Answer:

The value of the side PS is 26 approx.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have two right triangles. Triangle PQR and Triangle PQS.

Where S is some point on the line segment QR.

Given:

PR = 20

SR = 11

QS = 5

We know that QR = QS + SR

QR = 11 + 5

QR = 16

Now triangle PQR has one unknown side PQ which in its base.

Finding PQ:

Using Pythagoras theorem for the right angled triangle PQR.

PR² = PQ² + QR²

PQ = √(PR² - QR²)

PQ = √(20²+16²)

PQ = √656

PQ = 4√41

Now for right angled triangle PQS, PS is unknown which is actually the hypotenuse of the right angled triangle.

Finding PS:

Using Pythagoras theorem, we have:

PS² = PQ² + QS²

PS² = 656 + 25

PS² = 681

PS = 26.09

PS = 26

1) What is the surface area?<br> 1 ft<br> 8 ft<br> 4 ft
WITCHER [35]

Answer:

88 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

For a rectangular prism with dimensions 1 ft by 8 ft by 4 ft, there are two opposite faces with dimensions

<em>1 ft by 8 ft, </em>

two opposite faces with dimensions

<em>1 ft by 4 ft, </em>

and two opposite faces with dimensions

<em>4 ft by 8 ft.</em>

We find their area and add them.

SA = 2 * 1 ft * 8 ft + 2 * 1 ft * 4 ft + 2 * 4 ft * 8 ft

SA = 16 ft^2 + 8 ft^2 + 64 ft^2

SA = 88 ft^2

Is the relation a function?
Margaret [11]
No; a domain value has two range values.

x = -2 then y = 1 and 2

they would form a vertical line, which tells us that it's not a function
