Two similar cones have radii in the ratio n:m. What is the ratio of their slant heights?

Answer:

The ratio of the slant heights of the two cones will also be n : m.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached diagram.

If we take the vertical sections along any diameter of the base circle of the cones A and B then the triangular sections as we get will be similar.

Now, ratio of the base of the triangles A and B i.e. the ratio of the diameters of the cones A and B will be 2n : 2m = n : m and this will be the same as the ratios of other two sides of the triangles A and B.

Therefore, the ratio of the slant heights of the two cones will also be n : m. (Answer)

dybincka [34]

Answer:

x=1.818minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

3/60 miles per minute for walk

8/60 miles per minute for run

0.05x + 0.1333y=1

x+y=10

x=y-10

0.05(y-10) + 0.133333y = 1

0.05y-0.5+0.133333y=1

0.18333y=1.5

y=8.18minutes

x=10-8.18

x=1.818minutes

Find the midpoint of the line segment joining the two points.<br> (1.8, -3.4) and (-0.4, 1.4)
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

(0.7, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the coordinates for the midpoint you add each coordinate together and divide by 2.

M = (\frac{1.8 - 0.4}{2},  \frac{-3.4 + 1.4}{2})

M = (\frac{1.4}{2}, \frac{-2}{2})

M = (0.7, -1)

Mr. Littles is building a triangular sandbox using three boards. He already has two boards that measure 9 feet and 12 feet. Sele
Bess [88]

Answer:

  • 9 feet, 15 feet, 19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em> Options are: </em></u>

  • <em>2 feet </em>
  • <em>3 feet </em>
  • <em>9 feet </em>
  • <em>15 feet </em>
  • <em>19 feet </em>
  • <em>21 feet </em>
  • <em>30 feet</em>

<em>-------------------------------------</em>

Use the triangle inequality theorem: sum of any two side must be greater than the third side by length

  • 2 feet     ⇒  no, as 2 + 9 < 12
  • 3 feet     ⇒  no, as 3 + 9 = 12
  • 9 feet     ⇒  yes
  • 15 feet    ⇒  yes
  • 19 feet    ⇒  yes
  • 21 feet    ⇒  no, as 9 + 12 = 21
  • 30 feet  ⇒  no, as 9 + 12 < 30
