Answer:
The correct answers are with side lengths 1 feet and 8 feet, the perimeter is 18 feet; and with side lengths 2 feet and 4 feet, the perimeter is 12 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangular banner is 8 square feet.
The side lengths of this rectangular banner are whole numbers.
Thus the possible pairs of side lengths that would give 8 when multiplied with each other are (1 , 8) ; (2 , 4).
So the possible side lengths are 1 feet and 8 feet or 2 feet and 4 feet.
The perimeter when the side lengths are 1 feet and 8 feet are 18 feet.
The perimeter when the side lengths are 2 feet and 4 feet are 12 feet.
2 4/5 I believe is the least value.
This can be solved using trigonometric functions. The distance x serves as one leg of a triangle, and makes an angle q with the hypotenuse. The distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground make up the other leg of the triangle. So solving this:
tan q = y / x
Where: y = distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground
Therefore, y = x tan q
Among the choices, the correct answer is C.
<span>A cross-section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches.
</span><span>A cross-section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches.
</span>
<span>A cross-section not parallel to the base that passes through opposite 6-inch edges is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by greater than 15 inches.
the cross sections that are parallel and perpendicular will have the same measurements as the non-intersected sides. the last one will be a diagonal so the intersected edge is 6 and it creates a right triangle so it must be larger than 15 inches.
