<h2>Answer:</h2>

\boxed{V=40\sqrt{3}cm^3}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

A prism is a solid object having two identical bases, hence the same cross section along the length. Prism are called after the name of their base. In a right prism every edge that connects the base and the opposite face makes right angles with both faces. Moreover, a triangular prism is a solid whose base is a triangle. In general, a prism's volume is always equal to the area of its base, which has the same area of the top face, times its height. In mathematical language:

V=A_{b}\times H \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ A_{b}:Base \ Area \\ \\ H:Height

Since the base is an equilateral triangle with side 4 cm, then we'll use Heron's formula to find the area. This formula uses triangle's side lengths and the semiperimeter. A polygon's semiperimeter s is half its perimeter. So the area of a triangle can be found by A=\sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)} being a,\:b\:and\:c the corresponding sides of the triangle. So:

s=\frac{4+4+4}{2}=6cm \\ \\ a=b=c=4cm \\ \\ A_{b}=\sqrt{6(6-4)^3}=4\sqrt{3}cm^2

Finally:

V=4\sqrt{3}\times 10 \\ \\ \boxed{V=40\sqrt{3}cm^3}

Solve the equation 4-2(x+7)=3(x+5) =
kumpel [21]

Hi there!


To solve this equation, I first would like to warn you about the long answer I am about to post for you. I'll be putting in very detailed steps for you, showing you how to simplify and distribute numbers, etc. :)


Let us solve your equation step-by-step.


Step 1) Simplify both sides of the equation.


To simplify this, we will...


4 + (-2) (x) + (-2) (7) = (3) (x) + (3) (5)


4 + - 2x + - 14 = 3x + 15


(-2x) + (4 + - 14) = 3x + 15


Now, we combine Like Terms...


-2x + - 10 = 3x + 15


-2x - 10 = 3x + 15


Fwew! That was probably going to be the longest step here!


Step 2) Subtract 3x from both sides.


- 2x - 10 - 3x = 3x + 15 - 3x


- 5x - 10 = 15


Step 3) Add 10 to both sides.


- 5x - 10 + 10 = 15 + 10


- 5x = 25


Step 4) Divide both sides by -5.


-5x/-5 = 25/-5


So, our final answer is x = -5.


Hope this helps!

Message me if you need anything else! I'd be happy to help! :D

Can anyone help me in Ptolemy's theorem?
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Well, I'm not sure what you mean but Ptolemy's Theorem gives a relationship between the side lengths and the diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral; it is the equality case of Ptolemy's Inequality. Ptolemy's Theorem frequently shows up as an intermediate step in problems involving inscribed figures.

Sonbull [250]

= 4 (6) - 4 (√2) + √2 (6) - √2 <span>√2
</span>= 24 - 4√2  + 6√2 - 2 
= (24 - 2)  +  (- 4√2  + 6√2)
= 22 + √2(- 4 + 6)
= 22 + √2 (2)
= 22 + 2√2

hope it helps
