An artist wants to make a small monument in the shape of a square base topped by a right triangle, as shown below. The square base will be adjacent to one leg of the triangle. The other leg of the triangle will measure 2 feet and the hypotenuse will be 5 feet. (a) Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of a side of the square base. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. (b) Find the exact area of the face of the square base.
A copper casting is in the shape of a prism with an equilateral triangle base. The length of each base side is 17.80 centimeters, and the casting height is 16.23 centimeters. Copper weighs 8.8 grams per cubic centimeter. Determine the weight of the casting in kilograms. One kilogram equals 1000 grams. Round the answer to 2 decimal places.
Enclosing a field You have 16 miles of fence that you will use to enclose a rectangle field. a.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 3 miles and length 5 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? b.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 2 miles and length 6 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? c.The first two parts of this exercise are designed to show you that you can get different areas for the rectangle of the sane perimeter, 16 miles. In general, if you arrange the 16 miles of fence into a rectangle of width w miles, then it will enclose an area of A=w8-w square miles. iMake a graph of the area enclosed as a function of w, and explain what the graph is showing. iiWhat width w should you use to enclose the most area? iiiWhat is the length of the maximum-area rectangle that you made, and what kind of figure do you have?
