Significant figures tells us that about how may digits we can count on to be precise given the uncertainty in our calculations or data measurements.
Since, one inch = 2.54 cm.
This is equivalent as saying that 1.0000000.. inch = 2.540000... cm.
Since the inch to cm conversion doesn't add any uncertainty, so we are free to keep any and all the significant figures.
Since, being an exact number, it has an unlimited number of significant figures and thus when we convert inch to cm we multiply two exact quantities together. Therefore, it will have infinite number of significant figures.
Answer:
(a) = 11 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for finding the surface area of a regular pyramid is B + (1/2*P*l), with B being the area of the base, p being the perimeter of the base, and l being the slant of the pyramid.
The area of a pentagon can be solved using the formula 1/2*a*p, with a being the apothem and p being the perimeter of the pentagon.
- B + (1/2*80*15) = 1040
- B + 600 = 1040
- 1040 - 600 = 440 (440 is the area of pentagon)
- 1/2*a*(16*5) = 440
- 40*a = 440
- 440/40 = 11
The apothem is 11 cm. Hope this helps!
The right answer is 18.8333333... Or 18 7.5/9
Answer:
1229 km
Step-by-step explanation:
The missing angle is ...
180° -60° -75° = 45°
Knowing that, the Law of Sines can be used to find the side opposite the 75° angle.
?/sin(75°) = 900 km/sin(45°)
? = (900 km)sin(75°)/sin(45°) ≈ 1229.423 km
The UFO is about 1229 km from KA-12.
By doing base times area that is what I will do
