Answer:

8.2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Since AD is equal to DB, we will need to set 3x-11 equal to 5x-29. When you solve the equation you will get 9 for x.

2. Plug the 9 in for x in DB (you could plug it in for AD instead if you want since DB and AD are equal to each other). You should get 16.

3. Take a look at the smaller triangle DBP which is part of triangle ABC. We will need to use the Pythagorean Theorem. Square the legs of the triangle and set it equal to the hypotenuse squared. One of the legs, DP, is unknown so we will just have it as x. The other leg is DB, which is 16.

* PB is the hypotenuse and has a value of 18. Remember that P is the circumcenter, which means it is equidistant to each vertex and each angle bisector is equal to each other. As a result PC is equal to PB which happens to be 18.

You should have it something like this:

16^2 + x^2 = 18^2

Now do all the squaring and stuff and you should eventually get x^2 = 68

4. Square root x^2 = 68 and you will get a long decimal. You will need to round it to the tenths place.

5. After rounding you will finally get 8.2

Which expression represents the volume, in cubic
muminat

Given:

The composite figure.

To find:

The volume of the given composite figure.

Solution:

Given composite figure contains a cuboid and a pyramid.

Length, breadth and height of the cuboid are 8, 6 and 4 respectively.

Volume of a cuboid is

V_1=length\times breadth\times height

V_1=(8)(6)(4)

Length and breadth of the pyramid is same as the cuboid, i.e., 8 and 6 respectively.

Height of pyramid = 10 - 4 = 6

Volume of a pyramid is

V_2=\dfrac{1}{3}\times length\times breadth\times height

V_2=(\dfrac{1}{3})(8)(6)(6)

The volume of composite figure is

V=V_1+V_2

V=(8)(6)(4)+(\dfrac{1}{3})(8)(6)(6)

It can be written as

V=(\dfrac{1}{3})(8)(6)(6)+(8)(6)(4)

Therefore, the correct option is A.
