Answer:

Surface area of the triangular prism = 186.984 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the triangular prism is given by the expression,

Surface area = (Perimeter of the triangular base)×Height + Area of the triangular bases

Perimeter of the triangular base = (9.8 + 8.5 + 6.2)

= 24.5 ft

Height of the prism = 5.5 ft

Area of the triangular base = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{Height})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(5.33)$

= 26.117 square feet

Surface area of the prism = (24.5 × 5.5) + (26.117 × 2)

= 134.75 + 52.234

= 186.984 square feet

The length of the diagonal of a wooden cube is 24 cm. The cube is cut into the cylinder of the

jek_recluse [69]

The biggest possible volume of the cylinder will be $2089.497\hspace{1mm}\text{cm}^3$ .

<h3>What will be the diameter and height of the cylinder obtained from a cube and what are the formulas for the diagonal of a cube and the volume of a cylinder?</h3>

If a cylinder with the biggest possible volume is cut inside the cube, the height of the cylinder and the diameter of the cylinder will be equal to the side length of the cube.
For example, consider the following figure in which the cylinder is cut inside of the cube and since the side length of the cube is $x$ , the diameter and the height of the cylinder are also $x$
If the side length of a cube is $x$ unit, then its diagonal will be $x\sqrt{3}$ unit.
The formula for the volume of a cylinder is $V=\pi r^2h$ , where $r$ is the radius and $h$ is the height of the cylinder. If $d$ is the diameter, then $r=\frac{d}{2}$ .

Now, given that the diagonal of the cube is $24$ cm. So, if the side length of the cube is $x$ cm, then we must have

$x\sqrt{3}=24\\\Longrightarrow x=\frac{24}{\sqrt{3}}\\\Longrightarrow x=8\sqrt{3}$

Thus, the side length of the cube is $8\sqrt{3}$ cm.

So, the height of the cylinder with maximum volume will be $h=8\sqrt{3}$ cm and the diameter will be $d=8\sqrt{3}$ cm i.e. the radius will be $r=\frac{d}{2}=\frac{8\sqrt{3}}{2}=4\sqrt{3}$ cm.
