Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: the sand in the new terrarium is 2 inches deep.
Step-by-step explanation:
Zach has a terrarium with the dimensions of 20 by 8 and the terrarium was filled with 3 inches of sand. It means that the volume of sand that this terrarium contains is
20 × 8 × 3 = 480 inches³
Zach gets a new terrarium that is larger with the dimensions of 10 by 24. If Zach moved the existing sand in the new terrarium and the height of the sand is represented by h, then the volume of sand into he new terrarium is
10 × 24 × h = 240h
Since the volume of sand in both terrariums is equal, then
240h = 480
h = 480/240
h = 2 inches
D.All interior angles are 90 degrees
Answer: Option 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Similar triangles have congruent angles, so this means that the sines, cosines, and tangents should be the same.
Thus, the side lengths of the triangle we want to find should be multiples of
.
- This eliminates options (1) and (3).
Between options 2 and 4, we know that the Pythagorean theorem is not satisfied by option (2), thus we should eliminate it.
This leaves us with option (4)
