Paul should sell 3 paintings per hour to recover his cost.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total paintings = 32

Minimum amount to sale = 17

Paintings sold = 3

Paintings left = 17 - 3 = 14

Time left = 5 hours

Therefore, he needs to sell 14 paintings in 5 hours.

5 hours = 14 paintings

1 hour = \frac{14}{5} = 2.8\ paintings

Rounding off to nearest whole number;

2.8 paintings = 3 paintings

Paul should sell 3 paintings per hour to recover his cost.

Your search - construct a right triangle ABC in which base ABC in which baseBC =4.8cm,AngleB=90 degree and AC=6.2cm.
suter [353]

Answer:

AB = 3.9CM ; A = 51° ; C = 39°

Step-by-step explanation:

Base BC = 4.8cm

AC = 6.2cm

Angle B = 90°

Using trigonometry, the length of AB can be obtained thus :

AB^2 = AC^2 - BC^2

AB^2 = 6.2^2 - 4.8^2

AB^2 = 38.44 - 23.04

AB^2 = 15.4

AB = sqrt(15.4)

AB = 3.92 cm

Angle A :

Using :

Sinα = opposite / hypotenus

Sinα = 4.8 / 6.2

Sinα = 0.7741935

α = sin^-1 (0.7741935)

α = 50.73

A = 51° (approximately)

Angle C ;

(A + B + C) = 180 (Sum of angles in a triangle)

51 + 90 + C = 180

141 + C = 180

C = 180 - 141

C = 39°

The surface area of the new figure is 1470 square meters, if the edge length of the smaller cube is half the edge length of the cube below and edge length of bottom cube is 14 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is,

         Length of Bottom (larger) cube is 14 meters

Step:1

      Surface area of new figure = (Surface area of smaller cube) +  

                                             (Surface area of bottom (larger) cube)....(1)

Step:2

        Surface area of Bottom(larger) cube is,

                             Surface area, A = 6a^{2}..............................................(2)

        From given, a = 14 m

        Equation (2) becomes,

                                                                  =6(14)^{2}

                                                                  =(6)(196)

                                                                   =1176

              Surface area of bottom cube, A = 1176 square meters

Step:3

           Surface area of smaller (top) cube is,

                         Surface area, A = 6a^{2}....................................................(3)

             From given, a = 7 m                   ( ∵ The edge length of the smaller cube is half the edge length of the cube below)

             Equation (2) becomes,

                                                                  =6(7)^{2}

                                                                  =(6)(49)

                                                                   =294

              Surface area of bottom cube, A = 294 square meters

Step:4

        From equation (1),

                      Surface area of new figure = 1176 + 294

                                                                    = 1470

                      Surface area of new figure = 1470 square meters

Result:

           The surface area of the new figure is 1470 square meters, if the edge length of the smaller cube is half the edge length of the cube below and edge length of bottom cube is 14 m.

What is the length of the base of a right triangle with an area of 20m2 and the height of 4 m
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

The base is 10 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a right triangle is (b × h) ÷ 2 = a

Let's input the given values and find the value of b:

(b × 4) ÷ 2 = 20

4b ÷ 2 = 20

2b = 20

b = 10

Check:

(10 × 4) ÷ 2 = 20

40 ÷ 2 = 20

20 = 20

It works!
