Hi,
*Note: volume of a cube = side^3. %285cm%29%5E3+=+125cm%5E3
perimeter and area of a right triangle if one leg measures 16ft. and the other leg measures 30ft.
Let c represent the hypotenuse and apply Pythagorean Theorem
16ft^2 + 30ft^2 = c^2
256ft^2 + 900ft^2 = c^2
1156ft^2 = c^2
34 ft= c
P = 16ft + 30ft + 34ft = 80ft
A = (1/2)b*h = (1/2)16*30 = 240ft^2
