Answer:

1. 15.9

2. 12

3. 7.29

4. 20.8

5. 11.0

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for x (a squared minus b squared equals c squared)

Example number 1 is solved by 17 squared - 6 squared equals 253

You do square root and get 15.90

Number 4 is you have to divide 24 by 2 because it is one of the sides

So it is 24 squared minus 12 squared

You find square root and get 20.80

The bar of the square pyramid shown has and area of 576 units. If the slant height of the pyramid is 29 units, what is the heigh

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

$\sqrt{697}$

Step-by-step explanation:

If the base of the square pyramid has an area of 576 units, then the side length must have a length of $\sqrt{576}=24$ . 24/2=12, and using the pythagorean theorem you can find that the height of the pyramid is $\sqrt{29^2-12^2}=\sqrt{697}$ . Hope this helps!

Find the coordinate of point P that lies along the directed line segment from A (3, 4) to B (6, 10) and partitions the segment i

AveGali [126]

$\bf \left. \qquad \right.\textit{internal division of a line segment}
\\\\\\
A(3,4)\qquad B(6,10)\qquad
\qquad 3:2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{AP}{PB} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies \cfrac{A}{B} = \cfrac{3}{2}\implies 2A=3B\implies 2(3,4)=3(6,10)\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
{ P=\left(\cfrac{\textit{sum of "x" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{\textit{sum of "y" values}}{\textit{sum of ratios}}\right)}\\\\
-------------------------------$

$\bf P=\left(\cfrac{(2\cdot 3)+(3\cdot 6)}{3+2}\quad ,\quad \cfrac{(2\cdot 4)+(3\cdot 10)}{3+2}\right)
\\\\\\
P=\left( \cfrac{6+18}{5}~~,~~\cfrac{8+30}{5} \right)\implies \left( \cfrac{24}{5}~~,~~\cfrac{38}{5} \right)\implies \left( 4\frac{4}{5}~~,~~7\frac{3}{5} \right)$
