Given:

AB = 370 miles
angle A = 24 degrees
BC = 240 miles
angle B = 37 degrees 

To determine the distance from point A to C, we can use the cosine law since we are given two angles and two sides of a regular triangle. 
The angle opposite side AC is angle B which is equal to 37 degrees. 

(AC)^2 =(AB)^2 + (BC)^2 - 2(AB)(BC)cos(B)

solve for AC:

(AC)^2 =(370)^2 + (240)^2 - 2(370)(240)cos(37) 

AC = 229.48 miles.

Therefore, the distance from point A to C is 229.5 miles.

Approximately how much wood makes up the flower vase? A. 704 cubic centimeters B. 2,771 Cubic centimeters C. 3,651 cubic centime
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

B) 2771 cubic centimeter

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the volume of the cylinder

V=πr^2h

V=3.14*7^2*26

V=4002.39

then find the volume of the cone

V=πr^2h /3

V=3.14*7^2*24/3

V=1231.5

subtract the volume of the cone from the cylinder

4002.39-1231.5

2770.89

round to the nearest whole number

2771
