Answer:

The length of a side of the base is 20 centimeters.

The area of a lateral side between the bases is about 126.5 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's a rectangular prism with a total volume of 800 cu cm, and a height of 20 cm.

So, the base has an area of... 800/20 = 40 sq cm.

The prism is a cube. NO. If it was a cube, the base would be 400 sq cm (20x20), since the height is 20.

The diagonal of the base is 4 centimeters. NO. with a base of 40 sq cm, it's impossible to have a diagonal of 4 cm. A diagonal would form a hypotenuse... and an hypotenuse is longer than the two other sides... an hypotenuse of 4 would mean for example sides of about 2 and 3... which gives 6 sq cm for the base, not 40.

The length of a side of the base is 20 centimeters. COULD BE. The base is 40 sq cm, it could have a side of 20 and the other of 2. Without knowing more about the prism than what's included in the question, we can't say YES and we can't say NO.

The area of a base is 40 square centimeters. Yes

The area of a lateral side between the bases is about 126.5 square centimeters. YES, since the height is 20, that would mean one side of the base would be roughly 6.325 cm... for a base area of 6.325 x 6.325 = 40 sq cm.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1. The area of a base is 40 square centimeters.

2. The area of a lateral side between the bases is about 126.5 square centimeters.

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The statements that describe the prism are:

1. The area of a base is 40 square centimeters.

To find the volume of any rectangular prism, we use the formula $base \times height$ .

It is given that the volume of prism is 800 cubic centimeters and height is 20 centimeters.

Putting these values in the volume formula, to find base(B):

$800=B(20)$

$B=40$

Hence, area of base is 40 square centimeters.

2. The area of a lateral side between the bases is about 126.5 square centimeters.

If b is the midpoint of ac and if c is the midpoint of bd, then what percent of cd is ac

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

ac is 200% of cd

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we shall be making a visual representation.

Let’s take it one at a time.

Given;

b is the midpoint of ac

a b c

What this means is that a-b represents 50%, while bc represents another 50%

okay, we move on:

c is the midpoint of bd

b c d

What this means is that bc is 50%, while cd is another 50%.

So let’s combine the representations;

a 50% b 50% c 50% d

Now what does the question says again?

What percent of cd is ac?

From a to c, we can see two 50% which means 100%

while cd is just the regular 50%

So we can see that ac is actually twice cd

What we are saying here is , if cd is x, then ac is 2x

So we can restructure our question to mean, what percent of x is 2x?

That is simply 2x/x * 100 and that is 200%

M ∠4 = 2x°, m ∠2 = (4/3)x°, m ∠3 = 20°, find x.

anygoal [31]

The answer is c, b/c...

20+(4/3)x=2x

-(4/3)x -(4/3)x

20=(2/3)x

20/(2/3)=(2/3)x/(2/3)

A: 30=x
