Answer:
x = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
=
, substitute values
=
( cross- multiply )
56(3x - 5) = 32(5x - 5) ← distribute and simplify both sides
168x - 280 = 160x - 160 ( subtract 160x from both sides )
8x - 280 = - 160 ( add 280 to both sides )
8x = 120 ( divide both sides by 8 )
x = 15
4.) The lateral area of a figure is the area of the figure with the exception of the bases.
Given a prism with right triangle bases, the lateral area of the prism is the sum of the areas of the rectangles making up the prism.
This is given by
Lateral area = (8.94)(41) + (4)(41) + (8)(41) = 366.54 + 164 + 328 = 858.54 ≈ 859 m^2
The surface area is the sum of the bases plus the lateral area. The area of a rectangle is given by half base times height.
Surface area = 1/2 x 8 x 4 + 1/2 x 8 x 4 + 859 = 16 + 16 + 859 = 891 m^2
5.) The surface area of a cylinder is given by pi r^2h where r is the radius = 12 inches and h is the height = 17 inches.
Surface area = π x (12)^2 x 17 = 2,448π = 7,690.62 in^2 ≈ 7,691 in^2
Answer:
1
Step-by-step explanation:
Any real number to the power of 0 is one (being that there is always a denominator of 1).
