Answer:

Answer:

Area of cross-section is9\pi in^(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a cone and a plane parallel to base intersect the cone at the mid point of points between A and B.

We have to find the area of cross-section formed by intersection of the plane and the cone which is a new circle formed.

Given,   height=20 in

             radius=6 in

By mid point theorem i.e the line segment formed by joining the mid points of two side of triangle is parallel to third equal to half of the third side.

therefore new circle formed is of radius 3 in

Hence, area of cross-section formed by intersection of the plane and the cone which is a new circle formed= \pir^(2)

                                                        = 3^(2)\pi

                                                        =9\piin^(2)

An employee worked 160.5 hours in may, 165.75 hours in June and 152.25 hours in july. What was the average number of hours you worked each month?

Answers

To find the average, you have to add everything up and divide by the amount that you have. In this case, you need to add together 160.5, 165.75 and 152.25, and then divide by 3.
160.5+165.75+152.25= 478.5
You've then got to divide this by three.
478.5/3= 159.5
Therefore, the average hour worked each month bu the employee is 159.5
