Answer:
He confused the height and diameter
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
The radius of the cylinder, r = 2.5 cm
Height of the cylinder, h = 24 cm
The volume of the cylinder is given by the formula as follows :
Vaughn is confused in diameter and the height of the cylinder. He takes radius as 12 cm and height as 5 cm which is wrong. Hence, the correct option is (a).
a) Proof by contradiction is different from traditional proof as it accepts a single example showing that a statement is false, instead of having the need to derive a general relationship for all input values.
b) The statement is true by contradiction as the sum of the measures is of 160º, and not 180º.
<h3>What are supplementary angles?</h3>
Two angles are called supplementary angles if the sum of their measures has a value of 180º.
The measures of the angles in this problem are given as follows:
Then the sum of the measures of this angles is given as follows:
90 + 70 = 160º.
Which is a different sum of 160º, confirming the statement that the angles are not supplementary by contradiction.
