Question

The right isosceles triangle shown is rotated about line k with the base forming perpendicular to k. The perimeter of the triangle is 58 units. Which best describes the resulting three-dimensional shape?

Answer 1

Answer:

The new shape will be cone with a radius of 17 units, tilt height 24 and units of height k.

Step-by-step explanation:

The image related to the exercise is necessary, to be able to solve therefore the attached one.

We have the following information:

Perimeter of the triangle = 58 units

Hypotenuse = 24 units

We have that the other two sides are equal and have x units, therefore we have the following:

x + x + 24 = 58

2 * x = 58-24

2 * x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

Now the triangle rotates around line k , and then it will result in a cone, which is a three-dimensional shape.

Therefore, the new shape will be cone with a radius of 17 units, tilt height 24 and units of height k.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cone with a radius of 17 units
