Option 1 and option 4 are inversely proportional.

Inversely proportional means when one variable increases the other decreases in proportion.

Option 1 is true. When the number of tractors increases, the time to plow a farm decreases.

Option 4 is also true. If height is too large, base area should be too less to equalize the area.

Answer:

Unit Cube - Definition with Examples. A unit cube, sometimes called a cube of side 1, is a cube whose sides are 1 unit long. The volume of a 3-dimensional unit cube is 1 cubic unit, and its total surface area is 6 square units.

Answer:

Yes, the shapes are similar. Note, the angles are equivalent and the sides are scales of each other satisfying the requirements for similarly.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a shape to be similar there are two conditions that must be met. (1) Must have equivalent angles (2) Sides must be related by a scalar.

In the two triangles presented, the first condition is met since each triangle has three angles, 90-53-37.

To test if the sides are scalar, each side must be related to a corresponding side of the other triangle with the same scalar.

9/6 = 3/2

12/8 = 3/2

15/10 = 3/2

Alternatively:

6/9 = 2/3

8/12 = 2/3

10/15 = 2/3

Since the relationship of the sides is the scalar 3/2 (Alternatively 2/3), then we can say the triangles meet the second condition.

Given that both conditions are satisfied, then we can say these triangles are similar.

Note, this is a "special case" right triangle commonly referred to as a 3-4-5 right triangle.

Cheers.

Answer:

SA = 1244.64 square centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached figure

The formula of the surface area of the prism is SA = 2B + PH, where

B is the area of its base
P is the perimeter of its base
H is the distance between its bases

The base of the prism is a regular hexagon with side 8 cm

If you join each vertex of the hexagon with its center you will form 6 congruent triangles with base 8 cm and height 6.93 cm

The area of the hexagon = 6 × area of a triangle

∵ The base of the triangle = 8 cm

∵ Its height = 6.93 cm

- The formula of the area of a triangle is A = $\frac{1}{2}$ × base × height

∴ Area of the triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 8 × 6.93 = 27.72 cm²

- Lets find the area of the hexagon

∴ The area of the hexagon = 6 × 27 .72 = 166.32 cm²

∴ B = 166.32 cm²

The formula of the perimeter of the regular hexagon is P = 6 × s, where s is the length of its side

∵ The side of the hexagon is 8 cm

∴ P = 6 × 8

∴ P = 48 cm

∵ The distance between the two bases is 19 cm

∴ H = 19 cm

Substitute the values of B, P and H in the formula of the surface area above

∵ SA = 2(166.32) + (48)(19)

∴ SA = 332.64 + 912

∴ SA = 1244.64 square centimeters
