Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Height (h₁) of one square pyramid = 12 m
A similar pyramid has a height h₂ = 6 m
(a)  Therefore scale factor of smaller pyramid to the larger pyramid =  =
 =  =  1 : 2
 =  1 : 2
(f)   Since ratio of the sides of smaller to larger pyramid is 1 : 2
so ratio of area of the bases =  =
 = 
 =
 = 
(g)  Ratio of volume of smaller to larger pyramid
 =
 =  =
 = 
(h)  Since  =
 =  and V₁ = 400 m³
 and V₁ = 400 m³
So   =
 =  ⇒
 ⇒  =
 = 
V₂ =  = 50 m³
 = 50 m³
 
                                
             
                    
              
              
                
                
Since the smaller pyramid's height is  6 and the larger pyramid's height is 12, the scale factor is 6/12=1/2
The scale factor for the base would be (1/2)^2 (since we're multiplying the sides, and each of them has a scale factor of 1/2)=1/4
For the volume, since we add another side with scale factor 1/2, we multiply 1/4 by 1/2 to get 1/8

Answer:
67°
Step-by-step explanation:
Angles on a straight line add to 180, so:
A + D = 180
D = 180 - A
D = 180 - 113
D = 67
 
        
             
        
        
        
A² + b² = c²
(√3)² + b² = 5²
3 + b² = 25
b ² = 22
b = √22
