Answer:

V = 120.6796

LA = 110.8513

SA = 174.8513

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me know if you need more of an explanation for any of these

First we need the height, one way to find that out is to use the diagonal of the  and one of the diagonal edges of the pyramid.  Specifically we will need half of the diagonal of the square.  We will call the diagonal of the square d.

8^2+8^2=d^2\\d=\sqrt{64+64} \\d=\sqrt{128}

Gonna leave it like that for ease of writing.  So then half of the diagonal is \frac{\sqrt{128}}{2}

The height, h, will be (\frac{d}{2})^2+h^2 = 8^2.  Plugging everything in gets us h=\sqrt{32}

last, we need to find slant height, which we will call s.

(\frac{8}{2})^2+h^2 = s^2\\s=\sqrt{48}

s is also the height of the triangles for purposes of finding area.  Now for the volume and areas.

Volume is area of the base times height divided by 3, so V=8^2\frac{\sqrt{32} }{3}  = \frac{64\sqrt{48} }{3} = 120.6796

Lateral area is the sum of the four areas of the triangles, and each of those are \frac{8*h}{2} so the whole lateral area is 4 times that.  So we get 4\frac{8\sqrt{32} }{2} =110.8513

Total surface area is the lateral surface area + the area of the base, so 110.8513 + 64 = 174.8513

“Write a linear equation that is perpendicular to 2x-5y=5 and passes through the point (2,-9).
k0ka [10]
Okay so you are correct with the gradient of the perpendicular line it is -5/2 however the equation is not y= -5/2 -1 because it is a new Line and has a new y-intercept therefore its Y=-5/2 + C but you have corrected that when doing the formula and have got the right answer

Which equation does the graph below represent? <br>y = 1/4x <br>y= 4x <br>y= -1/4x<br>y= -4x​
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

y = -4x

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx+c

gradient, m

= (4-0)/(-1-0)

= -4

y-intercept, c

= 0

y = -4x+0

y = -4x
