The sides of a equilateral triangle measure 12cm.what is the perimeter of the triangle?

Mathematics

Hi.

In an equilateral triangle, as the name implies, all the sides are equal in length.

You find perimeter by adding all the sides.

The formula for perimeter is 3<em>a </em>where <em>a</em> = the length of the side.

3(12) = 36 cm

The perimeter of the triangle is 36 cm.

My chemistry book is 8 years older than my Algebra book. In 6 years the chemistry book will be twice as old as the Algebra book.
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

x + 14 = 2(x + 6)

x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Algebra book age = x

Chemistry book age = x + 8

In 6 years time

Chemistry book age = x + 8 + 6

= x + 14

Algebra book age = x + 6

the chemistry book will be twice as old as the Algebra book.

x + 14 = 2(x+6)

x + 14 = 2x + 12

x - 2x = 12 - 14

- x = - 2

Divide both sides by -1

x = 2

Check:

Chemistry book age = x + 14

= 2 + 14

= 16

Algebra book age = x + 6

= 2 + 6

= 8

Use signed numbers to solve. A helicopter descended 1200 feet, rose 800 feet, and then descended 450 feet. What was the net gain
sergey [27]
The rise or an increase in altitude is represented by positive sign and a decend or decrease in altitude is represented by negative sign. 

First the helicopter descended 1200 feet. So the change in altitude will be -1200 feet.

Then the helicopter rose by 800 feet. So the change in altitude will be 800 feet.

Finally the helicopter descended by 450 feet. So the change in altitude will be -450 feet.

The net change in altitude will be the sum of all the above 3 changes. 
Change in altitude = -1200 + 800 - 450 = -850 feet

The negative sign indicates a descend i.e. loss in altitude. So the net change in altitude was a loss of 850 feet.

What is the volume of this cone?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

The volume of the cone is approximately 453.0 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cone is one third that of a cylinder with the same height and radius.  That gives us  1/3 πr²h, where r is radius and h is height.

However, we are not given the height of the cone, but the side length.  We can work out the height using the Pythagorean theorem, as we have a right triangle with the height, base radius, and length.  You may recall that the Pythagorean theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of it's other two sides:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

So we can find the height of the cone with that:

10.8^2 = 7.4^2 + h^2\\h^2 = 10.8^2 - 7.4^2\\h^2 = 116.64 - 54.76\\h^2 = 61.88\\h = \sqrt{61.88}\\h \approx  7.9

Now that we have the cone's height, we can solve for its volume:

v = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 h\\v = \frac{1}{3} \pi \times 7.4^2  \times 7.9\\v = \frac{1}{3} \pi \times 54.76 \times 7.9\\v = \frac{1}{3} \pi \times 432.6\\v = \pi \times 144.2\\v \approx 453.0 cm^3
