Answer:
a) Surface area = 616 cm²
b) Volume = V = 1083 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface area and volume of a regular triangular pyramid that has a base edge of 16 cm and a slant height of 15 cm
a) Formula for surface area = Base area × 1/2(perimeter × slant height)
Base area = Base edge²
=( 16 cm)² = 256 cm²
Perimeter = Base edge × 3
= 16 cm × 3 = 48 cm
Hence:
Surface Area = 256 cm² + 1/2(48 × 15)
= 256 cm² + 360 cm²
= 616 cm²
b) Volume = 1/3 × Base area × Height
1082.758616785cm³
Approximately = 1083 cm³
Answer:
88
Step-by-step explanation:
44 / 0.5 = 44*2 = 88
In order to determine the number of pens present in the container, we need to set up equations from the given in the problem statement. We do as follows:
let x the number of pencils
y the number of pens
From the statement, 9 more pencils then pens in a container,
x = y + 9
From the statement, there are 25 writing utensils in the container in all,
x + y = 25
We use substitution method to calculate for x and y,
y + 9 + y = 25
2y = 16
y = 8
x = 17
Therefore, there are 8 pens in the container and 17 pencils.
A number that is not a whole number.
Answer:
Use the Pythagorean theorem for right triangles to solve this
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 where 'a' and 'b' are the legs of the triangle and 'c' is the hypotenuse
so:
8^2 + b^2 = 17^2 solve for the second leg, b
64 + b^2 = 289
b^2 = 289 - 64= 225
b = 15
