A pyramid has a square base with an area of 169ft. What is the perimeter of the base of the pyramid?

Mathematics

Answer:52 ft.

Step-by-step explanation: If the area of the base of the pyramid is

169

ft

2

then each side of the base is

13

ft

long because the base of the pyramid is a square.

Length of the side,

s

=

√

169

=

13

Iif we take the area of a square

A

=

s

2

where

s

=

13

we get the area of the base to be

169

ft

2

thus proving that each side of the base is

13

ft

long.

So to find the perimeter of the base of the pyramid we use the formula:

P

=

4

s

where

s

=

13

ft

and thus,

p

=

4

⋅

13

ft

=

52

ft

What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

     \large\boxed{\large\boxed{47unit^2}}

Explanation:

The complete question is:

<em>A hole the size of a photograph is cut from a red piece of paper to use in a picture frame.</em>

<em />

<em>On a coordinate plane, 2 squares are shown. The photograph has points (-3, -2), (- 2, 2), (2, 1), and (1, -3). The red paper has points (- 4, 4), (4, 4), (4, -4), and (-4, -4).</em>

<em />

<em>What is the area of the piece of red paper after the hole for the photograph has been cut?</em>

<em />

<h2><em>Solution</em></h2>

<em />

The area of the piece of redpaper after the hole has been cut is equal to the area of the big square less the area of the small rectangle.

<u>1. Area of the big rectangle</u>

Vertices:

  • <em>(- 4, 4) </em>
  • <em>(4, 4)</em>
  • <em>(4, -4)</em>
  • <em>(-4, -4)</em>

<em />

The side length is the distance between two consecutive vertices:

The two points (-4,4) and (4,4) has the same y-coordinate, thus the length is just the absolute value of the difference of the x-coordinates:

  • 4-(-4)=4+4=8

The area of this square is    (8unit)^2=64unit^2

<u>2. Area of the small square</u>

Vertices:

  • <em>(-3, -2)</em>
  • <em>(- 2, 2) </em>
  • <em>(2, 1)</em>
  • <em>(1, -3)</em>

<em />

To find the side length use the distance formula for two consecutive points, for instance (2,1) and (-2,2):

      d=\sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2}\\ \\d=\sqrt{(2-(-2))^2+(2-1)^2}=\sqrt{4^2+1^2}=\sqrt{17}

The area is:

          (\sqrt{17}unit)^2}=17unit^2

<u>3. Area of the piece of red paper after the holw for the photograph has been cut:</u>

<u />

Find the difference:

<u />

         64unit^2-17unit^2=47unit^2

<em />

What are the steps to graphing a linear equation?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Locate the y-intercept on the graph and plot the point.

From this point, use the slope to find a second point and plot it.

Draw the line that connects the two points.

A local grocery store is running a marketing promotion on social media. They are randomly choosing a winner from the entrants th
AlladinOne [14]

Using it's concept, it is found that the odds that the winner shops in the store 4 or more times a week are given by: 9:41.

<h3>What is the odd of an event?</h3>

It is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of non-desired outcomes</u>.

Researching the problem on the internet, it is found that 18% of the winners shop in the store 4 or more times a week, while 82% do not, hence:

18:82 = 9:41

The odds that the winner shops in the store 4 or more times a week are given by: 9:41.
