A: REAL, RATIONAL, INTERGER, WHOLE, NATURAL, OR COUNTING
Answer:
12a. 471.2 cm²
12b. 60 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A.
The surface area of each figure is the sum of the end area and the lateral area.
<u>cylinder</u>
S = (2)(πr²) +2πrh = 2πr(r +h)
S = 2π(5 cm)(5 cm +10 cm) =150π cm² ≈ 471.2 cm²
__
<u>triangular prism</u>
S = (2)(1/2)bh + PL . . . . b=triangle base; h=triangle height; P=triangle perimeter; L=length of prism
S = (4 m)(1.5 m) + ((4 + 2·2.5) m)(6 m) = (6 + 54) m² = 60 m²
_____
Part B.
Surface area is useful in the real world wherever products are made from sheets of material or wherever coverings are applied.
Carpeting or other flooring, paint, wallpaper are all priced in terms of the area they cover, for example.
The amount of material used to make containers in the shapes shown will depend on the area of these containers (and any material required for seams).
There are 2001 items in that set.
So n(A) = 2001
We can individually count them all out, which is very slow and tedious, or we can use the formula
n-m+1
where,
m = starting value
n = ending value
In this case,
m = 0
n = 2000
So,
n-m+1 = 2000-0+1 = 2001
This formula only works if we increase the number by 1 each time (eg: 6, 7, 8, etc)
