I need more information for help you answer this
Answer:
1296√3 cubic units
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of the prism will be the product of its base area and its height. Since it circumscribes a sphere with diameter 12, that is the height of the prism.
The central cross section of the sphere is a circle of radius 6, and that will be the size of the incircle of the base. That is, the base will have an altitude of 3 times that incircle radius, and an edge length of 2√3 times that incircle radius. Hence the area of the triangular base is ...
B = (1/2)(6×2√3)(6×3) = 108√3 . . . . . square units
The volume of the prism is then ...
V = Bh = (108√3)(12) = 1296√3 . . . cubic units

<em>Comment on the geometry</em>
The centroid of an equilateral triangle is also the incenter and the circumcenter. The distance of that center from any edge of the triangle is 1/3 the height of the triangle. So, for an inradius of 6, the triangle height is 3×6 = 18. The side length of an equilateral triangle is 2/√3 times the altitude, so is 12√3 units for this triangle.
The trig functions that you need to deal with are
Sine
Cosine
Tangent
Cotangent
Cosecant
Secant
You need to write a single expression using all six trig functions such that the value of the expression equals 3.
To make this as simple as possible, the first thing I would do is look up the values of these functions and identify which ones are equal to either 1/2 or 1.0 or 2.0
sin(30º) = 1/2
sin(90º) = 1
cos(0º) = 1
cos(60º) = 1/2
tan(45º) = 1
csc(30º) = 2
csc(90º) = 1
sec(0º) = 1
sec(60º) = 2
cot(45º) = 1
If we only had to use three trig functions (sin, cos, tan), one possibility is
tan(45º) + cos(0º)/sin(30º) = 1 + 1/(1/2) = 1 + 2 = 3
noticed how I chose one each of the required functions and the operations so that the result = 3.
Now it is up to you to figure out how to combine all six trig functions so that they equal zero. There are many possibilities for you to choose from..
No because there is no picture and circles
