1. square base area= 25 inches

2. using the slanted 6.5
=1/2base , therefore 5/2=2.5 inches

3. then use pythagoras.... c=6.5, a=2.5
c^2=a^2 + b^2
(do this urself)

4. when u find what b is... that's the height of one of the triangle
base= 2.5 (look at step 2 if u don't understand this bit)
height=b (refer to step 3)

5. then work out the area of 1 triangle using that...
6. then have (the answer u work out in step 5 ) multiply 4
this will give u the area for the all of the 4 triangles...

7. Then add together the square based area in step 1..(25)
to the 4 triangular, area faces (i.e from step 6) - the total will be ur answer for the amount of cardboard!!

p.s don't forget the units!!!

The thickness of a block is approximately 2 centimeters. How many blocks are in a stack that is 1,000 millimeters high? ( 1 cm =
Andru [333]

Answer:

50 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, you need to label you're proportions, which can be mm/blocks.

Then, for 1 block, it is 20 mm because the block is 2 cm, which is equal to 20 mm. So for you're proportion, it is 20 mm/1 block.

Finally, you need to find the total amount of blocks that equals 1000 mm. So you can multiply the 20 mm by 50 to get the 1000 mm. What you do at the top, you do at the bottom, so you also have to do 1 block by 50 to get 50 blocks

So for you're final answer/proportion, it is mm/blocks = 20/1 = 1000/50 and you're final answer is 50 blocks

Hope this helps : )
