The height of an equilateral triangle equals 3√2 times the side length. Using 74 for the square root of 3, what is the approximate height in meters of an equilateral triangle with a side length of 8 meters?(1 point)

$$

To find the height of an equilateral triangle, you can multiply the side length by the square root of 3 divided by 2.

Given that the square root of 3 is approximately 74, we can substitute this value into the formula:

Height = side length * (√3 / 2)

Height ≈ 8 * (74 / 2)

Height ≈ 8 * 37

Height ≈ 296

Therefore, the approximate height in meters of an equilateral triangle with a side length of 8 meters is 296 meters.

The diagonal of a square equals 2–√ times the side length. Using 1.4 for the square root of 2, what is the approximate length in feet from one corner to an opposite corner of a square park that is 700 feet on a side?(1 point)

To find the length of the diagonal of a square, you can multiply the side length by the square root of 2.

Given that the square root of 2 is approximately 1.4, we can substitute this value into the formula:

Diagonal = side length * √2

Diagonal ≈ 700 * 1.4

Diagonal ≈ 980

Therefore, the approximate length in feet from one corner to an opposite corner of a square park that is 700 feet on a side is 980 feet.

Using a number line, what whole number and rational number to the nearest half is 40−−√ between?(1 point)

40−−√ is between
and
.

To determine the whole number and rational number to the nearest half that 40−−√ is between, we first need to find the whole number and the nearest half that 40−−√ is approximately equal to.

To find the whole number, we can round down 40−√ to the nearest whole number.

40−√ is approximately equal to 6.324555...

Rounded down, this becomes 6.

To find the nearest half, we can round the decimal portion of 40−√ to the nearest half.

The decimal portion is 0.324555...

Rounded to the nearest half, this becomes 0.5 since it is closer to 0.5 than to 0.

Therefore, 40−−√ is between the whole number 6 and the rational number 6.5.

To find the whole number, we can round down 58−√ to the nearest whole number.

58−√ is approximately equal to 7.615...

Rounded down, this becomes 7.

To find the nearest half, we can round the decimal portion of 58−√ to the nearest half.

The decimal portion is 0.615...

Rounded to the nearest half, this becomes 0.5 since it is closer to 0.5 than to 0.

Therefore, 58−−√ is between the whole number 7 and the rational number 7.5.
