For a project, Gabrielle made a model of an Egyptian pyramid. The square base has a side length measuring 10 inches. The pyramid

is 12 inches tall.
What is the surface area of the model?

The surface area of the model is 360 inches<span>².
</span>
By identifying that you're working with a square pyramid, you can interpret that the square base has 4 equal sides. Since the question only provides you with the side length of the square base and the height of the pyramid, you would need to find the slant height of the triangles in order to find the surface area. Since the pyramid is square, the height (line from the top vertex of the pyramid to the center of the square) should be perpendicular to the square. You can interpret that to be a right triangle with in the pyramid. Since the height line is in the center of the square, you would need to take the side length of the square base and divide it in half in order to get a side component for the Pythagoras theorem needed to find the slant height. (10/2 = 5). With that, you plug the components (pyramid height and side length/2) into the Pythagoras theorem (a<span>² + b</span><span>² = c</span><span>²).
</span>
12² + 5² = c<span>²
</span>144 + 25 = 169
<span>√169 = 13

</span>The slant height is 13. You take that component and multiply it with the side length, then divide it by 2, in order to find the area of the triangle that makes up the pyramid. You then take that product and multiply it by 4 to find the lateral area.

13 x 10 = 130
130/2 = 65
65 x 4 = 260
LA = 260

To find the total surface area, you add the lateral area (260) with the base area (the square).

260 + (10 x 10)
SA = 360

Attached is a diagram to help you visualize the problem.

Hope this helps!

If the sum of three consecutive numbers is 852, what is the middle one?
denis-greek [22]

Divide the total by the quantity of numbers:

852/3 = 284

Because there are an odd quantity of numbers (3) the answer is the middle number.

The answer is 284

Here is the histogram of a data distribution. All class widths are 1.
stich3 [128]

The median of the data is 5 if the all class widths are 1, option (C) is correct.

<h3>What is the median?</h3>

A median is a middle number in a series of numbers that have been arranged to lift, and it might be more informative of the set of data than the average. When there are extremes in the sequences that might affect the average of the numbers, the median is sometimes employed instead of the mean.

In the histogram, 15 data values are given:

1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 9

The mid-value is 5 which is on the 8th place

Thus, the median of the data is 5 if the all class widths are 1, option (C) is correct.

If AB = 9 and BC = 12 then what is AC?
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

AC = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

AB=9 centimeters, you figure out what times what is 9. in this case, it is 3 for A and B. Then you go to BC=12 and 3 for B and 4 for C making it 12 So AC would equal 3x4.

garri49 [273]

Answer:

tetrahedral

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) the shape of a molecule is dependent on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

The predicted electron pair geometry may sometimes differ from the molecular geometry due to the presence of lone pairs and multiple bonds.

If we consider each nitrogen atom in N2 independently, we will notice that each nitrogen atom has four regions of electron density. Hence the electron pair geometry is tetrahedral.
