The surface area of the triangular prism is 120[tex]cm^2[/tex]

Now, According to the question:

A triangular prism is a polyhedron with a triangle for a base, thus it is a three-sided prism. Given that the triangle has three sides and a height of h, the surface area would be A = Ph + ab where P is the perimeter of the triangle.

We have :

A right triangular prism has a triangular base with legs of 5 centimeters and 12 centimeters and a hypotenuse of 13 centimeters.

Now,

Hypotenuse  = 13

a = 5 cm

b = 12 cm

h = 2 cm

The perimeter of the triangle is the sum of all the sides or:

P = 13 + 5 + 12

P = 30 cm

To get the surface area, substitute the values in the formula below:

A = Ph + ab

A = (30)(2) + (5)(12)

A = 60 + 60

A = 120

The vector equation for the line of intersection of the planes x+4y-4z=-3 and x + z = 5 is r = <5, -2, 0> + t <-1, 5/4, 1>

The equations of the planes are:

x + 4y - 4z = -3                    ..............(1)

and x + z = 5                      .............(2)

Subtract equation (2) from equation (1),

( x + 4y - 4z + 3) - (x + z - 5 ) = 0

4y - 5z + 8 = 0

we can rewrite is as,

4y = 5z - 8

y = 5/4 z - 8/4

y = 5/4 z - 2                  ...............(3)

Here, we don't have enough equations to uniquely solve for either y or z. So, we set z = t, where t can be any real number.

The variable t is the free parameter for the parametrization of the line.

Substitute z = t in equation (3) we get,

y = 5/4 t - 2        

From equation (2),

x = 5 - z

For z = t,

x = 5 - t

Thus, the parametrization of the line would be,

(x, y, z) = (5 - t, -2 + 5/4 t , t)

By using the equation of the line of best fit, the​ number of minutes Nikki would need to listen to the radio is equal to 63.275 minutes.

In order to determine the​ number of minutes Nikki would need to listen to the radio, we would have to substitute the value representing the number of commercials (y) into the linear equation and then evaluate as follows;

y = 0.338x − 1.387

When the value of y = 20 commercials, the number of minutes (x) in feet is given by;

20 = 0.338x − 1.387

By rearranging and collecting like terms, we have the following:

0.338x = 20 + 1.387

0.338x = 21.387

Number of minutes (x) = 21.387/0.338

A unit can be used for measurement, and is commonly found in mathematics to describe length, size, etc.

Because we are dealing with different units here, we first would need to know how many inches are in one foot.

1 foot = 12 inches

Now that we know how many inches are in a foot, we can convert the length and width of the room from feet to inches.

6 feet = 72 inches

10 feet = 120 inches

Taking these numbers, we now need to figure out the area of the floor.

72 × 120 = 8640

Now, find the area of each tile.

6 × 8 = 48

Taking 8640, we can now divide that by 48 to get the number of tiles needed.

The expression representing the total amount paid by Joshua at the register is 1.007x dollars.

We have,

To represent the total amount that Joshua paid at the register, we need to account for the following steps:

- Applying the 5% discount to the original price x:

Discount = 5% of x = 0.05x

Calculating the price after the discount:

Price after discount = x - Discount = x - 0.05x = 0.95 x

Adding the 6% tax to the discounted price:

Tax = 6% of the discounted price = 0.06 x (0.95x)

The expression for the total amount that Joshua paid at the register:

Total amount paid

= Price after discount + Tax

= 0.95 x + 0.06 (0.95 * x)

Simplifying the expression:

Total amount paid = 0.95x + 0.057x

Total amount paid = 1.007x

To calculate the distance between an observer and a location on the ground when the observer is looking down from a tower or structure. It is mostly utilized in the construction industry.

Given, Jill and Jessica are bike riding at the park. Jill rides her bike around the two edges of the rectangular park while Jessica takes the shortcut

Given the length of the Rectangular park = 100m

The width of the park =  60m

Thus jill ride total = 60 + 100

Jill ride total = 160m

Jessica took a shortcut since she rides diagonally.

From the Pythagorean theorem:

hypotaneus² = base² + height²

total distance Jessica covers = √(60² + 100²)

total distance Jessica covers = √3600 + 10000

total distance Jessica covers = √13600

total distance Jessica covers = 116.61

The length of side AB rounded to two decimal places is 16.25.

In a right angle triangle, the side on the base of the angle in question is divided by the hypotenuse. In this case, we can use the cosine ratio to find the length of AB.

We are provided with the following information,

C is the right angle, C= 90°

A= 52°

AC = 10. 01

sin 52° = 0. 788

cos 52° = 0. 616

tan 52° = 1. 280

Now,

since angle C is the right angle, AB is the hypotenuse.

Therefore, with respect to Angle A, AC will be the base and BC will be the perpendicular.

We know, cos x= base/hypotenuse

In this case, cos A = AC / AB

cos 52° = 10. 01/ AB

AB = 10. 01 / 0. 616
