Unfortunately, this item does not come with any figure to illustrate the lengths of the rectangle. However, it may be noted that by connecting two opposite vertices of a rectangle by a diagonal, we form a right triangle. We may then use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the answer. 
                                     a² + b² = c²
c in this equation is the length of the diagonal, a and b are the lengths of the sides.

For this case what we should do is define the variables.

We have then:

AB: length of the rectangle

BC: rectangle width

d: diagonal of the rectangle

The diagonal of the rectangle is given by:

d ^ 2 = AB ^ 2 + BC ^ 2

From here, we clear the value of AB:

AB ^ 2 = d ^ 2 - BC ^ 2

Substituting values:

AB ^ 2 = 2 ^ 2 - BC ^ 2\\AB ^ 2 = 4 - BC ^ 2\\AB = \sqrt{4 - BC ^ 2}

Answer:

the length of line segment AB is:

AB = \sqrt{4 - BC ^ 2}

Answer:

V_{composite\: figure} =678.24\: in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

  • For a single cylinder:

  • radius (r) = 3 in (Given)

  • height (h) = 8 in (Given)

  • It is given that: all the three cylinders are identical, means their radii and heights are equal.

  • Thus, the volume of composite figure will be equal to three times the volume of single cylinder.

  • \implies V_{composite\: figure} =3(\pi r^2 h)

  • \implies V_{composite\: figure} =3(3.14\times  (3)^2 \times 8)

  • \implies V_{composite\: figure} =3(226.08)

  • \implies V_{composite\: figure} =678.24\: in^3

Answer:

<h2> <em><u>384</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Dimensions of the rectangular prism = 9ft, 12ft and 4ft

<em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Surface area of the rectangular prism

= 2( lb + bh + lh)

= 2(12 \times 9 + 9 \times 4 + 12 \times 4) {ft}^{2}

= 2(108 + 36 + 48) {ft}^{2}

= 2 \times 192 {ft}^{2}

= 384 {ft}^{2}

<em><u>Hence</u></em><em><u>,</u></em>

<em><u>Surface</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>area</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>of</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>rectangular</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>prism</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>is</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>384</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>sq</u></em><em><u>.</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>ft</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>(</u></em><em><u>Ans</u></em><em><u>)</u></em>
