Answer:

50.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve.  Put the smaller triangle side over the larger triangle side.

x               46.2-14   (This is the length of the short side of the triangle)

--------- = -------------

72.6            46.2

Using cross products

46.2 *x = (46.2-14)  *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2)  *72.6

46.2 *x = (32.2)  *72.6

46.2x =2337.72

Divide each side by 46.2

46.2/46.2 *x = 2337.72/46.2

x = 50.6

Three cube shaped boxes are stacked one above the other the volumes of two of the boxes are 1331 m³ each and the volume of the t
Pepsi [2]
So to find out the answer, you need to find out the dimensions of each cube. So for the 1331, it's 11 x 11 x 11. So you know that would be 11 meters high. Now the next cube. Then there's another 1331, so that would be another 11 meters high. Then 729, also 9 x 9 x 9, so that's going to be 9 meters high. Then add all the cube square roots. 11 + 11 + 9 = 31. So the height of the stacked boxes will be 31 meters.

Given a soda can with a volume of 21 and a diameter of 6, what is the volume of a cone that fits perfectly inside the soda can?
lutik1710 [3]
If the soda can is a cylinder, which is most likely, than that means we need to find the height of the cone. The formula for volume of a cylinder is V= пr^2h (look at the pic for clearer formula) and we know the diameter of the soda can is 6, we know the radius is 3 because diameter is a line reaching from one point of the circle to the other. Radius is a line reaching from the center of the circle to the outside as shown in the image. We divide pi (you can put in the calculator 3.14) from 21, then we get 6.688 (if we round up) and then you must look at the formula now

it looks like
6.688=r^2h

that means we must find 3^2
that basically means 3x3 which is 9

then you have to divide that from 6.688

then you get 0.743

that is your height.

now we must find the volume of the cone. The formula for that is

V=пr^2(h/3)

now lets plug in our info

V=(3.14)(9)(0.743/3)

you get 6.999
