Find the lateral area for the pyramid with the equilateral base. 144 sq. units 180 sq. units 288 sq. units

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is the correct answer.

Explanation:

 The given pyramid has 3 lateral triangular side as shown below.

 Base of triangle = 12 unit

 We need to find perpendicular.

  By Pythagoras theorem we have

            Perpendicular² = 10²-6²

           Perpendicular = 8 unit

So area of 1 lateral triangle = 1/2 x Base x Perpendicular.

                                             = 1/2 x 12 x 8 = 48 unit²

Area of lateral side = 3 x 48 = 144 unit²    

Option A is the correct answer.                

it would be:

c.parallelogram.

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.
