Answer:

The height of the triangle = 24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The area of the triangle = 1/2 × base × height

∵ The length of the base = 5 times the length of the height

Let the length of the height = x, then length of the base = 5x

∴ Area triangle = 1/2 × 5x × x = 2.5 x²

∵ Area of the triangle = 1440 cm²

∴ 2.5 x² = 1440

∴ x² = 1440 ÷ 2.5 = 576

∴ x = √576 = 24 cm

∴ The height of the triangle = 24 cm

Answer: 24 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculate the area of a triangle is:

A=bh/2

Where b is the base and h is the height.

Then if the base of the triangle is 5 times the height:

b=5h

Substitute the above into the formula and solve for the height. Therefore, you obtain that the height is:

1,440=\frac{5h*h}{2}\\1,440=\frac{5h^{2}}{2}

1,440cm^{2}=5h^{2}/2\\h=\sqrt{\frac{2(1,440)}{5}}\\h=24cm

Let V be the volume of the solid obtained by rotating about the y-axis the region bounded y = 4x and y = x2/4 . Find V by slicin
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the graphs of the y = 4x  and  y = \frac{x^{2} }{4}.

By equating the expressions, the intersection points of the graphs can be found and in this way delimit the area that will rotate around the Y axis.

4x = \frac{x^{2} }{4} \\   x^{2}  = 16x \\ x^{2}  - 16x = 0 \\   x(x-16) = 0 then x=0  o  x=16. Therefore the integration limits are:

y = 4(0) = 0  and  y = 4(16) = 64

The inverse functions are given by:

x = 2 \sqrt{y}  and  x = \frac{y}{4}. Then

The volume of the solid of revolution is given by:

\int\limits^{64}_ {0} \, [2\sqrt{y} - \frac{y}{4}]^{2}  dy = \int\limits^{64}_ {0} \, [4y - y^{3/2} + \frac{y^{2}}{16} ]\  dy = [2y^{2} - \frac{2}{5}y^{5/2} + \frac{y^{3}}{48} ]\limits^{64}_ {0} = 546.133 u^{2}
