Answer:

A square smaller than the base

Explanation:

A square pyramid is a 3 Dimensional image. When you slice a 3 Dimensional image you form is a 2 Dimensional image for example a rectangle, a square, a triangle e.t.c.

The shape of the cross sections formed after slicing a 3 Dimensional image is dependent on the way it was sliced.

This means it can be sliced horizontally or vertically and this would result in different shapes.

If square pyramid is sliced parallel to the base and halfway up the pyramid, the shape of the cross section formed is a square smaller than the base.

So I don't understand how V = lwh (h).... the topic is literal equations.

Kruka [31]

1) Solving in terms of h

V = lwh Divide both sides by h

$\begin{gathered} V\text{ = lwh} \\ \frac{V}{h}=\frac{lwh}{h} \\ \frac{V}{h}\text{ =}lw\text{ Cross multiply} \\ hlw=V\text{ Divide both sides by lw} \\ \frac{hlw}{lw}=\text{ }\frac{V}{lw} \\ h\text{ = }\frac{V}{lw} \end{gathered}$

So rearranging that equation we can find h, in terms of V, and l and w.

If we want to solve in terms of l, or w, we'll proceed similarly to isolate the variable we want on the left side, and the other terms on the right side.

Austin is building a miniature replica of the empire state building. the actual empire state building is 1,423 feet tall and 6,0

Fofino [41]

60/6000 = x/1423

100/1 = 1423/x

100x = 1423

x = 14.23 --> About 14 cm

Tonya and Pearl each completed a separate proof to show that the alternate interior angles AKL and FLK are congruent. Who comple

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: Pearl

Step-by-step explanation:

In step 2, she justified her step by the definition of vertical angles. However, angles AKL and GKB do not share a common side, meaning they are not adjacent angles.

PLZ HELP ASAP!!!!!!!

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

angle 1 and angle 2 are supplementary angles

Step-by-step explanation:

When the base of the angles forms a straight line, the sum of the angles is 180°. That's the definition of supplementary angles.

Complementary angles form a right angle. The sum of complementary angles is 90°

A slightly silly way to remember Complementary angles: The two angles look at each other and compliment each other saying, "You look all right to me!"

"Yes, we are so right together!"
