C^2 = a^2 + b^2
26^2 = 10^2 + b^2
676 = 100 + b^2
576 = b^2
shortest side length = 24 units

Find the total area surface of figure

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

$92 \:cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Surface\:_{area}=2\times(\ell\times w +\ell \times h + w \times h)$

$=2\times(8 \times 2 +8 \times 3 + 2 \times 3)$

$=2 \times (16+24+6)$

$=2\times 46$

$=92\: cm^2$

The volume of the right triangular prism is 91.8ft. The height of the prism is 10.8ft. What is the area of each base? Show your

kaheart [24]

Answer:

8.5 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll use this right triangular prism volume formula: base area x height = volume

base area = ?

length = 10.8

volume = 91.8

base area x 10.8 = 91.8

Divide both sides by 10.8

base area x 10.8/10.8 = 91.8/10.8

base area = 8.5

A light bulb filament is one-hundredth of an inch thick, with an allowable error of 2 percent. What is the least allowable thick

Andreyy89

Answer:

0.00998 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Thickness of the light bulb filament = 0.01 Inch

Allowable error = 2%.

2% of 0.01 = 0.02 X 0.01 =0.0002 Inch

Therefore, the allowable thickness of the bulb filament

$=0.01 \pm 0.0002 $ Inches$

We can then calculate the least allowable thickness of the filament as:

$=0.01 - 0.0002 \\=0.00998$ Inches$

The least allowable thickness of the filament is 0.00998 Inches.
