Answer:

About 80% of earthquakes occur where plates are pushed together, called convergent boundaries. Another form of convergent boundary is a collision where two continental plates meet head-on. The sliding motion of transform boundaries also causes a lot of earthquakes. The strongest and most famous earthquake along the San Andreas fault hit San Francisco in 1906.

valentinak56 [21]

All the options are correct.

If we look at the formula of prismoidal, we can see that it contains, three areas = area of faces at top and bottom and area of midway section

Thus it can be used to calculate the a) calculate surface area for cylindrical rings And b) estimate the surface area of edged non-prismoidal solids.  

In the volume formula of prismoidal, the factor (depth/6) is multiplied by the three areas as mentioned above, this gives the volume of faces at top and bottom and midway section. Thus option C and D are also correct.
