Area is squared so divide 56/6 gives you 9.3 round down so length of base is 9 m.
Answer:
S = 85cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The surface area of a square pyramid is given by the following formula:

where it has taken into account the sum of the area of a square and four triangles:

h: slant height = 6cm
b: base = 5cm
By replacing in the formula you obtain:

hence, the surface area is 85cm^2
Answer:
45158
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the colony grows at a rate of 12%, after 2 years there will be
bacteria. Since you probably can't have part of a bacteria, you round to 45158.
Answer:
78 sqr units
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean Theorem to help find the base opposite the two.
The base of the second parallel line is sqrt( (15^2) - (12^2) ) = sqrt(81) = 9
The second base = 9 + 2 = 11
Area = (b1 + b2)*h/2
h = 12
b1 = 2
b2 = 11
h = 12
Area = (11 + 2)*12/2
Area = 13 * 12/2
Area = 78 square units
