Question

PLEASE HELP ME WITH NUMBER 2 ASAP!!! Please help me solve this right now!

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 17.55 (rounded to nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slant length = $\sqrt{a^{2}+b^{2}}$

We just need to put in the values that we know first.

18 = $\sqrt{4^{2}+x^{2}}$

18 = $\sqrt{16+x^{2} }$

18² = 16 + x²

324 = 16 + x²

x² = 324 - 16

   = 308

x = $\sqrt{308}$

x = 17.55 (rounded to nearest hundredth)

Answer 2

Answer:

17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the pythagorean theorem, c would be 18 due to it being the diagonal side.

4^2+x^2=18^2

16+x^2=324

324-16=308

take the square root of 308 and you'll get the answer
