Answer:

266.39mm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for surface area of a square based pyramid =

S.A = a² + 2a √a²/4 + h²

Where

a = base length = 8mm

s = Height of the pyramid = 12mm

Hence,

S.A = 8² + 2 × 8 × √8²/4 + 12²

S.A = 64 + 16 ×√64/4 + 144

S.A = 80 × √16 + 144

S.A = 80 × √160

S.A = 266.39 mm²

Therefore, the surface area of a square pyramid is 266.39 mm²

Vilka [71]

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for arc length [for the angle in degrees] is:

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

here,

$n$ = degrees

$r$ = radius

using this we'll solve all the parts:

r = 10, n = 20:

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

$L = 2\pi (10) \left(\dfrac{20}{360}\right)$

from here, it is just simplification:

2 and 360 can be resolved: 360 divided by 2 = 180

$L = \pi (10) \left(\dfrac{20}{180}\right)$

10 and 180 can be resolved: 180 divided by 10 = 18

$L = \pi \left(\dfrac{20}{18}\right)$

finally, both 20 and 18 are multiples of 2 and can be resolved:

$L = \pi \left(\dfrac{10}{9}\right)$

$L = \dfrac{10\pi}{9}$ Option (E)

r=3, n=6:

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

$L = 2\pi (3) \left(\dfrac{6}{360}\right)$

$L = \dfrac{\pi}{10}$ Option (D)

r=4 n=7

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

$L = 2\pi (4) \left(\dfrac{7}{360}\right)$

$L = \dfrac{7\pi}{45}$ Option (C)

r=2 n=x

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

$L = 2\pi (2) \left(\dfrac{x}{360}\right)$

$L = \dfrac{x\pi}{90}$ Option (D)

r=y n=x

$L = 2\pi r \left(\dfrac{n}{360}\right)$

$L = 2\pi (y) \left(\dfrac{x}{360}\right)$

$L = \dfrac{xy\pi}{180}$ Option (E)

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

The correct answer is E. Neither the frequency nor the wavelength is affected. Explanation: The wave frequency does not affect the speed of that wave. An increase in frequency of a wave causes a decrease in wavelength while the wave speed remains the constant. The speed of the waves is significantly higher at higher tensions.
