Answer:

Options C and E

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A. Circle

We can't get a cross section in the form of a circle.

Option B. Cube

We can't get a cross section in the form of a cube.

Option C. Rectangle

When we slice a rectangular pyramid parallel to the base but not through the vertex, we get a Rectangle.

Option D. Square

We can not get a square by slicing a rectangular pyramid.

Option E. Triangle

By slicing a rectangular pyramid perpendicular to the base and passing through the vertex we can get the cross section in the form of triangle.

Options C and E will be the answer.

Which of these sets could represent the side lengths of a right triangle?

Jlenok [28]

Answer:

{6, 8, 10} is a set which represents the side length of a right triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle:

$(Base)^{2} + (Perpendicular)^{2} = (Hypotenuse)^{2}$

Now, in the given triplets:

(a) {4, 8, 12}

Here, $(4)^{2} + (8)^{2} = 16 + 64 = 80\\\implies H = \sqrt{80} = 8.94$

So, third side of the triangle 8.94 ≠ 12

Hence, {4, 8, 12} is NOT a triplet.

(b) {6, 8, 10}

Here, $(6)^{2} + (8)^{2} = 36 + 64 = 100\\\implies H = \sqrt{100} = 10$

So, third side of the triangle 10

Hence, {6, 8, 10} is a triplet.

Here, $(6)^{2} + (8)^{2} = 36 + 64 = 100\\\implies H = \sqrt{100} = 10$

So, third side of the triangle 10 ≠ 15

Hence, {6, 8, 15} is NOT a triplet.

(d) {5, 7, 13}

Here, $(5)^{2} + (7)^{2} = 25 + 49 = 74\\\implies H = \sqrt{74} = 8.60$

So, third side of the triangle 8.60 ≠ 13

Hence, {5, 7, 13} is NOT a triplet.
