Answer:

(A) 180

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to treat those player selections as independent events, since one doesn't influence the other (the fact you chose Joe as a guard, shouldn't have an influence on who'll pick as center, unless there's bad blood between some players... but that's a whole other story).

So, how many ways to pick 2 guards from a selection of 4? The order doesn't seem to matter here, since they don't specify for example that Joe can only play on the left side). So, it's a pure combination calculation:

$C(4,2) = \frac{4!}{2! * (4 - 2)!} = \frac{24}{2 * 2} = 6$

C(4,2) = 6.

How many ways to pick the 2 forwards from a group of 5? Using the same calculation, we get:

C(5,2) = 10.

And of course, the coach has 3 ways to pick a center player from 3.

Then we multiply the possible ways to pick guards, forwards and center...

6 * 10 * 3 = 180 ways.

That is not true there is a person and that person is called god and he created us sense day one and he sent down Jesus to die on the cross for our sins and he went through the worst thing imaginable just to save us from our sins. If you don’t believe me look it up and it will tell you who created us so you should be thankful you are here today if it wasn’t for Jesus you would not be here who ever said that is wrong trust me.

The diagram shows a 3 cm x 5 cm x 4 cm cuboid

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

a) The length of segment AC is approximately 5.83 centimeters.

b) The angle ACD is approximately 34.5º.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Since $AB \perp BC$ , the length of segment $AC$ is determined by Pythagorean Theorem, that is:

$AC = \sqrt{(5\,cm)^{2}+(3\,cm)^{2}}$

$AC \approx 5.831\,cm$

The length of segment AC is approximately 5.831 centimeters.

b) Since $AB \perp BC \perp AD$ , the length of segment $AD$ is determined by this Pythagorean identity:

$AD = \sqrt{(3\,cm)^{2}+(5\,cm)^{2}+(4\,cm)^{2}}$

$AD \approx 7.071\,cm$

The angle ACD is determined by the following trigonometric expression:

$\cos C = \frac{AC}{CD}$

$\cos C = \frac{5.831\,cm}{7.071\,cm}$

$\cos C = 0.825$

$C = \cos^{-1} 0.825$

$C \approx 34.448^{\circ}$

The angle ACD is approximately 34.448º.

A triangular prism is 40 millimeters long and has a triangular face with a base of 24 millimeters and a height of 35 millimeters

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

26,508

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how to solve this is that we first need to know that Triangular prisms have their own formula for finding surface area because they have two triangular faces opposite each other. The formula A=12bh is used to find the area of the top and bases triangular faces, where A = area, b = base, and h = height.

Also: To find the total surface area of a prism, you need to calculate the area of two polygonal bases, the top face and bottom face. And then calculate the area of lateral faces connecting the bases. Add up the area of the two bases and the area of the lateral faces to get the total surface area of a prism.

The top= 12 x 24 x 35 = 10,080

The lateral faces: 12 x 37 x 37 = 16,428

Surface Area= 10,080 + 16,428 = 26,508
