Table

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know from normal distribution: z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD

where x = targeted value; Mu = Mean of Normal Distribution; SD = Standard Deviation of Normal Distribution

Therefore using given data: Mu (Mean) = 510, SD = 10.4 we have z(x) by using z(x) = (x - Mu)/SD as under:

In our case, we have x = 505 & 515

Approach 1 using Standard Normal Distribution Table:

z for x=505: z(505) = (505-510)/10.4 gives us z(505) = -0.48

z for x=515: z(515) = (515-510)/10.4 gives us z(515) = 0.48

Afterwards using Normal Distribution Tables and rounding the values to two decimals we find the probabilities as under:

P(505) using z(505) = 0.32

Similarly we have:

P(515) using z(515) = 0.68

Now we may find the probability of student's score between 505 and 515 using:

P(505 < x < 515) = P(515)-P(505) = 0.68 - 0.32 = 0.36

PS: The standard normal distribution table is being attached for reference.

Approach 2 using Excel or Google Sheets:

P(x) = norm.dist(x,Mean,SD,Commutative)

P(505) = norm.dist(505,510,10.4,1)

P(515) = norm.dist(515,510,10.4,1)

Probability of student's score between 505 and 515= P(515) - P(505) = 0.36

Which of the following theorems verifies that ABC~WXY?

Bumek [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. AA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two triangle:

$\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle WXY$ .

The dimensions given in $\triangle ABC$ are:

$\angle A = 27^\circ\\\angle B = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle A+\angle B+\angle C = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 27+90+\angle C=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle C = 63^\circ$

The dimensions given in $\triangle WXY$ are:

$\angle Y = 63^\circ\\\angle X = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle W+\angle X+\angle Y = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W+90+63=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W = 27^\circ$

Now, if we compare the angles of the two triangles:

$\angle A = \angle W = 27^\circ\\\angle B = \angle X= 90^\circ\\\angle C = \angle Y= 63^\circ$

So, by AA postulate (i.e. Angle - Angle) postulate, the two triangles are similar.

$\triangle ABC \sim \triangle WXY$ by AA theorem.

So, correct answer is option B. AA
