Find H. V = 768 cm3
Volume = areaBase *h h = areaBase/volume volume = 768 we need to find areaBase for this figure the base or top and bottom is a right triangle the triangle has one side of 8 and diagonal side of 17 area of triangle = 1/2*length*height find height of triangle using pythagorean theorem a^2 +b^2 = c^2 so 8^2+b^2 = 17^2 find b, then use that to find area of triangle
i got 15
correct areaTriangle = 1/2*8*15
does 15 as height?
oops i made a mistake h=volume/areaBase
yes 15 is height of triangle
Find h. V = 896 cm3
what do you get for an answer for H?
192
how did you get 192?
768=1/2*8*H
be careful there are 2 equations one is for 2-dimensional triangle (The base) one is for 3-dimensional prism 768 = (AreaTriangle)*H AreaTriangle = 1/2*8*15
i got 12.8
correct
ok can u help me with the next question
Volume = areaBase*Height 896 = areaBase*24 areaBase = 896/24=112/3 Base is a hexagon, but can be split up into 2 trapezoids Area of trapezoid = 1/2*h*(b1+b2) = 112/3 b1 =12 b2 = 20 solve for h
wait another mistake areaTrapezoid = 1/2*areabase = 1/2*112/3 = 112/6=56/3
sorry i gotta go good luck answer is 1.166 so you can check
