Slant height of tetrahedron is=6.53cm

Volume of the tetrahedron is=60.35\mathrm{cm}^{3}

Given:

Length of each edge a=8cm

To find:

Slant height and volume of the tetrahedron

<u>Step by Step Explanation: </u>

Solution;

Formula for calculating slant height is given as

Slant height=\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} a

Where a= length of each edge

Slant height=\sqrt{\frac{2}{3}} \times 8

                     =\sqrt{0.6667} \times 8

                     =0.8165 \times 8=6.53cm

Similarly formula used for calculating volume is given as

Volume of the tetrahedron=\frac{a^{3}}{6 \sqrt{2}}

Substitute the value of a in above equation we get

Volume=\frac{8^{5}}{6 \sqrt{2}}

            =\frac{512}{6 \sqrt{2}}

            =\frac{512}{6 \times 1.414}

Volume=512 / 8.484=60.35\mathrm{cm}^{3}

Result:

Thus the slant height and volume of tetrahedron are 6.53cm and 60.35\mathrm{cm}^{3}

Carolyn is using the table to find 360% of 15. What values do X and Y represent in her table? Percent Total 100% 100% 100% 20% 2
asambeis [7]

Answer:   c

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the percent breakdown of 360%.

100% 100% 100% 20%20%20%

15.       15.      15.    3.     3.     3.

100% is all of it, so 15. This is x.

20% of it would be calculated as 0.2 x 15 or 3. This is y.

$290, 12.5%, 6 months
Veronika [31]
The information shown here only shows a principal sum, a rate of interest and a period or time. There is no question as to what is needed. But suppose the need is for simple interest, then we calculate using the given information and the formula: I = PRT where I is simple interest, P is the principal, R is the rate per year, and T is time P = 290, T is 6 months which is 0.5 years, R = 12.5 % which is written as 0.125 in decimal fraction. I = 290 × 0.125 x 0.5 → I = 18.125 Therefore after 6 months , the interest earned will be 18. 125 dollars

Three litres of milk cost r29,95 at shop a and two liters of milk cost r15,95 at shop
Savatey [412]
At first shop the 3 liters of milk cost 2995
cost per liter = cost / volume
cost per liter = 2995 / 3 L
cost per liter = 998 per liter of milk

at second shop the two liters of milk cost 1595
 cost per liter = cost / volume
cost per liter = 1595 / 2 L
cost per liter = 797.5 per liter of milk

5. The measures of angles of hexagon are 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x and 9x. Calculate the size of the largest angle
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

166 2/13 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of the interior angles of a convex polygon of n sides is 180(n - 2).

A hexagon has 6 sides, so n = 6.

sum of measures of angles = 180(n - 2) = 180(6 - 2) = 180(4) = 720

4x + 5x + 6x + 7x + 8x + 9x = 720

39x = 720

x = 720/39

x = 240/13

The largest angle has measure 9x.

9x = 9 * 240/13 = 2160/13

2160/13 = 166 2/13

Answer: 166 2/13 deg
