A Cube, has all equal sides, namely, the length, width and height
are all equal to each other

so..  notice the picture added here
you have really, 6 squares, stacked up to each other at the edges

so...what is the Area of one of those squares?
well, if the sides are equal, let's say the side is "x" long, then
the Area is x\cdot x \implies x^2

well, you have 6 of those squares, thus \bf \textit{surface area of a cube}=
\begin{cases}
(x\cdot x)+\\
(x\cdot x)+\\
(x\cdot x)+\\
(x\cdot x)+\\
(x\cdot x)+\\
(x\cdot x)\\
 --------------\\
 x^2+x^2+x^2+x^2+x^2\\
6x^2
\end{cases}
\\\\
\textit{we know the Area is }486\ cm^2\qquad thus
\\\\
\textit{surface area}=6x^2\implies 486=6x^2

solve for "x", to get one side's length

Triangle ABC has a perimeter 22cm AB = 8cm BC =8cm By calculation, deduce whether triangle ABC is a right angle triangle. NEED A
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

No ABC is not a triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 22 cm

AB = 8 cm ; BC = 8 cm

AC = 22 - ( 8 + 8 ) = 6 cm

But all those sides doesn't follow Pythagorean Theorem(AB^2 + BC^2 = AC^2) ....because 8^2 + 8^2 isn't equal to 6^2 ......

Had it followed the theorem , it could have been a right angle triangle...

4p – 3 = 13<br><br><br><br> answer pls
Galina-37 [17]
P = 4

13 + 3 = 16
16/4 = 4

These questions require reverse order, you have to work backwards
For example 4 * P you would do 4/P instead
