The slant height of a cone with lateral surface are of 19.2π inches squared and radius of 2.4 inches is 8 inches.

<h3>Lateral surface area of a cone</h3>

The formula for the lateral surface area of a cone is described as follows:

Lateral area = πrl

where

r = base radius
l = slant height

Therefore,

Lateral area = 19.2π inches²

r = 2.4 inches

Lateral area = π × 2.4 × l

19.2π = 2.4πl

divide both sides by 2.4π

l = 19.2π / 2.4π

l = 8 inches

The triangles below are similar. Triangle A B C. Side A C is 10 and side A B is 5. Angle C is 30 degrees. Triangle D E F. Side E

Gnoma [55]

Answer:

$\triangle ABC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle DE\ F$

$\triangle CBA {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle FED$

$\triangle BAC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle EDF$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\triangle ABC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle DE\ F$

$AC = 10$

$AB = 5$

$\angle C = 30^\circ$

$ED = 7.5$

$DF = 25$

$\angle F =30$

$\angle E =90$

Required

Which of the options is/are true:

$\triangle CBA {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle FED$ $\triangle CBA {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle FDE$ $\triangle BAC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle EFD$

$\triangle BAC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle EDF$ $\triangle ABC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle DE\ F$ $\triangle ABC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle DFE$

The given triangles, implies that:

$A {\displaystyle \sim } \ D$

$B {\displaystyle \sim } \ E$

$C {\displaystyle \sim } \ F$

By taking each sides of both triangle, one after the other; the possible similar triangles are:

$\triangle ABC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle DE\ F$

$\triangle CBA {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle FED$

$\triangle BAC {\displaystyle \sim } \triangle EDF$

The speeds of cars on a given i street we are normally distributed with a mean of 72 miles per hour and a standard deviation of

Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer: 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be a random variable that represents the speed of the drivers.

Given: population mean : M = 72 miles ,

Standard deviation: s= 3.2 miles

The probability that the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution:

$P(70\leq X\leq 80)=P(\frac{70-72}{3.2}\leq \frac{X-M}{s}\leq\frac{80-72}{3.2})\\\\= P(-0.625\leq Z\leq 2.5)\ \ \ \ \ [Z=\frac{X-M}{s}]\\\\=P(Z\leq2.5)-P(Z\leq -0.625)\\\\\\ =0.9938-0.2660\ \ \ [\text{Using p-value calculator}]\\\\=0.7278$

Hence, 72.78% of the drivers are traveling between 70 and 80 miles per hour based on this distribution.
