Answer:

Part A

The volume of the triangular prism is 500 cm³

Part B

The total surface area of the prism is approximately 441.42 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given details are;

The dimensions of the side length of the cube, s = 10 cm

The shape the cube was cut across to obtain = A prism

Part A

Whereby the prism obtained is a triangular prism, we have;

The cube can be cut in half to form a triangular prism

The volume of each triangular prism obtained = (1/2) × The volume of the cube

∴ The volume of the triangular prism = (1/2) × (10 cm)³ = 500 cm³

Part B

The height of the prism, h = 10 cm × sin(45°) = 5·√2 cm = (1/2) × The base width of the prism

The triangular cross sectional area of the prism, A₁ = 5·√2 × 5·√2 = 50

The square cross sectional area, A₂  = 10 × 10 = 100

The cross sectional area of the base, A₃ = 10·√2 × 10 = 100·√2

The total surface area of the prism, A = 2·A₁ + 2·A₂ + A₃

∴ A = 2×50 + 2×100 + 100·√2 = 300 + 100·√2 ≈ 441.42

The total surface area of the prism, A ≈ 441.42 cm²

Simplify the trigonometric expression.
Natasha_Volkova [10]
First we are going to find the common denominator of both fractions. To do that, we are going to multiply their denominators:
(1+sin \alpha )(1-sin \alpha )=1-sin^2 \alpha

Now we can rewrite our expression using the common denominator:
\frac{1-sin \alpha }{1-sin^2 \alpha } + \frac{1+sin \alpha }{1-sin^2 \alpha} = \frac{2}{1-sin^2 \alpha}

Finally, we can use the trig identities: 1-sin^2 \alpha =cos^2 \alpha and sec \alpha = \frac{1}{cos \alpha } to simplify our trig expression:
\frac{2}{cos^2\alpha}=2sec^2 \alpha

We can conclude that the correct answer is the fourth one.

Simplify the expression by using a double-angle formula or a half-angle formula. (a) 2 tan(5°) 1 − tan2(5°)
antoniya [11.8K]

The question is related to trigonometry and we have to use the formula of double angle .

Here we use double angle formula of tangent function which is

tan(2x) = \frac{2tan(x)}{1-tan^2(x)}

Given expression is

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}

Comparing it with double angle formula, we will get x = 5

SO the required expression is equal to

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}  =tan(2*5 )

\frac{2tan (5 \degree)}{1-tan^2(5 \degree)}  =tan(10 )

So the answer is tan(10) .

Y = -5x + 15 2x + y = 12
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

x = 1, y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -5x + 15 --- Equation 1

2x + y = 12 --- Equation 2

Substitute y = -5x + 15 into Equation 2:

2x + y = 12

2x - 5x + 15 = 12

Evaluate like terms.

15 - 3x = 12

Isolate -3x.

-3x = 12 - 15

Evaluate like terms.

-3x = -3

Find x.

x = -3 ÷ -3

x = 1

Substitute x = 1 into Equation 2:

2x + y = 12

2(1) + y = 12

2 + y = 12

Isolate y.

y = 12 - 2

y = 10

ASAP! GIVING BRAINLIEST! Please read the question THEN answer correctly! No guessing. Show your work or give an explaination.
pentagon [3]

Answer:

D. f(x)=4x^{2}+1

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a translation 1 point up along the y axis and a compression of 4.

Moving a function up (let's use <em>h</em> for the amount of points up) would change the function as so:

f(x)=x^{2} +h

Meanwhile, the compression would modify x in this case. You can eliminate any answers (A. and B.) that have no modification to x, and eliminate C., as a fraction modification would actually widen the graph instead of compress it.

Hope this helps! :]
