Sage, what do you know?

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

not a single thing at the moment. I'm 100% confused on this one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay, is the base a square? Are all the edges of the base equal in length?

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

The base is a square, all edges of the base are equal.

OpenStudy (sagewilson):

no wait, it's a rectangle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If it is a rectangle, I'm not really sure that we have enough information to solve this.

Miracrown (miracrown):

xy = 3 py = 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is the outer face

Miracrown (miracrown):

(Px)^2 + (xy)^2 = (Py)^2 so, (Px)^2 = (Py)^2 - (xy)^2

Miracrown (miracrown):

(Px)^2 = 6^2 - 3^2 = ?

|dw:1418530733085:dw| This is the cross section when you cut it in half
