@kx2bay can you help with theses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

am here

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for this one 203b_unit1testpart2.docx d^2 = a^2 + b^2 this is Pythagorean theorem, can u find d=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im not that good at the pythagorean theorem

OpenStudy (anonymous):

never mind, u have a and b, find d using the above formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does this ^ mean?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

to the power

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x^2 means x squared or x times x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[d ^{2} = 6 ^{2} + 8^{2}\] \[d ^{2} = 36 + 64 = 100\] \[d = \sqrt{100} = 10\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

part B of the first question Area of a triangle = half * base * height = (1/2)* 8* 6 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok now i know why my answer was wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Part C of first Q Volume of prism = area of base * width of prism = 24 * 12 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then b is 24 and c is 288

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont think i got c right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

part D of Q1 Surface area = area of the 2 triangles + area of the rectangular bottom + area of the rectangular side + area of the Sloping side = (2*24) + (12*8) + (12*6) + 12*10) = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

288 is right for the volume, why dont u think its right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a=10 b=24 c=288 and d=336 right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought c was to high of a number to be right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

excellent!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the first paper is done

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Q2 a. height of smaller pyramid is 6, larger pyramid is 12, so the scale factor of the smaller pyramid = 6/12 = ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Q2 b. ratio of areas of smaller to bigger pyramid = (1/2)^2 = 1/4 so in the smaller pyramid, the base is 4 times smaller than the larger pyramid, understand?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is this for the 2nd paper now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i understand

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what's a from Q2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this is a small test for u ;)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a is half 0.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

excellent! so u r following me :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for C the volume ratio will be (1/2)^3 = 1/8 i.e. the volume of the smaller pyramid is 8 times smaller than the larger one u get this part?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes i do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can u answer D then ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i will try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its very very easy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

volume = what again?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

volume of small pyra = 400 and it is 8 times smaller than bigger pyra, what's the volume of bigger pyra?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3200?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

excellent!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did u sweat?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but how did u get the 400

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hahahhaaa, read your posted Q buddy :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The height of one square pyramid is 6 m. A similar pyramid has a height of 12 m. The volume of the smaller pyramid is 400 m3 .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh ok i get it now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ready to move on?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes now to paper 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3.a) the center is ??? look at the equation and tell me what's after x and what's after y ? this will be the centre but need to change the sign, i.e. if + then - and if - then + ok?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what are the coordinates of the centre? write them down as a par (x, y)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

typo ...down as a PAIR (x, y)...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i find it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what's the equation of the circle given in the posted question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(x-4)^2 + (y+2)^2 = 16 the centre is (4, -2)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now B. the radius that will be SQRT(160 = 4, right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did u find that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

now C the drawing |dw:1400819783857:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

typo above SQRT(16) = 4 is the radius

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok I have to go now, can I ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@melonhead23 can i leave u now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so the draw is c can you help me tomorrow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you so much

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the drawing is C Not sure about tomorrow YW
