If the area of a rectangle is 11.5 square meters what are the dimensions?

You can't tell. The area doesn't tell you the dimensions. There are an infinite number of possible pairs of length/width measurements. The only thing you know for sure is that whatever the length and width are, you get 11.5 when you multiply them.


If the width of the triangle is 8 how do you find the length?

# You could use the Pythagorean theorem (a2+b2=c2) if you have the measurements of the other two sides. # If the triangle is a right triangle, and you have either the measurement of one of the sides and the angle of one of the sides, then you can use sine, cosine, or tangent to find it. Other than that, I am not sure if it is mathematically possible.

How do you estimate the range of a shooter from bullet penetration depth?

First make sure that the bullet did not penetrate completly throught the material. Then use a thin rod to measure the depth of penetration in centimeters. Find out the type of bullet that penetrated, the gun type used and the material penetrated. Then use these linear equations represented by ballistic fingerprinting to subsitute y for depth of penetration per material. Find x, the energy used.


The length of the rectangle below is 26.63 inches. If the diagonal makes an angle of 42.6 and ordm with this side find the measure of the width of the rectangle rounded to the nearest tenth of an inch?

The diagonal creates a right angled triangle with one pair of long and short sides - the diagonal is the hypotenuse. We know the angle between the long side (adjacent) and hypotenuse as 42.6°; We want to find the length of the short (width) side (opposite). We can use the Tan ratio: tan = opposite/adjacent → opposite = adjacent × tan → width = 26.63 in × tan 42.6° = 24.487... in → width is 24.5 inches to the nearest tenth of an inch.

What is the volume of a rectangular prism with a length of 5.6 a width of 2.1 and a height of 6.6?

The volume is the product of (length) times (width) times (height).Just make sure to have all three measurements in the same unit.


The pool is 28' round by 52 high and is basically full I am not sure how many gallons that would equate to?

Here's a formula for round pools: distance across*distance across*depth*5.9 for rectangles: length*width*depth*7.5 or for a deep end: length*width*((shallow end depth + deep end depth)/2)*7.5 so in your case, 28*28*4.3*5.9=20000 gallons

What is the capacity of a closet shelf?

To get the capacity (area) of a closet shelf, multiply the length of the shelf by the width of the shelf. Make sure that that both measurements are in the same units. i.e. bithe should be in inches, or feet, or centimeters. If you use different measurements, the resulting value will be wrong.


The playground is 125 feet long and 60 feet wide you want the mulch to be at least 6 inches how much mulch you need deliver?

You want to order your mulch in cubic feet, so multiply length x width x depth and that's the answer. (Make sure ALL the measurements are in feet.)125 x 60 x .5 = 3750 cubic feet


How would someone measure their refrigerator to find the correct counter depth?

You would need to measure the space from the wall from where the back of the refrigerator will be out to the edge of the nearest cabinet. Measure it twice to make sure you have the right measurements. Also don't forget that refrigerators need ventilation space. So when you get to the store check the brand you are looking at and see what the requirement is as to how far away from the wall it must sit. Then you will be able to adjust your measurements to meet the requirements. And don't forget to measure the height and width of your space too.


How many square feet in a room 20ft by 15ft by 10 ft deep?

Not sure which dimension is which. Normally, the square footage of a room is calculated from its length and width, and not height. However, this question gives depth! Is it a dungeon? Anyway, assuming that the depth is the height, the square footage is 20*15 = 300 sq ft
