It has to do with the number of dimensions you have in the figure. For example, in a square you have 2 dimensions, length and width. Since you have only two you use units^2. In a cube, you have 3 dimensions, length, width and height, which is where you get the units^3.

Line segment W Y is an altitude in triangle WXZ.

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

∠ XWZ is a right angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

See the given diagram.

In triangle WXZ, WY is an altitude.

So, ∠ WYZ = ∠ XYW = 90°

Now, given that ∠ ZWY = ∠ WXY.

Now, from Δ XYW, since, ∠ XYW = 90° so, ∠ WXY + ∠ YWX = 90° ....... (1)

⇒ ∠ ZWY + ∠ YWX = 90° {Since, ∠ ZWY = ∠ WXY}

⇒ ∠ XWZ = 90°

Therefore, the angle XWZ is right angle. (Answer)

How much sugar syrup would you get by Making 5% sugar syrup using 6g sugar?

kherson [118]

Answer: 120 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of sugar syrup made by 5% sugar syrup using 6g sugar.

Also, 5% =0.05

Therefore, 5% sugar syrup =5% of x = 0.05x

According to the question, we have

$0.05x=6\\\text{Divide 0.05 on the both sides we get}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{6}{0.05}\\\Rightarrow\ x=\frac{600}{5}\\\Rightarrow\ x=120$

Hence, 120 grams sugar syrup is made by 5% sugar syrup of 6g sugar.
