Answer:
6.83 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the original pyramid be represented by h. Then the cut off top has a height of (h -2). The scale factor for the area is the square of the scale factor for height, so we have ...
(height ratio)^2 = 1/2
((h -2)/h)^2 = 1/2
(h -2)√2 = h . . . . . . square root; multiply by h√2
h(√2 -1) = 2√2 . . . . add 2√2 -h
h = (2√2)/(√2 -1) ≈ 6.8284 . . . units
The altitude of the original pyramid is about 6.83 units.
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
-3/4 - (-1/2) = - 1/4
-2/3 - 5/6 = - 3/2
-1/4 ÷ -3/2
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
She needs 3 bananas for each loaf of banana bread.
She needs 3*9=27 bananas for 9 loaves.
She has only 25, she is 2 bananas short
The tangent function gives the ratio of vertical to horizontal distance in this case.
.. vertical distance = (horizontal distance)*tan(angle of depression)
.. = (40 m)*tan(50°)
.. vertical distance ≈ 47.7 m
I think that the answer to the question is b
