The Great Pyramids of Khufu is located in El Giza, Egypt. Pyramids were built to serve as tombs for the pharaohs of ancient Egypt. The Great Pyramid is 481 feet high and has a square base with a base edge length of 756 feet. What is the approximate surface area (to the nearest hundredth) of the pyramid.
(HINT: Is the base on the surface?)

Square with edge length = 756 feet
Square= 1/2 × 297.45 × 481
= 286,146.9ft
= 1,037,709,9ft. base with edge length =756 feet
area of square,
= Side² = 756 × 756 = 571,563ft²
⇒ area of base = 1/2 = 756/2 = 378ft
By pythagorean theorem,
H² = P²+B²
(481)² = P²+(378)²
P² = (481)²-(378)²
P² = 231,361-142,884
P² = 88,477
P = √88,477
P = 297.45
Area of triangle =1/2 × b × h
= 1/2x297.45*481
= 148.725×481
= 71,536.725
Now 4 area of triangle = 4×71,536.725
= 286,146.9ft
total surface area of pyramid + square
= 751,563+286,146.
= 1,037,709,9ft.


Answer:
B ( 432 units^2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Total surface area= 2*(6*6)+ 4*(15*6)
There are 2 squares at each end of the same size so total area will be 2*(6*6)
If we look at the rectangles( bottom, top and the sides), we can see that all are of same dimensions and there are 4 of them so it's 4*(15*6)
In short, total surface area= 2*(6*6)+ 4*(15*6) = 432 units^2
Answer:
One equation would be y= -1.5x +11
Step-by-step explanation:
Here's a table to show the coordinates
x: y:
8 -1
-------------------
-4 17
the x coor. 8 goes down by 12 to get to the next x coor. -4.
8-12= -4
the y coor. -1 goes up by 18 to get to the next y coor. 17.
-1+18= 17
therefore 18/-12 is -1.5 which can be your k in y=kx+b.
Check your answer.
-1.5*8= -12 but when you add 11, you get the y coor. -1
Do the same with the other x coor.
-4*-1.5= 6 + 11 =17
11 can be your b in the slope-intercept form equation.
One equation may be y = -1.5x +11
