Question

i need help

Answer 1

2. Describe the shape of the cross section when the box is cut parallel to the base.

Answer 2

my measurements are length = 8in. width=5in. Height=1in.

Answer 3

it's a Triangle right?

Answer 4

no rectangle

Answer 5

you finding the area?

Answer 6

if its a rectangle, then that should be the answer-

Answer 7

is it like a cube? a 3d model?

Answer 8

there are 2 simple basic rules


A cross section that is parallel to the base is a hexagon congruent to the hexagonal bases.

A cross section that is perpendicular to the base is a rectangle.

in your case, the right answer is the second one

Answer 9

so if u cut it parallel to the base ur basically cutting the height in half correct?

Answer 10

that doesnt make since roney

i think these are the original measurments

Answer 15

A rectangle is a 2D shape in geometry, having 4 sides and 4 corners. Its two sides meet at right angles. Thus, a rectangle has 4 angles, each measuring 90 ̊.

Ok solve now

Answer 19

i can try but i don't know if that was the beginning measurements or after they cut it

Answer 20

Area=length × width

Answer 21

those were the beginning measement

Answer 22

Area of the rectangle, A = L × B A = L \times B A=L×B. Area of the square, A = S i d e 2 =Side ^2 =Side2. Perimeter of a rectangle, P = 2 × ( L + B ) P = 2 \times ( L+B ) P=2×(L+B)

are you trying to find the area? surface area? or perimeter?

Answer 24

2. Describe the shape of the cross section when the box is cut parallel to the base.

Answer 25

the box is a cube right? and a cube is a square shape supposedly? so if you cut it what should it be?

Answer 26

so the thing i measured is a rectangle

Answer 27

mhm

Answer 28

and if you cut the rectangle like your cutting a slice of cheese it would be.

Answer 29

12 is right answer

Answer 30

she is finding the shape, 12 isn't a shape.

Answer 31

Ok shape

Answer 32

would it be a square?

Answer 33

wait why is the cut diagonal?

Answer 34

your doing it parallel right?

Answer 35

i thought it had to be parallel to the base?

Answer 36

it's parrellel

Answer 37

as i posted earlier in the question
