9514 1404 393

Answer:

  FH = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔGHE is a 5-12-13 triangle.

ΔEHF is a 3-4-5 triangle with a scale factor of 4, so side FH is 4·4 = 16 units.

_____

(3, 4, 5), (5, 12, 13), (7, 24, 25), (8, 15, 17) are all commonly used Pythagorean triples. The first two on the list are used in these triangles.

If you like, you can work out the numbers using the Pythagorean theorem, which tells you the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.

For ΔEHG, that is ...

  GE² = EH² + HG²

  13² = EH² + 5²

  EH² = 13² -5² = 169 -25 = 144

And for ΔEHF, ...

  FE² = EH² +HF²

  20² = 144 + HF²

  400 -144 = HF² = 256

  HF = √256 = 16

The length of side FH is 16 units.

Polly made a pinata for her sister's birthday party and wants to fill it with candy. If
devlian [24]

Answer:

The volume of candy that is needed by Polly is 1,437.3 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have to do here is to find the volume of the sphere with a diameter of 14 inches

If the diameter is 14 inches, then the radius is 14/2 = 7 inches

This is because the radius is half the measure of the diameter

To find the volume of the sphere, we use the formula below;

Volume of sphere

= 4/3 * pi * r^3

pi = 22/7

r = 7 inches

Volume is;

4/3 * 22/7 * 7^3

= 4/3 * 22 * 7^2 = 1437.3 cubic inches
