Volume = L x W x V
Volume = 2.5 x 3.5 = 8.75
Volume = 8.75 x 4 = 35
The volume of the rectangular prism is 35 ft
Can you write the full sentence?..
bearing in mind that the hypotenuse is never negative, since it's just a distance unit, so if an angle has a sine ratio of -(5/13) the negative must be the numerator, namely -5/13.

le's bear in mind that the sine is negative on both the III and IV Quadrants, so both angles are feasible for this sine and therefore, for the III Quadrant we'd have a negative cosine, and for the IV Quadrant we'd have a positive cosine.
The expression would be s/10.
i.e. If you have 20 sponges and 10 sponges are in each package, the number of packages would be 2 because of 20/10.
