Explain why a cross section of a polyhedron does not always match the base of that polyhedron.

Mathematics
1 answer:
balandron [24]2 years ago
6 0

Explanation:

If the polyhedron is a prism and the cross sections are parallel to the base, then the cross section will match the base. Under other conditions, the cross section may not match the base.

For example, the first attachment is a figure of a cube. Cross sections are shown that have the shape of a triangle, trapezoid and hexagon. Other cross sections are possible.

A general polyhedron need not be regular and need not have any cross section congruent to the base (except the cross section that <em>is</em> the base). For some polyhedrons, it may be difficult even to identify the base. See the second attachment.

The sum of two numbers is -18. If the first number is 10, which equation represents this situation, and what is the second numbe
ki77a [65]
Don’t know if there’s much of an equation for it, but I guess the best way to write it out is 10 + x = -18. Then, you would subtract the 10 from both sides in order to isolate the x. So then you’re left with x = -28. So -28 is your answer.

An unopened cereal box contains `15/28` cubic foot of cereal. If the box is full, and the length and height of the box are `5/7`
VikaD [51]

Answer:

1/2ft

Step-by-step explanation:

15/28=(5/7)(1 1/2)(w)

15/28=(5/7)(3/2)w

15/28=(15/14)w

(15/28)/(15/14)=w

(15/28)*(14/15)=w

w=14/28

w=1/2 ft
