Answer:
125.141
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that this is an equilateral triangle, I am going to divide this triangle in half to get a right triangle.
17 is our hypotenuse
17/2 = 8.5, this is one of our legs
The other leg is our height, which we will find.
We use Pythagoras Theorem to find the height/leg: 

= 14.72243186
Now, we use another formula to find the area of the triangle: 
14.72243186 × 17 = 250.2813416
250.2813416 ÷ 2 = <u>125.1406708</u>
The amount of light passing through each foot the water in the lake = 100% - 60% = 40%
The percent of light passing through 5 feet of water = 0.4^5 = 0.01024 = 1.02%
Answer:
![r=\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B3V%7D%7B4%5Cpi%7D%7D)
Step-by-step explanation:

We need to isolate 'r'
To isolate 'r' , first multiply by 3 on both sides
divide by 4pi on both sides

Take cube root on both sides
![\sqrt[3]{\frac{3V}{4\pi}}= r](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cfrac%7B3V%7D%7B4%5Cpi%7D%7D%3D%20r)
Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 sides of a triangle then the third side x is
difference of 2 sides < x < sum of 2 sides , that is
18 - 2 < x < 18 + 2
16 < x < 20
Then the largest possible length of the third side is 19
The height of the prism is 12 feet.
