<h3>Answer: C) x = 13</h3>

====================================================

Work Shown:

We have a right triangle with legs a = 5 and b = 12. The hypotenuse is c = x which is unknown for now.

Use the pythagorean theorem to find x.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

5^2 + 12^2 = x^2

25 + 144 = x^2

169 = x^2

x^2 = 169

x = sqrt(169) .... apply the square root to both sides

x = 13

Answer:

24 Cats.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up an inequality of 21/18 and 28/x.

Multiply 18 and 28, you get 504. Divide 504 by 21 and you get your answer of 24.

Among all right circular cones with a slant height of 24, what are the dimensions (radius and height) that maximize the volum

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

5571.99

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the Pythagorean theorem to solve the problem.

The theorem indicates that,

$r^2+h^2=24^2 \\r^2+h^2=576\\r^2=576-h^2$

Once this is defined, we proceed to define the volume of a cone,

$v=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

Substituting,

$v=\frac{1}{3} \pi (576-h^2)h\\v=\frac{1}{3} \pi (576h-h^3)$

We need to find the maximum height, so we proceed to calculate h, by means of its derivative and equalizing 0,

$\frac{dv}{dh} = \frac{1}{3} \pi (576-3h^2)$

$\frac{dv}{dh} = 0$ then $\rightarrow \frac{1}{3}\pi(576-3h^2)=0$

$h_1=-8\sqrt{3}\\h_2=8\sqrt{3}$

<em>We select the positiv value.</em>

We have then,

$r^2 = 576-(8\sqrt3)^2 = 384\\r=\sqrt{384}$

We can now calculate the maximum volume,

$V_{max}= \frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h = \frac{1}{3}\pi (\sqrt{384})^2 (8\sqrt{3}) = 5571.99$

URGENT TEST I HAVE!!!!

Lerok [7]

Answer:

I think they are asking the area of the triangle so we are going with that.

Step-by-step explanation:

Easiest way to do this is find the area of the incomplete square, and then cut that in half for the triangle.

so it is 4 cm wide

and 8 cm tall

length x width = area

8 x 4 = 32

32/2 = 16

So your answer should be 16 cm
