Why do we use cubic units and not square units to find the the volume of solid figures ?

Mathematics

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.

What formula should be used to find the circumference of a circle
Inessa05 [86]
The circumference = π x the diameter of the circle (Pi multiplied by the diameter of the circle). Simply divide the circumference by π and you will have the length of the diameter. The diameter is just the radius times two, so divide the diameter by two and you will have the radius of the circle

What is the value of x in the diagram?
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

here 50 is hypotenuse as it is opposite of 90 degree.

x and x + 10 are the two other smaller sides of a right angled triangle respectively.

using pythagoras theorem,

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + (x + 10)^2 = 50^2

x^2 + x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500

2x^2 + 20x + 100 = 2500

2x^2 + 20x + 100 - 2500 = 0

2x^2 + 20x - 2400 = 0

2(x^2 + 10x - 1200) = 0

x^2 + 10x - 1200 = 0

x^2 + (40 - 30) - 1200 = 0

x^2 + 40x - 30x - 1200 = 0

x(x + 40) - 30(x + 40x) = 0

(x + 40)(x - 30) = 0

either x + 40 = 0          OR x - 30 = 0

x = 0 - 40

x = -40

x - 30 = 0

x = 30

x = -40,30

since the length and distance is not measured in negative ur answer will be 30
