The volume of a pyramid is one-third of the product of its altitude and area of the base. 

Area of the base = (8 in)² = 64 in²

Altitude:
    The altitude is the length of the right triangle formed from the base and the slant height as the hypotenuse.
                                    (5 in)² = h² + (4 in)²
                                            h = 3 in

Volume:
                                   V = Ah/3
                                   V = (64 in²)(9 in) / 3 = 192 in³

The volume of the solid right pyramid is equal to <em>192 in³</em>.

Given the diagram below what is the length of segment EF
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

C is the closest.,

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that the 2 trapezoids CBEF and EFDA are similar (they are similar if the 3 horizontal lines are parallel).

Corresponding sides are in the same ratio , so:

3.4 / EF = EF / 7.6

EF^2 = 3.4 * 7.6 =  25.84

EF = 5.08

A container is the shape of an inverted right circular cone has a radius of 4.00 inches at the top and a height of 5.00 inches.
Len [333]

The rate at which the water from the container is being drained is 24 inches per second.

Given radius of right circular cone 4 inches .height being 5 inches, height of water is 2 inches and rate at which surface area is falling is 2 inches per second.

Looking at the image we can use similar triangle propert to derive the relationship:

r/R=h/H

where dh/dt=2.

Thus r/5=2/5

r=2  inches

Now from r/R=h/H

we have to  write with initial values of cone and differentiate:

r/5=h/5

5r=5h

differentiating with respect to t

5 dr/dt=5 dh/dt

dh/dt is given as 2

5 dr/dt=5*-2

dr/dt=-2

Volume of cone is 1/3 πr^{2} h

We can find the rate at which the water is to be drained by using partial differentiation on the volume equation.

Thus

dv/dt=1/3 π(2rh*dr/dt)+(r^{2}*dh/dt)

Putting the values which are given and calculated we get

dv/dt=1/3π(2*2*2*2)+(4*2)

=1/3*3.14*(16+8)

=3.14*24/3.14

=24 inches per second

Hence the rate at which the water is drained from the container is 24 inches per second.
