Question

Find the slant height of the square pyramid.
width= 16 middle length=15

Answer 1

who many units?

Answer 2

To find the slant height of the square pyramid, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

The slant height can be found by finding the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the width and mid length as the other two sides.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, we have:

slant height^2 = width^2 + mid length^2
slant height^2 = 16^2 + 15^2
slant height^2 = 256 + 225
slant height^2 = 481

Taking the square root of both sides, we have:
slant height = √481

Therefore, the slant height of the square pyramid is approximately 21.93 units (rounded to two decimal places).

Answer 3

The slant height of the square pyramid is approximately 21.93 units.
