Answer:

76,050 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area must be rectangular, let L be the length of the side opposite to the creek, and S be the length of the remaining two sides.

The perimeter of the fencing and the area of the pasture are:

780 = L+2S\\A= LS\\\\L=780-2S\\A=-2S^2+780S

The value of S for which the derivate of the area function is zero is the length of S that maximizes the area of pasture:

\frac{dA}{dS}=0=-4S+780\\S= 195\\L=780-(2*195)=390

The maximum possible area is:

A_{MAX}=390*195=76,050\ ft^2

Answer:

Slant height (s)= 12.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Base= 4.5 cm.

           Surface area of right square pyramid= 129.5 cm.

First, calculating slant height (s) of right square pyramid.

Surface area of square pyramid= (a^{2} +2\times a\times s)

a= side of square base.

s= slant height

∴ 129.5= (4.5^{2} + 2\times 4.5\times s)

⇒ 129.5= (20.25+2\times 4.5\times s)

⇒ 129.5= (20.25+9\times s)

Now, opening the parenthesis and subtracting both side by 20.25.

⇒ 109.25=9\times s

cross multiplying both side

∴ Slant height (s)= 12.1
