The original motivation for choosing the degree as a unit of rotations
and angles is unknown. One theory states that it is related to the fact
that 360 is approximately the number of days in a year.[5] Ancient astronomers noticed that the sun, which follows through the ecliptic path over the course of the year, seems to advance in its path by approximately one degree each day
Hope you know that formula for volume of a cube is area of base time height
and volume of a square pyramid is area of base time height divide 3
- so in this your exercise case we know that area of cube is 36 cm^3 what is area of base time height
- so this mean that the volume of a square pyramide what can fit perfectly inside the cube will be equal 36/3 = 12 cm^3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area formula for pyramids is given by :
...(1)
We need to arrange the formula for l.
Take b to LHS,
![S-b=\dfrac{1}{2}Pl\\\\2(S-b)=Pl\ [\text{cross-multiplying}]\\\\l=\dfrac{2(S-b)}{P}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=S-b%3D%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7DPl%5C%5C%5C%5C2%28S-b%29%3DPl%5C%20%5B%5Ctext%7Bcross-multiplying%7D%5D%5C%5C%5C%5Cl%3D%5Cdfrac%7B2%28S-b%29%7D%7BP%7D)
So, the expression is 
for the slant height.
Mr. Reed DATA:
rate = 40 mph ; time = x 4.5 hrs ; distance = 40x miles
-----
Mrs. Reed DATA:
rate = 60 mph ; time = x hrs ; distance = 60x - 210 miles
------
Equation:
40x = 60x -210
-20x = -210
x = 10.5 hrs
x-3.5 = 7 hrs (Mr. Reed's time)
