Answer:

  √446 ≈ 21.12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The longest dimension of a rectangular prism is the length of the space diagonal from one corner to the opposite corner through the center of the prism. The Pythagorean theorm tells you the square of its length is the sum of the squares of the dimensions of the prism:

  d² = (15 cm)² +(11 cm)² +(10 cm)² = (225 +121 +100) cm² = 446 cm²

  d = √446 cm ≈ 21.12 cm

The longest line segment that can be drawn in a right rectangular prism is about 21.12 cm.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The square of the face diagonal is the sum of the squares of the dimensions of that face. The square of the space diagonal will be the sum of that square and the square of the remaining prism dimenaion, hence the sum of squares of all three prism dimensions.

An estar escrito en la forma n / 1. Por ejemplo, 5 = 5/1 y, por tanto, 5 es un número racional. Sin embargo, números como 1/2, 45454737/2424242 y -3/7 también son racionales, ya que son fracciones cuyo numerador y denominador son números enteros.

A triangle has an angle that measures 10°. The other two angles are in a ratio of 3:14. What
ivann1987 [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Need to FinD :</h3>

  • We have to find the measures of other two angles of triangle.

\red{\frak{Given}} \begin{cases} & \sf{The\ measure\ of\ one\ angle\ of\ traingle\ is\ {\pmb{\sf{10^{\circ}}}}.} \\ & \sf{The\ other\ two\ angles\ are\ in\ the\ ratio\ of\ {\pmb{\sf{3\ :\ 14}}}.} \end{cases}

We know that,

  • The other two angles of triangle are in the ratio of 3 : 14. So, let us consider the other two angles of the triangle be 3x and 14x.

Angle sum property,

  • The angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of triangle is 180°. By using this property, we'll find the other two angles of the triangle.

\rule{200}{3}

\sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 3x\ +\ 14x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {10^{\circ}\ +\ 17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 180^{\circ}\ -\ 10^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {17x\ =\ 170^{\circ}} \\ \\ \\ \sf \dashrightarrow {x\ =\ \dfrac{\cancel{170^{\circ}}}{\cancel{17}}} \\ \\ \\ \dashrightarrow {\underbrace{\boxed{\pink{\frak{x\ =\ 10^{\circ}.}}}}_{\sf \blue {\tiny{Value\ of\ x}}}}

∴ Hence, the value of x is 10°. Now, let us find out the other two angles of the triangle.

\rule{200}{3}

Second AnglE :

  • 3x
  • 3 × 10
  • 30°

∴ Hence, the measure of the second angle of triangle is 30°. Now, let us find out the third angle of triangle.

\rule{200}{3}

Third AnglE :

  • 14x
  • 14 × 10
  • 140°

∴ Hence, the measure of the third angle of the triangle is 140°.

PLEASE ANSWER QUICKLY ASAP <br>READ THE QUESTION CAREFULLY PLEASE ​
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

140°

Step-by-step explanation:

total angle of a hexagon is 720. We know already 510°. That leaves 210°. The ratio between the two angles is 2:1, therefore angle CDE is 140° and angle DEF is 70 °
