OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the bottom and each side, then add them together.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i just cant figure out the perimeter to complete the formula...? help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well as I said, find the bottom. The same way you'd find the surface area of a square /4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A. 7294 yd2 B. 3192 yd2 C. 4758 yd2 D. 3647 yd2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1764.. but how do i find the sides?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2*1764*(side)+(42)..?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lateral area= pl/2 P= perimiter of square(base) l=slant height. slant height by l=h^2 + (0.5side)^2 and taking its square root.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1444.25 how do i put that on square root on the calc

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know i sound so dumb but i just need quick reviews of stuff.. like how to use a calculator LOL

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\sqrt1444.25\]=38.0033

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What kind of calculator do you have?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the cheap one .. my 100$ the buttons r kinda worn off so its hard to c n yes i got 38 also but thats not one of the answers

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my 100$ calc**

OpenStudy (anonymous):

38 is the slant height. lateral area= pl/2 p=perimiter of square(base) l=38

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is a texas instruments calc?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow sry been doing hw too long

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Haha its all good. I know how you feel. Then the square root button should be in the left-most row somewhere. Halfway down ish, You might have to press 2nd first.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u add pl or *

OpenStudy (anonymous):

p*l. So ((42*4)*38)/2= lateral area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got B.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i tried all sorts of ways n got none of them hm, thank u

OpenStudy (anonymous):

42*4=168 168*38=6384 6384/2=3192.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahhh ok im putting it in wrong thanks so much honestly, i have a couple more exams to cram in fml
