Answer:
Both figures have a perimeter of 112 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 5:
You are given a 6-sided shape, but only 4 sides. To find the perimeter, you need to account for the lengths of the other two sides. As all the angles are right angles, the length of the top horizontal side is equal to the combined length of the bottom two horizontal sides. Similarly the length of the left vertical side is equal to the combined length of the right two vertical sides. Because of this, you actually don't need to find the lengths of the unknown sides to answer the question.
This means the perimeter is:
Question 6:
Exactly the same process as above. Just double the longest vertical and horizontal sides (since the sum of the corresponding shorter sides is equal). You'll notice the longest horizontal side is 31, and the longest vertical side is 25...exactly the same as the previous question.
Therefore, the perimeter will again be 112 inches.
These two questions illustrate the difference between area and perimeter. Even though the perimeter of the two shapes is the same, the area of the second shape is larger than the area of the first.
Answer:
144 m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
Please find attached the image of the prisms
Volume of a triangular prism = area of the base x height of the prism
Area of the base = 1/2 ( base x height)
the two prisms are similar, thus, the dimensions of the bigger rectangle can be gotten from the ratio of the base of the smaller and bigger triangle
ratio of their dimensions = 6 / 1.5 = 4
the dimensions of the bigger triangle is 4 times that of the smaller triangle
height of the base of the prism = 1.5 x 4 = 6
Height of the prism = 2 x 4 = 8
Area of the base of the prism = (1/2) x 6 x 6 = 18 m^2
Volume of the prism = 18 x 8 = 144 m^3
