How is it that a square is a rectangle but a rectangle ins't a square?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: beacuse A square by definition is a "plane figure having four equal sides." Rectangles' sides are not equal and hence cannot be a square.

A rectangle by definition is a "four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles" - which also implies that a square can be a rectangle because it is also a four-sided plane figure with 4 right angles...... hope this helps

Answer 2

Answer: The definition of a square is a plane figure with four equal straight sides and four right angles. The definition of a rectangle is a plane figure with four right sides and four right angles. To be a rectangle you just need four straight sides and four right angles, but to be a square all those sides have to be equal. Therefore, a square is a rectangle because it has four straight sides and four right angles, but a rectangle isn't a square (or not always) because it doesn't have four equal straight sides.

What is the pair for p(x)=(x-2)^2-2

Answers

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming you are looking for the pair that represents the vertex of the polynomial

$p(x) = {(x - 2)}^(2) - 2$

Then we compare to the vertex form:

$p(x) = a {(x - h)}^(2) + k$

whose vertex is given by x=h, y=k.

By comparing, we have x=2 , and y=-2.

The ordered pair representing the vertex is (2,-2)

Which equation finds the volume of a cube with a side length of 2 n Superscript 6 units?(2 n Superscript 6 Baseline) cubed = 8 n Superscript 18 cubic units
(2 n Superscript 6 Baseline) cubed = 2 n Superscript 18 cubic units
2 (n Superscript 6 Baseline) cubed = 2 n Superscript 18 cubic units
2 (n Superscript 6 Baseline) cubed = 6 n Superscript 18 cubic units

Answers

Answer:

Volume of the cube: $8n^(18)$

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is a solid figure consisting of 6 squared faces arranged in a structure at right angle with each other.

The volume of a cube is given by:

$V=L^3$

where

V is the volume

L is the length of one side of the cube

In this problem, the length of the side of the cube is

$L=2n^6$

Therefore, the volume of the cube is

$V=(2n^6)^3 = 2^3 (n^6)^3 = 8n^(18)$
