Answer:
20√3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Altitude of an equilateral triangle splits it into 2 equal right triangles, it bisects the base and the angle opposite to the base.
<u>Let the altitude be x. Then as per Pythagorean theorem:</u>
- x² = 40² - (40/2)²
- x²= 1600 -400
- x²= 1200
- x= √1200
- x= 20√3 cm
<u>Correct choice is</u> the second one
Answer:
w=4
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a prism is SA= 2lw+2lh+2hw
We are trying to find out the width if the SA is 240 square inches, length is 12 inches, and the height is 5 inches. Let's plug these numbers into the equation.
240=(2*12*w)+(2*12*5)+(2*5*w)
24w+120+10w
240= 34w+120
-120 -120
120= 34w
120/34 = 34w/34
w is approximately equal to 3.5 which can be rounded to 4
w=4
Hope this is right! It was confusing at first but I understood it!
