Answer:

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

EM -----> the distance between the Earth and the Moon.

y -----> the distance between the Sun and the Moon.

we know that

In the right triangle of the figure

The sine of angle x is equal to divide the opposite side to angle x (distance between the Earth and the Moon.) by the hypotenuse ( distance between the Sun and the Moon)

so

sin(x)=EM/y

Solve for EM

EM=(y)sin(x)

therefore

The distance between the Earth and the Moon is equal to the distance between the Sun and the Moon multiplied by the sine of angle x

Can any one here please help me in this math problem I really need help
MArishka [77]

Answer:

The volume of the solid is the volume of the prism minus the volume of the cylinder.

For the cylinder, diameter = d = 4 cm

radius = d/2 = (4 cm)/2 = 2 cm

V = volume of prism - volume of cylinder

The volume of a prism is length times width times height.

The volume of a cylinder is pi times the square of the radius times the height.

V = LWH - (pi)r^2h

V = 6 cm * 6 cm * 15 cm - (pi)(2 cm)^2(15 cm)

V = 540 cm^3 - 60pi cm^3

V = (540 - 60pi) cm^3
