Answer:  The answer is (B). An isosceles triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:  In the given figure, a cone and its axis of rotation is shown. We are to select the type of cross-section that will be formed if the plane passes through the axis of rotation.

See the attached figure, if a plane passes through the axis of rotation of the cone, then the resultant cross-section will be a triangle with one vertex as the vertex of the cone, i.e., A. And also, the two sides of the triangle through the vertex A will be equal.

The cross-section is also shown in the attached figure and it will be an isosceles triangle ABC, where AB = AC.

Thus, the correct option is  (B) an isosceles triangle.

Hana is playing a virtual reality game in which she must toss a disc to land on the largest triangular section of the board. If
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

Her probability of success is 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to calculate the area of the entire board

That would be the rectangle of the measure 50 cm by 40 cm

We have the area as the product of this two

That would be 50 * 40 = 2,000 cm^2

Now, the value calculated is the area of the entire possible landing area

Secondly, we need to get the area that counts as a success

that would be the area of the triangle that has a base of 50 cm and a height of 40 cm

The area of this is the product of the two divided by 2

we have this as ;

50 * 40 * 1/2 = 1,000 cm^2

So, her probability of success is simply the area of the triangle divided by the area of the rectangle

= 1000/2000 = 1/2

A family has an annual income of ​$30,600 Of​ this, 1/4 is spent for​ food, 1/5 for​ housing, 1/10 for​ clothing, 1/9 for​ savin
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

$6,120

Step-by-step explanation:

1/5 (one-fifth) of the family's annual income ($30,600) is spent on housing- as the word problem states.

You have to find 1/5 (one-fifth) of* $30,600.

Write it out as an equation.

\frac{1}{5}  \times 30600

*The <em>of</em><em> </em>in the word equation (1/5 of 30600) simply means multiplication.
