To determine the ratio, we need to know the formula of the area of an hexagon in terms of the length of its sides. We cannot directly conclude that the ratio would be 3, the same as that of the ratio of the lengths of the side, since it may be that the relationship of the area and length is not equal. The area of a hexagon is calculated by the expression:

A = (3√3/2) a^2

So, we let a1 be the length of the original hexagon and a2 be the length of the new hexagon.

A2/A1 = (3√3/2) a2^2 / (3√3/2) a1^2
A2/A1 = (a2 / a1)^2 = 3^2 = 9

Therefore, the ratio of the areas of the new and old hexagon would be 9.

A cone and a sphere both have a radius of 1. If you fill the cone with liquid, and pour it into the sphere, it fits exactly. Wha
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for the volume of the sphere, then solve for the height of the cone using the volume of the sphere (which is said to be equal to the volume of the cone) and the radius given.

<u>Volume formula of Sphere</u>

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^2

<u>Substitute 1 in for r</u>

\frac{4}{3} \pi (1)^2 = \frac{4}{3} \pi  = 4.189 = Volume

<u>Finding the Height of a Cone</u>

Volume formula for Cone: V = \pi r^2\frac{h}{3}

<u />

<u>Solve for </u><u><em>h</em></u>

Multiply both sides by 3, then divide by pi and r^2.

h = \frac{3V}{\pi r^2}

<u>Plug in the volume and the radius.</u>

h = \frac{3(4.189)}{\pi (1)^2}

<u>Simplify</u>

h = \frac{12.567}{\pi }

h ≈ 4

<u>4 is approximately the height.</u>

<u></u>
