Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola

the parabola is open down with vertex at (0,2)
We can find that the rectangle also will be symmetrical about y axis.
Let the vertices on x axis by (p,0) and (-p,0)
Then other two vertices would be (p,2-p^2) (-p,2-p^2) because the vertices lie on the parabola and satisfy the parabola equation
Now width = 
Area = l*w = 
Use derivative test
I derivative = 
II derivative = 
Equate I derivative to 0 and consider positive value only since we want maximum
p = 
Thus width= 
Length =
Width = 
Answer:

Answer:
1. SSS
2. Q and S
3. 20
Step-by-step explanation:
1. SSS similarity: If the corresponding sides of two triangles are proportional, then the two triangles are similar.
Triangles NLM and WUV are similar by SSS similarity, because

2. Completed steps:
a) draw a circle with center at P and radius r
b) draw a circle with center at Q and radius r
c) using compass, measure the distance between two points of intersection of the first circle with angle rays
d) using point of intersection of the second circle with PQ as a center, draw the circle of radius equal to the distance from c) to get point S
Last step: connect points Q and S, line QS will be parallel to line r.
3. If lines MN and UT are parallel, then angles MUT and VMN are congruent; also angles UTN and MNV are congruent.
AA similarity: In two triangles, if two pairs of corresponding angles are congruent, then the triangles are similar .
By AA similarity, triangles VMN and VUT are similar, thus

Answer: 1618 cm^2
The formula to find surface area of a cuboid is 2(ab + bc + ca)
2(19*3.5 + 3.5*33 + 33*19)
--> 1618
