The right answer for the question that is being asked and shown above is that: "D. a rectangle with a length of 20 units and a width of 11 units." This is the statement that <span>best describes the resulting cross-section of the prism</span>
These calculations are based on the drawing of the file enclosed.
There are three right triangles.
From the big right triangle:
a^2 + b^2 = 25^2
From the small right triangle on the left side:
(25-x)^2 + 10^2 = a^2
From the small right triangle on the right side
x^2 +10^2 = b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = a^2 + b^2
=> (25-x)^2 + 10^2 + x^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> 25^2 - 50x + x^2 + 10^2 + 10^2 = 25^2
=> x^2 -50x + 100 =0
Use the quadratic formular to find the roots:
x = 2.1 and x = 47.9
Distance from back: 25 - 2.1 = 22.9 ft
Answer: 22.9 ft
2. WXZ=YXZ
3. Reflexive property of equality
(if they are angles)-
4. WXZ=YXZ ~~Reason- Congruent angles have equal number of degrees
(if they are triangles-more likely judging by the problem)-
4. Triangle WXZ=YXZ ~ Reason- SAS Congruence Postulate
Answer:
B) 2
C) y = 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
Part B
Constant is 2 because in order to get x to the value of y, you must multiply by 2.
Part C
y = 2x
