Answer:

480 cubic cm.        

Step-by-step explanation:  

We have been given that a wedge of cheese in he shape of a triangular prism has lengths of 10 cm, 13 cm, and 13 cm for its triangular sides. The perpendicular distance from the 10 cm side to the point of the wedge is 12 cm. The height of the wedge is 8 cm.  

\text{Volume of triangular prism}=\text{Base area*Height of the wedge}

We can see from our attachment that base of our triangular face is 10 cm and height of the triangular face is 12 cm and height of wedge is 8 cm.

Substituting these values in volume formula we will get,

\text{Volume of cheese wedge}=\frac{1}{2}*\text{10 cm*12 cm*8 cm}

\text{Volume of cheese wedge}=\text{5 cm*12 cm*8 cm}

\text{Volume of cheese wedge}=480\text{cm}^3

Therefore, the volume of cheese wedge will be 480 cubic cm.

If the cosine of an angle is twice the sine of that angle what is the value of the angles tangent?
Alla [95]

let's say that sin(θ) = x, then the cos(θ) which is twice the sine has to be 2x, therefore then

\bf tan(\theta )=\cfrac{sin(\theta )}{cos(\theta )}~~ \begin{cases} sin(\theta )=x\\ cos(\theta )=2x \end{cases}\implies tan(\theta )=\cfrac{x}{2x}\implies tan(\theta )=\cfrac{1}{2}

What are the coordinates of the roots of the equation x^2+ 4x + 3 = 0 ?​
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Factor out the x components of the equation

(x+3)(x+1)=0

2) Take each individual term and find the value for which the equation equals zero:

x+3=0 -> x=-3

x+1=0 -> x=-1

x = -3, -1

3k^2=11+6k : complete the square
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

3(k - 1)² = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

To complete the square, write the equation standard form and make the a term's coefficient 1.

3k² = 11 + 6k

3k² - 6k - 11 = 0

3(k² - 2k) = 11

Take the middle term -2k and divide the coefficient in 2 and square it. Here it is -2/2 = -1. -1² = 1. Add 1 to both sides.

3(k² - 2k + 1) = 11 + 1

3(k - 1)² = 12
