Complete Question

Which formulas can be used to find the surface area of a regular pyramid

where p is the perimeter of the base, s is the slant height, BA is the base area,

and LA is the lateral area?

Check all that apply.

a) SA = BA + 1/2ps

b) SA = 2BA + 1/2ps

c) SA = BA + LA

d) SA = BA + 2LA

e) SA = 8.LA

Answer:

a) SA = BA + 1/2ps

d) SA = BA + 2LA

Step-by-step explanation:

When finding the surface area of a regular pyramid it is important to take note of two things

A pyramid has a Base area which is always represented by BA.

a) When a regular pyramid has similar ( side)faces, for examples a regular square pyramid, which has the base of a square, the formula to use is

Surface Area = Base Area + 1/2ps

Where p = Perimeter of the side faces

s = Slant height.

b) When the side faces are not so similar , for example, we are given a triangular based pyramid, the formula we would use is given as:

Surface Area = Base Area + Lateral Area.

Therefore, the formulas we can use to find the Surface Areas or a regular pyramid are:

a) SA = BA + 1/2ps

d) SA = BA + 2LA

Given a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 15 feet and a height of 6 feet, find the measurement of angle

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

66.42° between height and hypotenuse

23.58° between base and hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the concept of cosine and sine, we know that cosine of an angle is equal to the adjacent divided by hypotenuse.

Similarly, sine of an angle is given by opposite divided by hypotenuse

Tangent is given by opposite divided by adjacent

In rhis case, we use cosine

$\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac {6}{15})=66.4218215217982\\\theta\approx 66.42^{\circ}$

Therefore, the angle between the hypotenuse and height is 66.42°

To find the angle between base and hypotenuse, since it is a right angle triangle then the other angle will be 90-66.42=23.58°

Determine the midpoint between the two points x(4,-6) and y(-2,8)

ikadub [295]

Answer:

$p(a, b) = (1, 1)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint formula is

$p(a, b)=(\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )$ ---------------(1)

Here

$(x_1, y_1) = (4, -6) \ \ \ and \ \ \ (x_2, y_2) = (-2, 8)$

Substituting values in equation (1)

$p(a, b)=(\frac{4 - 2}{2}, \frac{-6 + 8}{2} )$

$p(a, b) = (1, 1)$

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct answer is C. 8.15%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Natasha is a bank teller, and she received a 5% raise last year and a subsequent merit raise of 3% this year, to determine what is the accumulative or compound effect of these two raises as a percentage, the following calculation must be performed, assuming, as an example, that her starting salary was $ 2,000:

(2,000 x 1.05) x 1.03 = X

2,100 x 1.03 = X

2,163 = X

2,000 = 100

2,163 = X

2,163 x 100 / 2,000 = X

216,300 / 2,000 = X

108.15 = X

108.15 - 100 = 8.15

Thus, the compound effect of both salary increases is a salary increase of 8.15%.
