The rectangular prism will fit in the pole if the longest diagonal in the pole is less than 13 feet.

<h3>How to determine the longest dimension in the prism</h3>

The longest diagonal (d) in the prism is calculated using;

$d = \sqrt{x^2 + y^2 + z^2$

Where x, y and z are the dimensions of the prism.

Assume the dimensions are: 4, 5 and 6 feet,

The formula becomes

$d = \sqrt{4^2 + 5^2 + 6^2$

$d = \sqrt{77$

$d = 8.8$

Using the assumed dimensions, the rectangular prism will fit in the pole if the longest diagonal.

This is so because: 8.8 feet is less than 13 feet

Alice is saving money at a constant rate. Suppose she initially has $70 saved, and after 2 months, she has $170 saved.

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

50 dollars per month

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Months = 2$

$Total = 170$

$Initial = 70$

Required

Determine the rate of savings

Suppose in a month, she saves x amount.

In 2 months, she would save 2x

When 2x is added to the initial savings, it gives the total amount saved.

So, we have:

$2x + 70 = 170$

Collect Like Terms

$2x = 170 - 70$

$2x = 100$

Divide both sides by 2

$x = \frac{100}{2}$

$x = 50$

<em>Hence, she saves $50 dollars monthly</em>

Find X using the given information

aleksley [76]

Answer:

Just so you hear, Whirlybot, these circle problems are always "tricks" and they are tough. You have to remember a bunch of implied things

Step-by-step explanation:

One thing to recall is that the angle from the tangent point to O at the center is also a 90° angle. so you now know, that the line from the point where the circle touches the tangent line to the center is a right angle and you have part of that 90° already. the 50 is one part and there for the next part is 40 ° Since we now know that the line from the tangent to the center is forming an internal angle with that line going to X of 40 ° we know that X is also 40 ° b/c the triangle formed by the line to the center is going to be the same length as the line from the center to the X. That's an Isosceles triangle. they have the same angles at the two same length legs.

I know, I went thur a whole pile of logic, but that's what makes this kind of problem tough. you just have to keep thinking about things you know.

X = 40 °
