EF = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

The square of side 18 in is divided into 3 parts of equal area by the polygonal chain

So we have

Area of the figure ABCE = Area of the figure AECF = Area of the figure AFCD

Step 2 :

Area of figure ABCE is Area of the triangle AME + Area of the trapezium EMBC

Area of triangle AME = 1/2(ME )(AM) where ME is the base and AM = 9 is the height of the triangle ( AM = 9 since M is the midpoint of AB)

Area of triangle AME = 1/2(ME )9 = 9/2(ME)

Area of the trapezium EMBC = 1/2(ME +BC)(MB) Where ME and BC are the 2  parallel sides and MB is the distance between them

Area of the trapezium EMBC = 1/2(ME+18)9 = 9/2(ME+18)

Therefore

Area of figure ABCE = 9/2(ME) + 9/2(ME+18)

=  9/2(ME +ME+18)

But we know that the area of this figure is 1/3 of the area of the square = 1/3(18*18) = 108

So, 9/2(ME +ME+18) = 108  => 2 ME + 18 = 24 = > ME = 3

Step 3 :

Using the same procedure as above we get, FN = 3

Also we have

ME + EF + FN = 18  ( side of the square)

3 + EF + 3 = 18 => EF = 12

Because there are more than 2 lengths for the sides and because the small triangle faces are right angles we will use this formula:

V=(1/2)bhl
which is equivalent to V=Al  (A=(1/2)bh and A is Area)

b=12in
h=35in
l=40in

A=(1/2)•12in•35in
A=(1/2)•420in
A=210in^2

V=Al
V=(210in^2)•40in
V=8400in^3

Making your answer D. 8400 inches cubed

Sin 0 = -3/5<br> and cos 0 &gt; 0. Identify the quadrant of the terminal side of O and find cos 0.
NARA [144]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos O is positive in the first and 4th quadrants and sin O is negative in the 3rd and 4th quadrants.

So the answer is Quadrant 4.

cos^2 O = 1 - sin^2 O

= 1 - (-3/5)^2

= 16/25

So  cos O  is +√(16/25)

= 4/5.

Find the price per unit for each item, then choose the best buy. a. Cereal, 10 oz. box for $5.90 would b. Cereal, 24 oz. box for
Taya2010 [7]

Cereal A

10 ounces = $5.90

10/10 ounces = $5.90/10 .... divide both sides by 10

1 ounce = $0.59

1 ounce = 59 cents

----------

Cereal B

24 ounces = $6.48

24/24 ounces = $6.48/24  .... divide both sides by 24

1 ounce = $0.27

1 ounce = 27 cents

We see that Cereal B is the cheaper deal per ounce

---------

<h3>Answer: Cereal B is the better deal</h3>
