Answer:

√3 * 5 = 5√3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

→ ABCDEFGH is a cube.

→ CF = Diagonal of cube.

→ CH = Diagonal of Base Face BCDH.

→ Let the side of Each cube = a.

Than,

in Right ∆CFH, By Pythagoras Theoram, we have,

→ CH² + FH² = CF² --------- Equation (1)

and, Similarly, in Right ∆CDH ,

→ CD² + DH² = CH² ------- Equation (2).

Putting Value of Equation (2) in Equation (1), we get,

→ (CD² + DH²) + FH² = CF²

→ a² + a² + a² = CF²

→ CF² = 3a²

→ CF = √3a .

Hence, we can say That Diagonal of a cube is √3 times of its sides.

Given:-

Side of cube = 5cm.

So,

→ Diagonal of cube = √3 * 5 = 5√3 cm. (Ans.)

The variable is Quantitative, has Interval level of measurement.

Variables which can be quantified & expressed numerically are Quantitative variables. Eg : as given , price

Variables which cant be qualified & expressed numerically are Qualitative variables. Eg : level of honesty, loyalty etc

Nominal & Ordinal are qualitative variables : signifying yes or no to a category (like men or women) , or ranks (x better than y) respectively. So price level is not such categorical & ordinal ratio.

Quantitative ratio variables are with reference to time , or are in forms of rate (like speed , growth per year). So, price level is not such ratio variable also.

Price is a quantitative variable, in which the ranking, its difference can be calculated. This is characteristic of a <u>Quantitative Interval Variable</u>.

Rahzel wants to determine how much gasoline he and his wife use in a month.He calculated that he used 78 1/3 gallons of gas last

52. Rahzel wants to determine how much gasoline they had every month => He used 78 1/3 gallons of gas monthly => his wife used 41 3/8 gallons of gas last month How much is to total of gas that they both used. First let’s convert this fraction to decimal => 78 1/3 = 78.33 => 41 3/8 = 41.38 Now, let’s start adding. => 78.33 + 41.38 = 119.71 this is already rounded to the nearest hundredths.

An exterior angle of an isosceles triangle has measure 130°. Find two possible sets of measures for the angles of the triangle.

frozen [14]

(1) it can be both exterior of vertex or base. 180-130=50°
vertex is 50°: base=(180-50)/2=65°
base is 50°: vertex= 180-2*50=80°

vertex 50 base 65; vertex 80, base 50

(2)base=180-130=50°
vertex=180-2*50=80°

base 50 vertex 80
