Answer:
1. The amount of ice needed for the sculpture is 18 m³
2. The amount of fabric needed to manufacture the umbrella is 0.757 m²
3. The height of the cone is 37.5 cm
4. The largest possible storage area which is obtained by attaching the storage area to the back of the building is 87.11 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The volume, V, of a rectangular pyramid =
Where:
B = Base area = Length, L × Width, W
h = Height of the pyramid = 3.6 m
L = 5 m
W = 3 m
The volume = 1/3 × 5 × 3 × 3.6 = 18 m³
The amount of ice needed for the sculpture is 18 m³
2) The surface area of a cone = π·r·s
s = Slant height
r = Radius of the cone's base = 0.4 m
h = The height of the cone = 0.45m
s = √(0.4² + 0.45²) = (√145)/20
The surface area of the cone = π × 0.4 × (√145)/20 = 0.757 m²
The amount of fabric needed to manufacture the umbrella is 0.757 m²
3) The volume, V of the cone = 150 cm³
The base area, , of the cone = 12 cm²
The height of the cone = h
We note that the volume of a cone =
Therefore;
4·h = 150
h = 150/4 = 37.5 cm
The height of the cone = 37.5 cm
4) The storage area at the back corner with four sides = 100 m²
The storage area at the back of the building with three sides = 98 m²
Given that the available riling = 28 m, we have;
For maximum area the four sides should be equal, hence dimension of each side = 28/4 = 7
The area of storage space that can be fenced on four sides at the back corner = 7 × 7 = 49 m²
At the back of the building only three sides need fencing, we therefore have;
The side length = 28/3 =
The area fenced = = 87.11 m²
Therefore, the largest possible storage area, 87.11 m², is obtained by attaching the storage area to the back of the building.
