- Scale model
In a model train set, 1.38 inches represents one foot in real life. The height of One World Trade Center in New York City is 1776 feet. How tall would a scale model of the building be? Should you calculate 1776 x 1.38 or 1776 ÷ 1.38? - Sun rays
If the sun's rays are at an angle of 60°, then the famous Great Pyramid of Egypt (which is now 137.3 meters high) has a 79.3 m long shadow. Calculate the current height of the neighboring Chephren pyramid, whose shadow is measured at the same time at 78.8 - Cone
The circular cone of height 15 cm and volume 5699 cm³ is at one-third of the height (measured from the bottom) cut by a plane parallel to the base. Calculate the radius and circumference of the circular cut. - Cutting cone
A cone with a base radius of 10 cm and a height of 12 cm is given. At what height above the base should we divide it by a section parallel to the base so that the volumes of the two resulting bodies are the same? Express the result in cm.
- Hexagon cut pyramid
Calculate the volume of a regular 6-sided cut pyramid if the bottom edge is 30 cm, the top edge is 12 cm, and the side edge length is 41 cm. - Pizza
Pizza with a diameter of 50 cm weights 559 g. What diameter will a pizza weigh 855 g made from the same cloth (same thickness) and decorated? - Dimensions 4560
The picture frame is made of a 6 cm wide bar. The dimensions of the image are 74 and 57 cm. Are the inner and outer edges of the frame two similar baffles? - Similarity
Rectangle ABCD has dimensions of 7 cm and 6 cm. Rectangle PQRS has dimensions 14 cm and 12 cm. Determine the coefficient of the similarity k of the rectangles; if they aren't similar, enter zero as the coefficient of similarity.
We apologize, but in this category are not a lot of examples.
