Answer:

D) y =   -2

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is  y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:-</em></u>

Given point (-3,-2)

In graph the equation of line  x = 8 ( parallel to y- axis )

                              1 x + o y - 8 =0

The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line  

                        b x - a y + k =0

                       o x - 1 y + k =0 ...(i)

The equation (i) is Paases through the point ( -3,-2)

                        0 ( -3) -1(-2) + k =0

                               2 + k =0

                                     k = -2

∴<em>The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line  is </em>

<em>      put k = -2 in equation (i)    </em>

                        o x - 1 y + k =0

                      - y +(-2) =0

                       - y = 2

                         y = -2

<u><em>Final answer:-</em></u>

∴The equation of the perpendicular line to the given line is  y =-2

Assuming the volume of a trigonal prism, who has a side of 10cm and a length of 20 cm, is 866cm^3, what is its surface area?
Leno4ka [110]

The surface area of the triangular prism is 686.6 cm².

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

The volume of a triangular prism can be determined by multiplying its area of the triangular base with the length of the prism.

The base triangle has a base length of 10 cm and assume it has a height of h m.

The volume of the prism= \frac{1}{2} (b)(h) (length) = \frac{1}{2} (10)(h)(20) = 866.

h = \frac{866(2)}{10(20)} = 8.66.

The height of the triangle is 8.66 cm.

Step 2:

The surface area of the triangle is obtained by adding all the areas of the shapes in the prism. There are 2 triangles and 3 rectangles in a triangular prism.

The triangles have a base length of 10 cm and a height of 8.66 cm. A triangles area is half the product of its base length and height.

The rectangles all have a length of 20 cm and a width of 10 cm. The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width.

The area of the 2 triangles = 2 [\frac{1}{2} (10)(8.66)] = 86.6.

The area of the 3 rectangle = 3[(20)(10)] = 600.

Step 3:

The surface area of the triangular prism = 86.6 + 600 = 686.6.

The surface area of the prism is 686.6 cm².

Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

3600 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

because each inch in the model is 300 feet in real life, you do 12 times 300 ft and you get 3600 ft
