Answer:
height = 5cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of the cuboid = length x breadth x height
7500 = 25 x 60 x height
height = 7500 / 1500
height = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
the problem description is incomplete or wrongly copied.
we don't know the thickness of the boards, and we cannot understand what we need to calculate, and what the answer options are.
From the two right triangles, you can write the following equations using the Pythagorean theorem. Let's call that shared leg in the middle "y"
y^2 + b^2 = a^2
y^2 + c^2 = x^2
y^2 + b^2 = a^2
re-write this to get "y" alone for substitution.
y^2 = a^2 - b^2
substitute (a^2 - b^2) for y^2 in the other equation. y^2 + c^2 = x^2
a^2 - b^2 + c^2 = x^2
Now put in the values given for a,b,c to solve for x
(7.1)^2 - (5.6)^2 + (5.7)^2 = x^2
51.54 = x^2
square root
7.2 = x
The answer is C because the numbers increase by 2 each time.
