Answer:

a. 26 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

When triangles are similar their sides are proportional

4/8 = h/(44+8)

1/2(52) = h

h = 26

two right triangles are similar if an acute angle of one triangle is congruent to an acute angle of the other triangle. a. true

MArishka [77]

Answer: True

One angle of a right triangle = 90°
Let x = the acute angle of one angle.
Let y = the angle of the other angle.

Because the sum of angles in a triangle is 180°,
x + y + 90 = 180
x + y = 90
y = 90 - x

Therefore the angles for each of the two triangles are
x, 90° - x, 90°.

The two triangles are therefore similar because of AAA (Angle, Angle, Angle).

let's recall that a cube is just a rectangular prism with all equal sides, check picture below.

$\bf \textit{volume of a cube}\\\\ V=s^3~~ \begin{cases} s=&length~of\\ &a~side\\ \cline{1-2} V=&27000 \end{cases}\implies 27000=s^3\implies \sqrt[3]{27000}=s\implies 30=s \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \textit{surface area of a cube}\\\\ SA=6s~~\begin{cases} s=&length~of\\ &a~side\\ \cline{1-2} s=&30 \end{cases}\implies SA=6(30)\implies SA=180$
