A square pyramid has 4 triangles and the square base.

Calculate the area of one triangle, multiply that by 4 then add the area of the base.

Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 5 x 12 = 30 square yards.

30 x 4 = 120 square yards

Area of base = 5 x 5 = 25 square yards

Total = 120 + 25 = 145 square yards.

Find the distance from point A(−9,−3) to the line y = x−6. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

The distance from point A(−9,−3) to the line y = x−6 is 8.5 units

<u>What is slope ?</u>

A line's steepness is determined by its slope. In mathematics, slope is determined by "rise over run" (change in y divided by change in x).

step 1

Find the slope of the perpendicular line to the given line

y=x-6 ---> given line

The slope is m=1

Remember that

If two lines are perpendicular, then their slopes are opposite reciprocal (the product of their slopes is equal to -1)

m1*m2 = -1

we have

m1=1

substitute

(1)*m2 = -1

so

m2 = -1

step 2

Find the equation of the perpendicular line to the given line

The equation in point slope form is

y-y1=m(x-x1)

we have

m=-1

(x1,y1)=(−9,−3)

substitute

y+3=-1(x+9)--> equation in point slope form

y+3= -x-9

y= -x-12---> equation in slope intercept form

step 3

Find the intersection point between the given line and the perpendicular line to the given line

we have the system of equations

y = x−6.

y= -x-12

Solve the system by graphing

The intersection point is (-3,-9)

see the attached figure

step 4

we know that

The distance between the point A and the point (-3,-9) is the same that the distance between point A and the line y=x-6

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=√[(y2-y1)² + (x2-x1)²]

substitute the values

d=√[(-9+3)² + (-3+9)²]

d= √72 units

simplify

d= 6√2 = 8.5 units
