\[V = \pi r ^2 h\]

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So V = 3.14 * 1.9^2 * 11 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Looks good

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So the answer is 124.6894

OpenStudy (anonymous):

124.75

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m^3

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Well I have answer choices... a. 75.449 pi m^3 b. 49.02 pi m^3 c. 41.8 pi m^3 d. 39.71 pi m^3

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

I don't think thats correct...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh in terms of pi

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So don't include pi in your calculation, leave it alone.

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Okay so is 65.626...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, how did you get that?

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

I did 3.14 * 1.9 * 11 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You should have ...pi m^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No leave pi alone, look at your choiced

OpenStudy (anonymous):

choices, just do 1.9^2*11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

When it says leave it in terms of pi, it means your answer should look as such \[(some~~ number) \pi~ m^3\]

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

39.71 ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes :)

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Can you help me with 2 more?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well I'm about to sleep, but if it's short sure.

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So I just 3^2 * 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are the dimensions? :P

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Opps h = 6 in r = 3 in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Same formula

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

3^2 * 6?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Looks good

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

The answer is 54

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

??

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, if the cylinders height is given, that looks good.

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

@dumbcow @zepdrix Can you help me with the problem above? ^^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Split them up. 3cm * 8cm * 5cm and then add that to 6cm * 2cm * 5cm

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

use volume of rectangle prism ----> v = l*w*h the figure has 2 rectangle prisms so find both volumes, then add them together

syed98 (syedmohammed98):

agreed @dumbcow

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So 3cm * 8cm * 5cm = 120 6cm * 2cm * 5cm = 60

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Which is 180...

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Correct?

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

yes

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Okay, I have one last question. The lateral area of a cone is 555 pi cm^2. The radius is 15 cm. What is the slant height to the nearest tenth of a centimeter?

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

AreaCone = pi*r*slant

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

How do I find the slant?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lateral area is the area on the outside on the slant, not the bottom. |dw:1430294490385:dw| Formula is PI times Radius times the square root of the height squared plus the radius squared, for the lateral height. 555 pi = 15 pi * square root of h^2 + square root of 15^2 555 pi = 15pi * square root (h^2 + 225) Divide both sides by 15pi 37 = square root (h^2 + 255) Square both sides 1369 = h^2 + 255 h^2 = 1144 Take square root h = 2 square root 286 But that's height, not lateral height. It's a right triangle a^2 + b^2 = c^2 2 square root 286 squared + 15 squared = c^2 c = square root of 797 That's the lateral height.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

|dw:1430295055121:dw|

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So whats the slant? How do I find the? Im confused..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

= 28.23cm~

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Slant would be c. You have to find a first

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

How do I find a?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

All explained above in my long reply. The "h" here is the "a" 555 pi = 15pi * square root (h^2 + 225) Divide both sides by 15pi 37 = square root (h^2 + 255) Square both sides 1369 = h^2 + 255 h^2 = 1144 Take square root h = 2 square root 286

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So whats the formula I do to find the answer.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's not just one formula. First the formula of a lateral area of a cone, plug in what you have which is everything except h. Then you put h into the pythagorean theorem and h is the height of the cylinder or "a" in my equation and then "b" is the radius and "c" is what you're solving for.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That was weird, my OS went down, but it seems you have more than enough help :), also next time please try to keep one question per post, thanks!

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Sorry my OS keeps shutting down too...

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

The answer is 21.7, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not from my math. If you show me yours I'll show you mine again

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

c = square root of 797 is 28.2 h = 2 square root 286 is 16.9 Is this what we are doing?

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Am I getting close. I know the answer is in the 20's, correct?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

c is what you're solving for, so that's the answer

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So 2 square root 286 squared + 15 squared = c^2

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

I do that?

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

572 + 225 = 797

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

So the answer is 28.2?

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

@G-unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yeah that's the answer

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Well I have answer choices, and thats not an answer choice..

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

@G-unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Then I probably made a mistake in my math above but I showed you all the steps. Let's go through it again, I'll do it neatly this time.

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

Okay. One step #1

OpenStudy (ayyookyndall):

@G-unit

OpenStudy (anonymous):

This is the lateral area of a cone. \[A_L = \pi*r*\sqrt{h^2 + r^2}\] |dw:1430297368232:dw| \[A_L\] is the lateral surface area, which we have. It's 555pi cm^2 We'll take out the cm^2 since it's unimportant for now And remember our radius is 15, and that's the r \[555 \pi = \pi*15*\sqrt{h^2+15^2}\] \[555 \pi = 15\pi*\sqrt{h^2+225}\] Then divide both sides by 15pi \[37 = \sqrt{h^2+225}\] Square both sides \[1369 = h^2 + 225\] Subtract 225 from both sides \[1144 = h^2 \] Square both sides h = 33.82 That's the "height" you can look at the image
