Answer:
Let P be the external point. O be the origin. join O and P get OP and nearest point on the circle from P be A.
Let Q be the point onthe circle in which, tangent make 90° with radius at Q.
PQ = 8 and OQ = 6
we get a right angled triangle PQO right angled at Q.
so, OP^2 = OQ^2 + PQ^2= 8^2 + 6^2 = 64 + 36 =1==
therefore OP =10cm
we need nearest point from P, which is PA
PA = OP - OA= 10 -6=4cm
Area of the base = 1/2 * 10 * 5sqrt3 = 25 sqrt3
Total surface area = 25 sqrt3 + 3 * 1/2 * 10 * slant height = 214.5
25 sqrt3 + 15h = 214.5
15h = 214.5 - 25 sqrt3
h = (214.5 - 25sqrt3() / 15
= 11.41 cm to nearest hundredth
Since the scale factor is smaller than one (the original), the resulting image is smaller than the original.
Hope this helped, and feel free to ask more questions if needed(:
Hello there! x = 66.
x/6 + 4 = 15
This means that since 15 - 4 = 11, x/6 = 11.
Given the two numbers and a variable, we can multiply:
6 x 11 = 66
66/6 = 11
Therefore, x = 66
Hope this helps!
