The triangle <span>pyramid</span> is made up of 4 triangles.
------------------------------------
Formula:
------------------------------------
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
------------------------------------
Area of the bottom triangle:
------------------------------------
Area = 1/2 x 9 x 7.8
Area = 35.1 yd²
------------------------------------
Area of the 3 side triangles:
------------------------------------
Area = 3 [ 1/2 x 9 x 10 ]
Area = 135 yd²
------------------------------------
Total Area:
------------------------------------
Total Area = 135 + 35.1
Total Area = 170.1 yd²
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Surface Area = 170.1 yd².
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer:
9/20
Step-by-step explanation:
0.45=45/100=9/20
Answer:
37.8 yd^3
Step-by-step explanation:
base area = (4.5 x 2.8)/2 = 6.3 yd^2
Volume = 6.3 x 6 = 37.8 yd^3

========================================================
Explanation:

Note we subtract 3 off the previous term (t1) to get the next term (t2). Each new successive term is found this way

and so on. This process may take a while to reach 
There's a shortcut. The nth term of any arithmetic sequence is

We plug in
and simplify

Then we can plug in various positive whole numbers for n to find the corresponding
value. For example, plug in n = 2

which matches with the second term we found earlier. And,

---------------------
The notation
refers to the sum of the first ten terms 
We could use either the long way or the shortcut above to find all
through
. Then add those values up. Or we can take this shortcut below.

The sum of the first ten terms is -85
-----------------------
As a check for
, here are the first ten terms:
- t1 = 5
- t2 = 2
- t3 = -1
- t4 = -4
- t5 = -7
- t6 = -10
- t7 = -13
- t8 = -16
- t9 = -19
- t10 = -22
Then adding said terms gets us...
5 + 2 + (-1) + (-4) + (-7) + (-10) + (-13) + (-16) + (-19) + (-22) = -85
This confirms that
is correct.
