Answer:

  • sides: 12 feet
  • front: 28 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of one side of the yard. Then the width of the yard is 2x+4, and the perimeter is ...

  P = 2(L +W) . . . . . . . . . . formula for perimeter of a rectangle

  80 = 2(x + (2x+4)) . . . . . with values from the problem filled in

  40 = 3x +4 . . . . . . . . divide by 2, collect terms

  36 = 3x . . . . . . . . . subtract 4

  12 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 3. This is the length of the side fence.

  2x +4 = 2(12) +4 = 28

The fence is 12 feet on the sides and 28 feet on the front. (Its total length is 52 feet.)

ASAP What is the lateral area of this regular octagonal pyramid?? Explain your answer if you can plz thanks
Archy [21]
The lateral area would be 298.7 cm².

The lateral area is the area of all of the lateral faces of the pyramid.  There are 8 triangles making up the lateral faces.  Each has a base of 6.6.  The formula for the area of a triangle is

A=1/2bh,

so we still need the height of the triangle.

The height of each lateral triangle is the slant height of the pyramid.  The slant height of the pyramid forms a right triangle with the height of the pyramid and the "radius" as it were of the pyramid.  Thus we use the Pythagorean theorem:

8²+8²=h²
64+64=h²
128=h²
√128=√(h²)
8√2 = h

Substituting this into our area formula we have:
A=1/2(6.6)(8√2)

We will go ahead and multiply this by 8, since there are 8 lateral faces:
LA=8(1/2)(6.6)(8√2)
LA = 298.7
