Answer:

Answer

sqrt(108)

6 sqrt(3)

10.3923

I don't know which answer you  want.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Drop a perpendicular from the top angle to the base.
  • The base is cut into 2 equal parts.
  • Each part is 12/2 = 6
  • The perpendicular, as its name implies, meets the base at 90o.
  • You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the height.

h^2 = side^2 - (1/2 b)^2

h^2 = 12^2 - 6^2

h^2 = 144 - 36

h^2 = 108

Take the square root of both sides

h = sqrt(108)

h = sqrt(2*2 * 3 * 3 * 3)

h = 2 * 3 sqrt(3)

h = 6sqrt(3)

h = 6 * 1.7321

h = 10.3923

The prime factor of 180
alisha [4.7K]

Answer: 5*2*2*3*3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you divide 180 by 2 and you get 90. Then you proceed to divide that by 2 again and get 45. You will then divide 45 by 3 to get 15. Then divide 15 by 3 again and get 5, which cannot be divided any smaller.

180/2=90

90/2=45

45/3=15

15/3=5

Find the area of this irregular polygon.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

970m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

This polygon can be divided in two figures: one is a triangle, an the other one is a square.

We'll begin calculating the triangle's area, using the following formula:

At= \frac{b.h}{2}

Where:

H= height = 30 m

B = 9 m + 9 m + 20 m = 38 m

As you can see, I added both sides of the triangle that measure 9 m and also the lenght of the square that measures 20 m! This added up is what the base of the triangle measures on total.

At= \frac{38 m .30 m}{2}

At= \frac{1140 m^{2} }{2}

At= 570 m^{2}

Now we are going to calculate the square's area, that is much more simple:

As= L^{2}

Where:

L=20 m

As= (20 m)^{2} = 400m^{2}

To know the whole figure's area, we add up both areas:

A = At+As = 570m^{2} +400m^{2}=970m^{2}
