Answer:

We can find the surface area of any pyramid by adding up the areas of its lateral faces and its base.

Surface area of any pyramid = area of base + area of each of the lateral faces

Example:A=lw+l(w2)2+h2+w(l2)2+h2=3·2+3·(2

2)2+82+2·(3

2)2+82≈46.46559

Given: Isosceles TriangleDEF. The measure of vertex Angle D is four times the measure of each base angle E and F.

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

D = 120° , E = 30° , F = 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let D = 4x

Let E&F = x

4x + x + × = 180°[angles in triangle is 180°]

6x = 180°

x = 180/6

x = 30°

E = 30°

F =30°

D =4(30°)

=120°

8x - 11 = -2x + 15 -5. What steps would you take to solve this?

MAVERICK [17]

Combine like terms. So that means combine the X's and combine the regular numbers.

- add 2x to 8x
- combine +15 -5
- then add 11 to that
- once you're done, find X by dividing 10x by whatever you have after the = sign

What is the directrix of the parabola defined by `(1)/(4)(y + 3) = (x − 2)^2`?

Sauron [17]

The directrix of the parabola is $y = \frac {-49}{16}$

<h3>How to determine the equation of the directrix?</h3>

The parabola equation is given as:

$\frac 14(y + 3) = (x -2)^2$

A parabola is represented as:

$4p(y - k) =(x -h)^2$

By comparing both equations, we have:

4p = 1/4 ==> p = 1/16

-k= 3 ==> k = -3

The directrix is represented as:

y = k - p

So, we have:

$y = -3 - \frac 1{16}$

Take the LCM

$y = \frac {-16 * 3- 1}{16}$

Evaluate

$y = \frac {-49}{16}$

Hence, the directrix of the parabola is $y = \frac {-49}{16}$
