Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a= 12 mm ; b = 16 mm  ; c = 18 mm

s = (a + b+c)/2

=\dfrac{12 + 16 + 8}{2}\\\\= \dfrac{36}{2}\\\\= 18\\\\

s -a =  18 -  12 = 6 mm

s  -b = 18 - 16 = 2 mm

s  -c = 18 - 8 = 10 mm

area = \sqrt{s(s -a)(s-b)(s-c)}

       = \sqrt{18*6*2*10}\\\\= \sqrt{2160 }\\\\=46.47\\\\=46 \ mm^{2}\\

\dfrac{1}{2}* \ base * \ height = 46\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}*16* \ height = 46\\\\height = \dfrac{46*2}{16}\\\\

  = 5.75

Height = 5.8 mm

Answer:

A. 5.8mm

Step-by-step explanation:

area \: of \: triangle =  \sqrt{s(s - a) \times (s - b) \times (s - c)}  \\ s =  \frac{a + b + c}{2}  \\ s =  \frac{12 + 8 + 16}{2} \\ s = 18 \\ area \: of \: triangle \: =  \sqrt{18(18 - 12) \times (18 - 8) \times (18 - 16)}  \\ =   \sqrt{2160}  \\  = 46.47 {m}^{2} \\ area \: of \: triangle \:  =  \frac{1}{2} \times base \times height \\  46.47 =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 16 \times h \\ h =  \frac{46.47}{8}  \\ h = 5.8mm

musickatia [10]
1 = 4

a2 = -2(a1) - 1
a2 = -2(4) - 1
a2 = -9

a3 = -2(a2) - 1
a3 = -2(9) - 1
a3 = -19

a storage room measures 20 feet by 15 feet. the floor is covered by tiles that cost $7.50 per square foot. what will be the cost
Sidana [21]

Answer: $2250

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given information</u>

Dimension of the room = 20 feet × 15 feet

Cost of tiles = $7.50 / ft²

<u>Derived formula from the given information</u>

Total cost = Floor area × Cost of tiles

<u>Substitute values into the formula</u>

Total cost = Floor area × Cost of tiles

Total cost = (20 × 15) × (7.5)

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

Total cost = 300 × (7.5)

\Large\boxed{Total~cost~=~2250~Dollars}

Hope this helps!! :)

Each side of an equilateral triangle measure 11 centimeters. To the nearest tenth of an centimeter, what is the length of the al
Orlov [11]
The length of the altitude is 9.5 cm.

The altitude bisects the base of the equilateral triangle (this is because the two sides emerging from the vertex are equal).  This gives us a right triangle with leg 5.5 and hypotenuse 11.  We use the Pythagorean theorem:

5.5² + h² = 11²
30.25 + h² = 121

Subtract 30.25 from both sides:
30.25 + h² - 30.25 = 121 - 30.25
h² = 90.75

Take the square root of both sides:
√h² = √90.75
h = 9.5
