In mathmatician, the Pythagorean theorem or Pythagoras' theorem is a relation in Euclidean geometry among the three sides of a right triangle. The theorem is named after the Greek mathematician pythagoras.



Question 2: How do you find the surface area of a right rectangular prism? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.

Formula: Area=2(L x W)+2(W x H)+2(H xL)
L=length
W=width
H=high
Right rectaangular prism is all angles are right angles, and opposite of cuboid are equal.

Question 3: How do you find the surface area of a right cylinder? You should use words, pictures, symbols and numerical examples.

A right cylinder is a three-dimensional figure made up of the set of line segments parallel to a line through the two parallel planes and joining congruent circular bases in the two planes.


Formula: H=height of cylinder
B=area of base
C=circumference of the base
Volume=BH
Lateral surface area=HC
Total surface area=2B=HC


















That how you find cylinder surface area.
SA: 2(3.14)(4 x4)+2(3.14)(4)(10)
=6.28 x 16+ 6.28 x 4
=100.28 + 251.2
= 351.48 cm2


Question4: What is a polygon and how do we classify one?

Irregular polygons have sides of differing lengths and angles of differing
measure. unless all the sides of the polygon are the same length and all
the angles are the same measure the polygon is said to be irregular.

If all the sides and all the angles of a polygon are equal the polygon is
said to be irregular
