Geometry, please explain how you got the answer.
it was blowing in the wind =)
you can show pictures here too you know, see the [Attach File] blue button?
would you like a photo?
preferably, yes, because there, I can't tell what's 6.99 or what's 3.5
k one sec
its question 19
|dw:1378764169648:dw| you get the are of the FACING TRIANGLE first, and then multiply it by the HOW THICK IT'S running down to the other triangular face and that would be the volume
please explain again
ok... you know what the area of a triangle is?
ya i got it
\(\bf \textit{area of a triangle } = \cfrac{1}{2} \times base \times height \implies \cfrac{1}{2} \times 83.88 \times 83.88\)
k what next
times 13.5
ok 329.805675 now what?
well, I got ... a bigger number but that will be the value of the filling
but the right answer is 27.5ft i just dont know how to get it
yes, because I used inches, the base and height are in feet, the filling thickness is in inches
\(\bf \textit{volume of the filling } = \left(\cfrac{1}{2} \times 83.88 \times 83.88\right) \times 13.5\)
oooooooooooooooooo i get it ok thank you!!!!
to convert to inches, just divide it by \(\begin{array}{llll} 1ft & = & 12in\\ 1ft^2 & = & 12^2in^2\\ 1ft^3 & = & {\bf 12^3}in^3 \end{array}\)
by \(\bf 12^3\)
