When Natalie finishes drawing the large triangle on the poster board, what will be the approximate measure of side BC? Round to

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

31 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached.

A triangle is a polygon with three sides (three edges and three vertices). There are different types of triangles which are equilateral triangles, right triangles, scalene triangles, obtuse triangles, acute triangles, and isosceles triangles.

An equilateral triangle is a triangle in which all its sides are equal and all its angles are equal to 60°.

From the triangle, AB = BC = AC = 9.5 cm

Since the triangle is enlarged 3.25 times, hence:

new length of BC = 9.25 cm × 3.25 = 30.875

New length of BC = 31 cm to nearest cm

Aubrey claims that if the dimensions of the parallelogram shown are doubled, then the area of the larger parallelogram will be 4

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Aubrey is correct because the area of the new parallelogram is 12 (6) = 72 square inches. The original area is 18 square inches. Since 4 (18) = 72, the new parallelogram has 4 times the area of the original.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram with a base of 6 inches and height of 3 inches. A side has a length of 5 inches.

Aubrey is correct because the area of the new parallelogram is 12 (6) = 72 square inches. The original area is 18 square inches. Since 4 (18) = 72, the new parallelogram has 4 times the area of the original.

Aubrey is correct because the area of the new parallelogram is 10 (7) = 70 square inches. The original area is 18 square inches. Since 4 (18) = 72, it is about 4 times larger than the original.

Aubrey is incorrect because if one doubles each dimension, then the area will automatically be doubled as well. The original area is 18 square inches so the new parallelogram will have an area of 2 (18) = 36, or two times more than the original.

Aubrey is incorrect because if one doubles each dimension, then the area will automatically be doubled as well. The original area is 30 square inches so the new parallelogram will have an area of 2 (30) = 60, or 2 times more than the original.

Workings

Area of a parallelogram=base×height

Original parallelogram

Base=6 inches

Height=3 inches

Area=base×height

=6×3

=18 square inches

New parallelogram with doubled dimensions

Base=6 inches doubled=12 inches

Height=3 inches doubled=6 inches

Area=base×height

=12×6

=72 square inches

New area=4 times original area

New area=4×18

New area=72 square inches

A pyramid has a square base of length 8cm and a total surface area of 144cm². Find the volume of the pyramid. (Please use Pythag

Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

$\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given surface area and the length of the square base

we want to figure out the Volume

to do so

we need to figure out slant length first

recall the formula of surface area

$\displaystyle A_{\text{surface}}=B+\dfrac{1}{2}\times P \times s$

where B stands for Base area

and P for Base Parimeter

so

$\sf\displaystyle \: 144=(8 \times 8)+\dfrac{1}{2}\times (8 \times 4) \times s$

now we need our algebraic skills to figure out s

simplify parentheses:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{2}\times32\times s = 144$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle \: 64+\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ \: 2}}\times \cancel{32} \: ^{16} \times s = 144 \\ 64 + 16 \times s = 144$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle \: 16s + 64 = 144$

cancel 64 from both sides;

$\displaystyle \: 16s = 80$

divide both sides by 16:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: s = 5$

now we'll use Pythagoras theorem to figure out height

according to the theorem

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{l}{2} {)}^{2} = {s}^{2}$

substitute the value of l and s:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (\frac{8}{2} {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify parentheses:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + (4 {)}^{2} = {5}^{2}$

simplify squares:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} + 16 = 25$

cancel 16 from both sides:

$\displaystyle \: {h}^{2} = 9$

square root both sides:

$\displaystyle \: \therefore \: {h}^{} = 3$

recall the formula of a square pyramid

$\displaystyle V_{pyramid}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times A\times h$

where A stands for Base area (l²)

substitute the value of h and l:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times \{8 \times 8 \}\times 3$

simplify multiplication:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 64\times 3$

reduce fraction:

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}=\dfrac{1}{ \cancel{ 3 \: }}\times 64\times \cancel{ \: 3}$

hence,

$\sf\displaystyle V_{ \text{pyramid}}= 64 \: {cm}^{3}$
