Answer:

x ≈ 2879.4 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of ∠DAC = 10°

Measure of ∠DAB = 90°

Measure of ∠BAC = 90° - 10° = 80°

By applying cosine rule in ΔABC,

cos(80°) = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

= $\frac{AB}{AC}$

0.17365 = $\frac{500}{x}$

x = $\frac{500}{0.17365}$

x = 2879.36

x ≈ 2879.4 m

in a classroom training student has to create a triangle pyramid using various items. Each group then used measurement to determ

balandron [24]

The formula for the volume of pyramid is,

$V=\frac{Bh}{3}$

Here, B is base area and height of pyramid.

The volume expression for group 4 is,

$V=\frac{1}{3}\cdot(\frac{8\cdot4}{2})\cdot9$

Here, expression,

$\frac{8\cdot4}{2}$

represents the base area and 9 represent the height of pyramid.

So height of the pyramid created by group 4 is 9.

A rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola y=2−x2. What are the dimensions of su

Paul [167]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a rectangle is inscribed with its base on the x-axis and its upper corners on the parabola

$y=2-x^2$

the parabola is open down with vertex at (0,2)

We can find that the rectangle also will be symmetrical about y axis.

Let the vertices on x axis by (p,0) and (-p,0)

Then other two vertices would be (p,2-p^2) (-p,2-p^2) because the vertices lie on the parabola and satisfy the parabola equation

Now width = $2-p^2$

Area = l*w = $2(2p-p^3)$

Use derivative test

I derivative = $2(2-3p^2)$

II derivative = $-12p$

Equate I derivative to 0 and consider positive value only since we want maximum

p = $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3} }$

Thus width= $\sqrt{\frac{2}{3} }$

Length = $2\sqrt{\frac{2}{3} }$

Width = $2-2/3 = 4/3$
