Answer:

Answer ::+-6

Step-by-step explanation:

x:3=12:x

or, x/3 = 12/x

Doing cross multiplication,

x^2=36

Putting sqare root on both sides,

x= sqrt. 36

x= +- 6

Therefore x=+-6.

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Express the ratio in fractional form, that is

$\frac{x}{3}$ = $\frac{12}{x}$ ( cross- multiply )

x² = 36 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = ± $\sqrt{36}$ = ± 6

Thus x = 6 is the positive value

What does y equal ??!?!

garik1379 [7]

<h3>Answer: 658.3</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

The adjacent complementary angle to that 28 degree angle is 62 degrees because 62+28 = 90.

If the reference angle is the upper acute angle 62 degrees, then the y is the opposite leg and the side 350 is the adjacent leg.

Use the tangent ratio

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(62) = y/350

350*tan(62) = y

y = 350*tan(62)

y = 658.254262871217

y = 658.3

Find the surface area of the pyramid. The side lengths of the base are equal. Square pyramid with base edge of 12 centimeters, a

sdas [7]

Answer:

the surface area of the square pyramid is 576.66 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the surface area of square pyramid is given below:

A = a^2 + 2a × √a^2 ÷ √4 + √h^2

where

a = 12 cm

h = 17 cm

Now put the value of a and h in the above formula

= 12^2 + 2(12) × √12^2 ÷ √4 + √17^2

= 576.66 cm^2

hence, the surface area of the square pyramid is 576.66 cm^2

What is the volume of a cone that has a radius of 4 cm and a height of 9 cm?

vodka [1.7K]

For any sort of pyramid or cone, the volume is 1/3 of the volume of a prism with the same base and height. Since the volume of a prism/cylinder is $V=Bh$ , the volume of a pyramid/cone is $V=\frac{1}3Bh$ .

In this case, our base is a circle, which has a radius of 4 cm.
The area of a circle is $A=\pi r^2$ where r is the radius.
$A=\pi (4)^2=\pi (4\times4)=16\pi=B$

We now know that our base is 16π cm.
We also know that our height is 9 cm.
Let's plug these into our volume formula.

$V=\frac{1}3\times16\pi \times9$

Use 3.14 to approximate pi as the question states. 16 × 3.14 = 50.24.

$V\approx\frac{1}3\times50.24\times9$

We could punch all of that into our calculator to get the same answer, but since 1/3 of 9 is clearly 3, let's just go with that.

$V\approx3\times50.24$

$\boxed{V\approx150.72\ cm^3}$
