Find the surface area of the composite solid. Write your answer as a decimal.

283.5 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a solid is basically just the sum of the areas of all the exterior sides. In this figure, we have 3 congruent triangles at the top, 3 congruent rectangles on the sides, and 1 triangle at the base. We need to find all these areas.

3 congruent triangles:

The area of a triangle is denoted by: A = (1/2) * b * h, where b is the base and h is the height.

Here, the base of one triangle is 10 and the height is 4. So:

A = (1/2) * b * h

A = (1/2) * 10 * 4 = 20

Since there are 3 such triangles, multiply 20 by 3:

20 * 3 = 60 cm squared

3 congruent rectangles:

The area of a rectangle is denoted by: A = lw, where l is the length and w is the width.

Here, the length is 6 and the width is 10, so:

A = lw

A = 6 * 10 = 60

There are 3 such rectangles, so multiply 60 by 3:

60 * 3 = 180 cm squared

1 base triangle:

Again we use the formula A = (1/2) * b * h for this area.

Here, the base is 10 and the height is 8.7, so:

A = (1/2) * b * h

A = (1/2) * 10 * 8.7 = 43.5 cm squared

Add all these together:

60 + 180 + 43.5 = 283.5 cm squared

The answer is thus 283.5 cm squared.

283.5 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

3 rectangles + 3 triangles on top + triangular base

3(10×6) + 3(½×10×4) + (½×10×8.7)

180 + 60 × 43.5

283.5 cm²

wholesale price is the initial price before markup. retail price comes after the markup.

a price of 8 bucks that's marked up by 100%   is

formula: initial price + (percent markup in fraction/decimal)(initial price)

8+(1)(8)

8+8

16

retail price is $16.

call the larger triangle abc

then the smaller triangle cde is similar to abc (all angles are equal, aaa).  

ab is the side that is 36, and we wish to find de, the side corresponding to ab

area_cde = area_abc - area_cde --> area_abc / area_cde = 2

let x=length of de

ratio of areas = (ratio of sides)^2
