Answer:

FA = 25.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: BD = 30 , DF = 5 , EF = 16

To find: FA

Rectangular box is a Cuboid.

Figure attached.

AB = FE = 16

So,

In ΔADB

using Pythagoras theorem,

$DB^2=AB^2+AD^2\\30^2=16^2+AD^2\\900=256+AD^2\\AD^2=900-256\\AD^2=644\\AD=\sqrt{644}\\AD=2\sqrt{161}$

Again using Pythagoras theorem in Δ ADF we get

$FA^2=DF^2+AD^2\\FA^2=5^2+(2\sqrt{161})^2\\FA^2=25+644\\FA^2=669\\FA=\sqrt{669}\\FA=25.87$

Therefore, FA = 25.87

AD = sqrt(EF^2 + DB^2) = sqrt(16^2 + 30^2) = sqrt(256 + 900) = sqrt(1156) = 34

AF = sqrt(AD^2 + FD^2) = sqrt(34^2 + 5^2) = sqrt(1156 + 25) = sqrt(1181) = 34.4

Ethan Makes $6 per hour mowing lawns and $7.50 per hour bagging groceries. last week, he made a total of $129. the difference be

zlopas [31]

Let x be the number of hours of nagging groceries spent by Ethan. With this representation, the number of hours for moving lawns will be x + 10. The equation that would let us solve this item is,

6x + 7.50(x + 10) = 129

The value of x from the equation is 4. Thus, the number of hours spent for moving lawns is 14 hours.

Marco has drawn a line to represent the perpendicular cross-section of the triangular prism. Is he correct? Explain. triangular

evablogger [386]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

A triangular prism lying on a rectangular base and a line drawn along the slant height

A perpendicular bisector should therefore be perpendicular with reference to the base of the triangular prism such that the cross section will be congruent to the triangular faces

Therefore Marco is correct and the correct option is yes, the line should be perpendicular to one of the rectangular faces (the face the prism is lying on).
