Answer:
<em>V = 1,568</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The Volume of a Square Pyramid</u>
Given a square-based pyramid of base side a and height h, the volume can be calculated with the formula:
We are given a square pyramid with a base side a=14 ft but we're missing the height. It can be calculated by using the right triangle shown in the image attached below, whose hypotenuse is 25 ft and one leg is 7 ft
We use Pythagora's theorem:
Solving for h:
The height is h=24 ft. Now the volume is calculated:
V = 1,568
Y=-1/2+1

Answer:
56 cm squared
Step-by-step explanation:
First things first: Cop one triangle off the rectangle, and attach it to the other one, so the shape looks like a L
Now I can actually solve this:
The left side is 8 cm (because y = 8 cm)
The top is 10 cm
The middle is 6 cm
The inside left is 3 cm
And the very bottom is 2 cm
First, we'll solve for the newly constructed rectangle: 3 x 2. That equals 6.
Next, solve for the longer rectangle: 10 x 5. That's 50.
Now, add the two areas, and we get 56. So the area of the whole thing is 56 cm squared.
(Please keep in mind that I could be wrong, so double check it for me, thanks!)
answer I got was x=6/139 or x=-0.0431655
