You are making poster board boundary markers in the shape of square pyramids for a relay race. If you are including a ten -inch square as the bottom and you want the slant height to be twelve inches, how much poster board do you need? three hundred forty square inches three hundred sixty square inches three hundred eighty-four square inches four hundred square inches

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wow this is a tricky one give me a minute or 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

total area of a pyramid is TA=(1/2) times the perimeter of the base times the length of the slant height + the area of the base

OpenStudy (anonymous):

permeter of the base is 40, because each side is 10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im back sorry for not replying

OpenStudy (anonymous):

using the pythagorean theorem your slant height is squareroot of 169 which is 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you're fine

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no now put the numbers in for the equation i gave you

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[TA=(1/2)(40)(13)+100\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that will be your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

let me do the math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20 times 13 plus 100

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after you get rid of the 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 360

OpenStudy (anonymous):

me too good job

OpenStudy (anonymous):

; ) thanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can we do another

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure I'll try

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[V=Bh\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

50(7)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
