A student was asked to find the slant height of a square pyramid if the length of each side of the base is 28 cm and the height is 22 cm. She incorrectly said the slant height is 71 cm Find the slant height of the pyramid What mistake might the student have made?

hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

d = distance between moon and sun, which in this problem is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  

the distance y is the side opposite to angle x in the right triangle.   use the definition of the sine function from basic trigonometry.

sin(x) = y/d ⇒

d = y/sin(x)

answer: 1 and 3

answer: what are the answer choices?

step-by-step explanation:

measurement of the swimming pool is given as = 7 yards 4.79 feet

first we will convert this to yards only.

1 foot = 0.33 yards

so, 4.79 feet = yards

so total yards are = yards

now we will convert this in meters.

1 yard = 0.914 meters

8.580 yards = meters

0.842 m = 0.842*100 = 84.2 cm

this becomes 7 meters and 84.2 cm

hence, the pool is 7 meters and 84.2 cm wide.
