Let h = height of triangle


h^2 + 12^2 = 15^2


h^2 + 144 = 225


h^2 = 225 - 144



h^2 = 81


sqrt{h^2} = sqrt{81}


h = 9 cm


For part B, we need to find surface area because it represents the perimeter of this 3-D figure. The formula needed is SA = B + LA.


1. First find the lateral area.


LA = perimeter of triangle • height


LA = ph


p = 15 + 15 + 24


p = 30 + 24


p = 54 cm


LA = (54)(9)


LA = 486 cm^2


2. We now find the base of each triangle. This is found by finding the area of each triangle and multiplying by 2.


A = (1/2)bh


A = (1/2)(24)(9)


A = 108 cm^2


A = 2•108 cm^2


A = 216 cm^2 = our B in the surface area formula.


SA = B + LA


SA = 216 cm^2 + 486 cm^2


SA = 702 cm^2


The amount of cardboard needed is 702 cm^2.

Prove that C(50,3) + C(50,4) = C(51,4)
valkas [14]

By definition of the binomial coefficient,

C(n,k) = \dfrac{n!}{k!(n-k)!}

so we have

C(50,3) + C(50,4) = \dfrac{50!}{3!47!} + \dfrac{50!}{4!46!} \\\\ = \dfrac{50!}{3!46!} \left(\dfrac1{47} + \dfrac14\right) \\\\ = \dfrac{50!}{3!46!} \times \dfrac{51}{188} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{3!46!} \times \dfrac1{4\times47} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{4!47!} \\\\ = \dfrac{51!}{4!(51-4)!} = C(51,4)

as required.
