Answer: 3 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The base of the triangle is 3\frac{2}{5}\ inches

The area of the triangle is 5\frac{1}{10}\ inches^2

Solve mixed fraction

Base is

=3\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\=\dfrac{17}{5}\ in.

Area is

=5\dfrac{1}{10}\\\\=\dfrac{51}{10}\ in.^2

The area of the triangle is given by

\Rightarrow \text{Area A=}\dfrac{1}{2}\times \text{base}\times \text{height}

Insert the values to get the height

\Rightarrow \dfrac{51}{10}=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{17}{5}\times \text{height}\\\\\Rightarrow \text{height}=3\ in.

Identify the area of the kite. HELP ASAP PLEASE!!
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

2340 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of kite = multiply the lengths of the two diagonals and divide by 2

The top left triangle:

Using Pythagorean theorem:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

so

b^2 = c^2 - a^2

b^2 = 51^2 - 24^2

b^2 = 2601 - 576

b^2 = 2025

b = 45

Top right triangle:

Using Pythagorean theorem:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2

so

b^2 = c^2 - a^2

b^2 = 53^2 - 45^2

b^2 = 2809 - 2025

b^2 = 784

b = 28

so  the two diagonals:

24 + 28 = 52 m and 45 + 45 = 90 m

Area of the kite:

A = 52 x 90 / 2

A = 2340 m^2

Flauer [41]
10) 1 gallon of water for every inch of the fish's body length.
a) 2 1/2 inches long fish needs 2 1/2 gallon of water.
b) tank: l = 7 inches ; w = 5 inches; h = 7 ; volume = 7in * 5in * 7in = 245 in³
c) no. her fish tank is not large enough for the fish.
volume of 1 gallon of water is 231 in³, water needed is 2 1/2 gallon, so 5/2 * 231 in³ = 577.50 in³ volume.

11) volume = 7in * 3.5in * 1.75 in = 42.875 in³ 
weight of the brick = 0.1 pound per cubic inch ⇒ 42.875 in³ * 0.1 lb = 4.2875 pounds
weight of the gold bar = 0.7 pound per cubic inch ⇒ 42.875 in³ * 0.7 lb = 30.0125 pounds

12) l = 55cm ; w = 40cm ; h = 30 cm
volume = 55cm * 40cm * 30cm = 66,000 cm³
