Answer:  Option 'A' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Lateral surface area of smaller pyramid = 20 ft²

Lateral surface area of larger pyramid = 45 ft²

volume of smaller pyramid  = 8 ft³

We need to find the volume of larger pyramid.

\dfrac{\text{Lateral area of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Lateral area of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{20}{45}=\dfrac{4}{9}\\\\\dfrac{4}{9}=\dfrac{2^2}{3^3}\\\\\dfrac{\text{side of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Side of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\So,\\\\\dfrac{\text{Volume of smaller pyramid}}{\text{Volume of larger pyramid}}=\dfrac{2^3}{3^3}=\dfrac{8}{27}

Hence, Volume of larger pyramid is 27 ft³.

Therefore, Option 'A' is correct.

Let the ratio between 2 of them be a/b. The volume of the larger one is x (ft^3) 
<span>(a/b)^2 = 20/45 = 4/9 ---> a/b = 2/3 </span>
<span>(a/b)^3 = 8/x </span>
<span>8/x = (2/3)^3 = 8/27 ---> x = 27 (ft^3) </span>

Find m/EGD. (measurement in degrees)
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\bf\:30^{\circ}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find m ∠EGD.

From the given figure, we can see that, ∠BGA & ∠EGD are vertically opposite angles (opposite angles that share the same vertex ⟶ G).

Also, vertically opposite angles are equal to each other.

Given,  ∠BGA = 30°

So,  ∠EGD =  ∠BGA = 30°.
