The figure below shows a shaded rectangular region inside a large rectangle: (pic)
mariarad [96]

Answer:

D


Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of falling NOT in the shaded region is "area of white region" <em>divided by</em> "area of whole rectangle (big one)".


<u>Area of whole rectangle:</u>

Area of rectangle = length * width = 10 * 5 = 50


<u>Area of White Region:</u>

First, area of shaded region = length * width = 4 * 2 = 8

Now,

Area of white region = area of whole rectangle - area of shaded rectangle

Area of white region = 50 - 8 = 42


Hence, probability is \frac{42}{50}=0.84

0.84 = 84%

Answer choice D is right.

find the length of the long diagonal of a rhombus when it's area of 24 square centimeters and it's short diagonal is 4 centimete
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

A rhombus is a parallelogram with all four sides equal.

Its diagonals are perpendicular.

Each of the triangles formed by the diagonals and the sides are congruent, so the area of the rhombus is 4 times the area of one of the triangles.

Since the short diagonal is given as 4, each of the triangles can be viewed as having a base of 2.  Each triangle's height, h, then is one half the length of the long diagonal.

The are of one of the triangles is 1/2 (base)(height)=(1/2)(2)h

The area of the rhombus is then

4(1/2)(2)h=24

Solving for h gives

h=6

This makes the length of the long diagonal 2h=12

Hi, I don't need this really fast, but I really don't understand how to do surface area and lateral surface area with rectangula
ipn [44]

Answer:

The surface area is the area that describes the material that will be used to cover a geometric solid. When we determine the surface areas of a geometric solid we take the sum of the area for each geometric form within the solid.
