Answer:

m∠AMO ≈ 54.7°

AΔANM = 486√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The edges are congruent, so all four faces are congruent equilateral triangles. We'll say the length of each edge is 2r.

The height of the pyramid h is given to be 36.

The perpendicular distance from O to line MP is called the apothem (a). Using 30-60-90 triangles, b = 2a and r = a√3.

Use cosine to find m∠AMO.

cos(∠AMO) = b / (2r)

cos(∠AMO) = (2a) / (2a√3)

cos(∠AMO) = 1 / √3

m∠AMO ≈ 54.7°

Use Pythagorean theorem to find the apothem.

(2r)² = b² + h²

(2a√3)² = (2a)² + 36²

12a² = 4a² + 1296

8a² = 1296

a² = 162

a = 9√2

So the edge length is:

2r = 2√3 (9√2)

2r = 18√6

The area of the equilateral triangle ΔANM is half the apothem times the perimeter:

A = ½aP

A = ½ (9√2) (3 × 18√6)

A = 243√12

A = 486√3

Determine the measure of each segment then indicate whether the statements are true or false

kupik [55]

Answer:

$d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}$

$d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}$

$d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}$

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the graph

Given the vertices of the segment AB

A(-4, 4)

B(2, 5)

Finding the length of AB using the formula

$d_{AB}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-4\right)\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\left(2+4\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{6^2+1}$

$=\sqrt{36+1}$

$=\sqrt{37}$

$d_{AB}\:=\sqrt{37}$

$d_{AB}=6.08$ units

Given the vertices of the segment JK

J(2, 2)

K(7, 2)

From the graph, it is clear that the length of JK = 5 units

$d_{JK}=5$ units

Given the vertices of the segment GH

G(-5, -2)

H(-2, -2)

Finding the length of GH using the formula

$d_{GH}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\left(-2-\left(-5\right)\right)^2+\left(-2-\left(-2\right)\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{\left(5-2\right)^2+\left(2-2\right)^2}$

$=\sqrt{3^2+0}$

$=\sqrt{3^2}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule\:}\sqrt[n]{a^n}=a,\:\quad \mathrm{\:assuming\:}a\ge 0$

$d_{GH}\:=\:3$ units

Thus, from the calculations, it is clear that:

$d_{AB}=6.08$

$d_{JK}=5$

$d_{GH}\:=\:3$

Thus,

$d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}$

$d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}$

$d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}$

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false
