(a)
To identify: The given solid figure.
Answer to Problem 1P
The given solid figure is a
Explanation of Solution
From the given figure, observe that the given solid object has 6 equal sized square faces with three meeting at each vertex.
It is known that. a cube is a three dimensional object with 6 identical square faces with three edges meeting at each vertex.
Therefore, the given solid figure is a
(b)
To identify: The given solid figure.
Answer to Problem 1P
The given solid figure is a
Explanation of Solution
From the given figure, observe that the given solid object has 2 identical ends and 6 faces that are rectangles.
It is known that. a prism is a solid object with 2 identical ends and flat sides and a rectangular prism is a solid object with 6 faces are rectangles.
Therefore, the given solid figure is a
(c)
To identify: The given solid figure.
Answer to Problem 1P
The given solid figure is a
Explanation of Solution
It is known that the frustum of a cone is formed from a right circular cone by cutting of the tip of the cone in such a way that the cut is perpendicular to the height and forms the lower base and the upper base are circular and parallel.
From the given figure, observe that the given solid object is a cone and has an upper and a lower circular base with the upper base is parallel.
Therefore, the given solid figure is a

- Finding Dimensions At a glassware factory, molten cobalt glass is poured into molds to make paperweights. Each mold is a rectangular prism whose height is 3inches greater than the length of each side of the square base. A machine pours 20cubic inches of liquid glass into each mold. What are the dimensions of the mold?arrow_forwardWidth of a Lawn A factory is to be built on a lot measuring 180 ft by 240 ft. A local building code specifies that a lawn of uniform width and equal in area to the factory must surround the factory. What must the width of this lawn be, and what are the dimensions of the factory?arrow_forwardGeometry The surface area S of the circular cylinder shown in the figure is s=2(25)+2(5h) Find the height h of the cylinder when the surface area is 471 square feet.

- Construction Costs The town of Foxton lies 10 mi north of an abandoned east-west road that runs through Grimley, as shown in the figure. The point on the abandoned road closed to Foxton is 40 mi from Grimley. Country officials are about to build a new road connecting the two towns. They have determined that restoring the old road would cost 100,000 per mile, while building a new road would cost 200, 000 per mile. How much of the abandoned road should be used as indicated in the figure if the officials intend to spend exactly 6.8 million? Would it cost less than this amount to build a new road connecting the towns directly?arrow_forwardAPPLICATIONS An Ancient Chinese Problem This problem is taken from a Chinese mathematics textbook called Chui-Chang suan-shu, or Nine Chapters on the Mathematical Art, which was written about 250 B.C.
