The complete question in the attached figure

we know that
the triangle AOB is congruent with triangle AOC
because
AB=AC
OB=OC-----> the radius of the circle
<span>The OB side is common
</span>but

<span>there is no additional information that allows me to calculate the OBA angle to determine if it is a right angle
</span>
therefore 

the answer is the option
<span>C. There is no indication that AB and AC are perpendicular to the radii at the points of intersection with the circle.</span>

The net of a rectangular prism is shown below. The surface area of each face is labeled. Which values represent the dimensions i
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

<h2>The dimensions are 3, 4 and 6 centimeters.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the surface of 24 square centimeters is formed by 6 times 4, which gives 24 square centimeters.

The 12 square centimeres surface is formed by 3 times 4, which gives 12.

The 18 square centimeters surface is formed by 3 times 6, which gives 18.

Therefore, the three dimensiosn to form the prism are 3 cm x 4 cm x 6 cm.

Where 6 cm is the height, 3 cm and 4 cm are the width and length.

At what rate does a payment plan for $1,500 accumulate $450 interest after 6 years?
Lisa [10]

Answer:

At a rate of 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

E = P*I*t

In which E is the amount of interest earned, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

In this question:

Payment plan for $1500 means that P = 1500

$450 interest after 6 years means that E = 450, t = 6

We have to find the rate I. So

E = P*I*t

450 = 1500*I*6

I = \frac{450}{1500*6}

I = 0.05

At a rate of 5%.
