Answer:
<u><em>Dimension of box:-</em></u>
Side of square base = 10 in
Height of box = 5 in
Minimum Surface area, S = 300 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
An open box with a square base is to have a volume of 500 cubic inches.
Let side of the base be x and height of the box is y
Volume of box = area of base × height
Therefore,
It is open box. The surface area of box, S .
Put
This would be rational function of surface area.
For maximum/minimum to differentiate S(x)
For critical point, S'(x)=0
Put x = 10 into
y = 5
Double derivative of S(x)
at x = 10
Therefore, Surface is minimum at x = 10 inches
Minimum Surface area, S = 300 in²
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a right triangle trig problem. The base of the right triangle is the distance that Donna if from the flagpole; the flagpole is the side opposite the reference angle which was given as 26, and we are looking for the height of the flagpole, h. The trig ratio that uses the side opposite over the side adjacent is the tangent ratio, specifically:
and
123tan(26) = h so
h = 60.0 rounded to the nearest tenth. But that is only the height from her line of vision and up, not the whole height. In order to find the whole height, we have to add in her height up to her line of vision which is 5.3 feet. Therefore, the height of the flagpole is
60.0 + 5.3 = 65.3 feet.
