A figure is transformed in the plane such that no point maps to itself. What type of transformation?
It could be a reflection with the mirror line outside the figure; it could be a rotation with the centre of rotation outside the figure; or it could be a translation.
What is the volume of rhombus formula?
pi r squared * * * * * That is such a rubbish answer! A rhombus is a plane figure and, as with any plane figure it is 2 dimensional. That means it cannot have a volume.
What is the measure of the solid line angle depicted by the following figure?
90 degrees
What is the altitude of a equilateral triangle if one side is 6 cm?
An equilateral triangle has all 3 sides the same length. To find the height of a triangle, draw a line from the tip top of the triangle to the middle of the base. You should see 2 triangles now inside your original triangle. We can use Pythagoras' theorem to figure out the length of this line, the height. This theorem will only work with right triangles, which (luckily) we have just created by drawing the height line inside the triangle. The P. theorem says that side squared + side squared = hypotenuse squared. Our hypotenuse is the left or right side of the original triangle, 6 cm. The line we drew down the center is one side, and HALF of the base is the other side for the P. theorem, since the height line of the triangle cuts the base exactly in half, and creates 2 right angles at the base. This line also creates 2 right triangles inside. This is why we can use the P. theorem to help us! But we'll only be using 1 of the inside triangles. (Even though, both are identical) side squared + side squared = hyp. squared (3 cm) squared + ??? squared = 6 squared 9 + ??? squared = 36 ??? squared = 36 - 9 ??? squared = 27 ??? = sqrt(27) We can simplify sqrt(27), or you can use a calculator to approximate it. sqrt(27) = sqrt(9*3) = 3 * sqrt(3)
How do you find the area of a rectangle with only the width?
Measure...is the length twice the width or 3 times. If so, then just multiply that amount, then figure like normal.
What is the measure of the number of square units needed to cover the outside of a figure or solid expressed in units squared.?
It is the surface area of the solid.
What is the measure around the outside of a figure called?
Perimeter.
How to figure square feet in flooring?
Measure the square's in, Area, Perimeter and centimeter squared
How do you figure out if the area or perimeter needs to be squared?
the perimeter of a figure is never squared, but the area of a figure is always squared. Hope this helped :)
Is the volume of a figure squared or cubed?
It is cubed.
How do you figure out the circumference of something without knowing the diameter?
If you know the radius, double that to get diameter. If you have neither radius or diameter, then measure around the outside.
How do you figure out the square root of 29?
Five squared is 25. Six squared is 36. ? squared is 29. (It's between 5 and 6.)
The distance around the outside of a figure?
If the shape is circle then circumference. If any other form (non-symmetrical) then you can measure the area with integration from Calculus.
How do you figure out area of a circle?
pi times radius squared. :)
Why is a solid figure measured in cubic units?
The length, width, or height of a solid figure is measured in units of length. The area of the figure's outside surfaces is measured in squared units of length. The volume of space filled by the figure is measured in cubed units of length. The mass of the figure is measured in units of mass. The weight of the object is measured in units of force. The age of the figure is measured in units of time. etc.
Why does perimeter use square units?
The measure of the perimter of a figure does not use square units. Square units are used to measure the area of a figure. The perimeter of a figure is set down in linear measure, and is simply stated in units of length.An example might be a square of 1 metre on a side. It's area is 1 metre squared, but its perimter is the distance around it, or 1 metre + 1 metre + 1 metre + 1 metre = 4 metres.
What is the difference of surface area and area?
surface area is the like the area of the outside of a 3 dimensional figure, area is the measure of what is inside a 2 dimensional
