1. The rectangular prism is a right prism with rectangular bases (check the picture)
2. It has 8 vertices, so we are looking for 3d figures with 4 vertices.
3. A face can have at least 3 vertices, and the 4th must be outside of the plane determined by the first 3 vertices. This makes 4 vertices in total.
4. The 3d figure described in step 3 is a pyramid.
First create the equation y=Mx+ B
B is the y intercept so when y = 0, B = -1.
Now we have y=Mx - 1
The slope is M. We can calculate this by using the formula M = (y2 -y1) / (x2 - x1)
Use the points (0, -1) and (2,3) for these values. So y2 = 3, y1 = -1, x2 = 2, x1 = 0
Plug them into the equation and solve
M = (3 + 1) / (2 - 0)
M = 4/2 = 2
Now we have the equation y = 2x - 1
Next to figure out if the points given are on the line you take the values and plug them into your equation like so: 4 = 2(-2) - 1
2(-2) - 1 does not equal 4 so this point does not fall on this line. Follow this same procedure for the next point given.
Answer:
The legs of a 45 45 90 triangle are congruent so if one leg is x we can write (using the Pythagorean Theorem):
x² + x² = 18²
2x² = 324
x² = 162
x = 9√2
The answer is h = 2y + 32
