Answer:

7.96 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Length of ramp L = 8 ft

Angle with the horizontal (ground) = 6°

Applying trigonometry;

With the length of ramp as the hypothenuse,

The horizontal distance d as the adjacent to angle 6°

Since we want to calculate the adjacent and we have the hypothenuse and the angle. We can apply cosine;

Cosθ = adjacent/hypothenuse

Substituting the values;

Cos6° = d/8

d = 8cos6°

d = 7.956175162946

d = 7.96 ft

The building is 7.96ft away from the entry point of the ramp.

<u>Question 2</u>

<u>Question 3</u>

The volume of the triangular prism is 108 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Formula used</u>

Volume of a prism = base area × height

Area of a rectangle = width × length

Area of a triangle = 1/2 × base × height

Volume of a cube = s³  (where s is the side length)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3><u>Question 1</u></h3>

⇒ Volume of Figure A = (5 · 7)(2)

                                     = 70 cm³

⇒ Volume of Figure B = (13 · 7)(2)

                                     = 182 cm³

⇒ Total Volume = Volume of Figure A + Volume of Figure B

                           = 70 + 182

                           = 252 cm³

The first statement is false.

<u>Rewritten statement</u>:

The volume of figure A can be found by multiplying (5 · 7)(2).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3><u>Question 2</u></h3>

⇒ Volume of rectangular prism = (15 · 15)(2)

                                                    = 450 mm³

⇒ Volume of central cube = 2³

                                            = (2 · 2 · 2)

                                            = 8 mm³

⇒ Total Volume = Volume of rectangular prism - Volume of cube

                           = 450 - 8

                           = 442 mm³

The third statement is false.

<u>Rewritten statement</u>:

The total volume of the figure is 442 mm³

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<h3><u>Question 3</u></h3>

⇒ Volume of rectangular prism = (12 · 3)(8)

                                                    = 288 in³

⇒ Volume of triangular prism = (1/2 · 12 · 6)(3)

                                                 = 108 in³

⇒ Total Volume = Volume of rectangular prism + Volume of triangular prism

                           = 288 + 108

                           = 396 in³

The second statement is false.

<u>Rewritten statement</u>:

The volume of the triangular prism is 108 in³
