4 0

That triangle has a horizontal base with y=2. The length of that base is RS=1-(-4)=1+4=5. The height of the triangle is the vertical distance from line y=2 to T(-5,-4). That height is 2-(-4)=2+4=6. The area of the triangle is base * height/2 = 5*6/2= 15

The answer is 15 units ^2

The answer would be A because if the player starts on the 20 yard line and gains 9 yards, that would be 20+9= 29. Then it says the player loses 4 yards which would make it 29-4= 25 then it says the referee takes the penalty away which then makes it 29 again. If you do the math for A it comes out to be 29.

Find the surface area of a cylinder with a base diameter of 8ft and a height of 6ft. Write your answer in terms of pi, and be su

Ksju [112]

Given that diameter of the base of the cylinder = 8 ft

Given that height of the cylinder = 6 ft

We have to find the surface area of the cylinder in terms of pi.

So we need to use formula of surface area of the cylinder which is

$Area= 2\pi r(r+h)$
