How do you find the surface area and volume of a solid?
Space and Astronomylength × width × height . The volume, V , of any rectangular solid is the product of the length, width, and height. We could also write the formula for volume of a rectangular solid in terms of the area of the base. The area of the base, B , is equal to length×width. How

How do you graph the transformation of a linear function?
Space and AstronomyThe graphs of linear functions can be transformed without changing the shape of the line by changing the location of the y intercept or the slope of the line. Those lines can be transformed by translation, rotation, or reflection, and still follow the slope-intercept form y = mx + b. What is the easiest way

What is a caliper tree measurement?
Space and AstronomyWhat is a caliper on a tree? Caliper size refers to the diameter measurement of a tree’s trunk, taken about six inches above the ground (or from the base of the tree where the roots connect to the trunk). How do you determine the caliper of a tree? Video quote: First again locate diameter breast

What is the volume of the figure?
Space and AstronomyThe volume of a figure is the number of cubes required to fill it completely, like blocks in a box. Volume of a cube = side times side times side. Since each side of a square is the same, it can simply be the length of one side cubed. How do you find the volume

When did Galileo first look through a telescope?
Space and Astronomy1609late 1609, he was astounded by what he saw night after night. All the unexpected sights revealed through his instrument transformed his life and the world at large. When did Galileo first use the telescope? 1609 Galileo made his first telescope in 1609, modeled after telescopes produced in other parts of Europe that could magnify

Is trigonometry more like algebra or geometry?
Space and AstronomyIs trigonometry algebra or geometry? We know that geometry deals with different shapes, sizes, and positions of different shapes. But trigonometry is the subset of geometry, that deals with the properties of one of the shapes in geometry called “Triangle”. Is trigonometry based on algebra? Each angle within a triangle is measured in degrees. In

What is a complementary and supplementary?
Space and AstronomyIf the sum of two angles is 180 degrees then they are said to be supplementary angles, which forms a linear angle together. Whereas if the sum of two angles is 90 degrees, then they are said to be complementary angles, and they form a right angle together. What is a supplementary example? Video quote:

What portion of the electromagnetic spectrum do radio telescopes use?
Space and AstronomyRadio telescopes are used to study radio waves and microwaves between wavelengths of about 10 meters and 1 millimeter emitted by astronomical objects. Radio waves with wavelengths longer than about 10 meters are absorbed and reflected by the Earth’s atmosphere and do not reach the ground. Which portion of the electromagnetic spectrum is used in

What does a rhomboid shape look like?
Space and AstronomyWhat are rhomboids shaped like? Rhomboids, like triangles, may take various different shapes, but they always look like a lopsided diamond or rectangle. As both a noun and an adjective, rhomboid can be applied to anything with those shapes, such as certain muscles of the upper back when viewed from behind. Is rhomboid a regular

How cold is Mars compared to Earth?
Space and AstronomyWhy Mars is so cold Mars’s atmosphere is about 100 times thinner than Earth’s. Without a “thermal blanket,” Mars can’t retain any heat energy. On average, the temperature on Mars is about minus 80 degrees F (minus 60 degrees Celsius) according to NASA. How much colder is Mars compared to Earth? 2001 Mars Odyssey EARTH
