vampirchik [111]

The surface area of the monument shaped like a square pyramid is 14 m².

Area is the amount of space that is occupied by a two dimensional shape or object.

From the diagram

Area of each triangle = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 2 * 2.5 = 2.5 m²

Area of square = length * length = 2 m * 2 m = 4 m²

Surface area of monument = 4(2.5) + 4 = 14 m²

The surface area of the monument shaped like a square pyramid is 14 m².

Number of white roses = 4

Number of red roses = 8

To find:

The ratio of the number of red roses to the number of white roses.

Solution:

Using the given information, the ratio of the number of red roses to the number of white roses is

$\text{Required ratio}=\dfrac{\text{Number of red roses}}{\text{Number of white roses}}$

$\text{Required ratio}=\dfrac{8}{4}$

$\text{Required ratio}=\dfrac{2}{1}$

$\text{Required ratio}=2:1$

Therefore, the required ratio is 2:1.
