A candy store called "Sugar" built a giant hollow sugar cube out of wood to hang above the entrance to their store. It took 13.5
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

\frac{27}{8}m^3 or 3.375m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for volume is Base * Height * Width; and the formula for area is Base * Height.

This problem mentions the structure is a cube and therefore it is assumed that every wall has the same area. Since there are 6 sides to a cube you divide the total amount of ft which make up this cube to know the area to each wall.

13.5 m/6 = 2.25 or \frac{9}{4} m per wall

With the area of each wall you can find the base and height:

base * height =  area

b=\sqrt{\frac{9}{4} } = \frac{3}{2}

base = \frac{3}{2}m

height = \frac{3}{2}m

since: base=height=width, the width also equals \frac{3}{2}m

volume = (\frac{3}{2})^3= \frac{27}{8}

Given that cos 63°≈ 0.454, enter the sine of a complementary angle.<br> sin
jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

\cos(63^\circ) is the same as \sin(27^\circ) by co-function identities

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that complementary angles add up to 90°. The angle that i s complementary to 63° is 27°.

Also recall the co-function identities:

  • sin (90° – x) = cos x
  • cos (90° – x) = sin x

This means that \cos(90^\circ-27^\circ)=\sin(27^\circ)\approx0.454.
