Well to solve this, lets plug in some numbers. Lets assume that for now, the starting number is 2. If it increases by 100%, bringing it up to 4, then decreases 100%, it is brought down to zero. Now one thing to note is that any number decrease by 100% is automatically zero. Watch, we start with two, it is then increased by 150%, bringing it up to 5, then decreased by 100%, bringing it back down to zero. In conclusion, 100% cannot be specified as a value, but rather a relation. 100% represents the entire number, meaning that if you are decreasing a number by 100%, you are basically subtracting the number by itself!

What is the shape of the cross-section formed when a plane containing line AC and line EH intersects this cube? What is the area
velikii [3]

Answer:

Cross section is a rectangle.

Area of cross section = 16 sqrt(2) = 22.63 sq. units (to 2 decimals)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cube.

top face ABCD is parallel and congruent to bottom face EFGH  ........(1)

justified by the properties of cubes

Sides AE and CH are perpendicular to faces ABCD and EFGH ..........(2)

justified by the properties of cubes

Diagonals AC and EH are congruent ......................(3)

justified by (1), congruent top and bottom faces  

Consider cross-section ACHE

AC is congruent and parallel to  EH   (1) & (3)

EA & HC are perpendicular to AC      (2)

Therefore the quadrilateral ACHE is a rectangle.

Length of diagonal AC = sqrt(4^2+4^2) = 4 sqrt(2)  ..........pythagoras theorem

AE = CH = DG = 4      properties of cube, all sides equal

Area of ACHE = 4* 4sqrt(2) = 16 sqrt(2) = 22.63 sq. units

Round 71.491 to the place of the underlined digit which is the 4
TiliK225 [7]
When rounding the 4 you look to the right of the number, which is the 4, and if the number is higher than 5 you would change the 4 to 5. 
Therefore: 71.5
