Answer:

  it depends on what he means

Step-by-step explanation:

The friend needs to clarify the meaning of "if three lines intersect each other." If Line A intersects lines B and C, there will be two points of intersection, one at line B and one at line C.

If those lines are all in the same plane, and B and C are not parallel, so that line B intersects line C, then there will be a total of three points of intersection.

If the point of intersection of B and C is also the point where line A intersects them, then there will be only one point of intersection.

__

So, if the meaning is "if there are three non-parallel lines in the same plane, and each intersects the other two", then the Line Intersection Postulate guarantees there will be 1 or 3 points of intersection.

If the meaning is "if there are three lines not necessarily in the same plane, and one intersects the other two (but those two don't intersect each other)", then there may be 1 or 2 points of intersection (allowing that all lines may intersect at the same point).

What is the surface area of this figure?
disa [49]

Answer:

72 sq. mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Breaking this down, we have 2 right triangles with sides of 3, 4, and 5 miles, and 3 rectangles with dimensions 3 x 5, 4 x 5, and 5 x 5 miles. Remember that the area of a triangle is 1/2 x b x h , where b and h are the triangle's base and height. The base and height of the triangles at the bases of the figure are 3 and 4, so each triangle has an area of 1/2 x 3 x 4 = 1/2 x 12 = 6 sq. mi, or 6 + 6 = 12 sq. mi together.

Onto the rectangles, we can find their area by multiplying their length by their width. Since the width of these rectangles is the same for all three - 5 mi - we can make our lives a little easier and just "glue" the lengths together, giving us a longer rectangle with a length of 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 mi. Multiplying the two, we find the area of the rectangles to be 5 x 12 = 60 sq. mi.

Adding this area to the triangle's area gives us a total area of 12 + 60 = 72 sq. mi.

eduard

Answer:

809.4cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Systematic error = 3.8cm (The measured length is always more than the actual length.)

Most probable dimension :

Width = 85.7 cm

Length = 123.5 cm

Hence most probable area of Rectangle :

Area = Length × Width

Area = 85.7cm × 123.5cm = 10583.95 cm²

Dimension due to Systematic error :

Length = (85.7cm + 3.8cm) = 89.5cm

Width = (123.5cm + 3.8cm) = 127.3cm

Area = Length × width

Area = ( 89.5cm × 127.3) = 11393.35cm²

Systematic error of the area :

value of area with Systematic error - Probable value of area :

11393.35cm² - 10583.95 cm² = 809.4cm²
