Answer:

20 kilometres

Step-by-step explanation:

We will imagine a triangle. The hypotenuse of the triangle is the distance between you and the plane. 16 kilometres is the aerial space between you two, in other words its the base of the triangle. 12 km is the length of the third leg of the triangle. We will apply the pythagorean theorem to find the length of the hypotenuse and the distance between you and the plane.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

12^2 + 16^2 = c^2

144 + 256 = c^2

400 = c^2

square root of 400 is c which equals 20 km.

Find the volume of the Triangular Prism<br> Volume
Crank

Answer:

Volume = 144 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of triangular prism = ½*b*h*l

Where,

Base of triangular base (b) = 4 m

Height of triangular base (h) = 12 m

Length of prism (l) = 6 m

Volume = ½*4*12*6

Volume = 2*12*6 = 144 m³

PLEASE HELP ME WITH THIS QUESTION
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

y-k

x-h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given E &D, F would be at (x, k).

That means E to F would be y-k.

And F to D would be x-h.

I assume you don’t need to find E to D, since that’s just r. (You could use the Distance Formula or Pythagoreans theorem to come up with and equation, but it wouldn‘t be one of those listed.)
