Abigail has a cylindrical candle mold with the dimensions shown. If Abigail has a rectangular block of wax
measuring 16 cm by 12 cm by 17 cm, about how many candles can she make after melting the block of
wax? Round to the nearest tenth.
3.3 cm
6 cm
Abigail can make
candles, because
of a candle would not make an entire candle.

Abigail can make about 16 candles because 0.4 of a candle would not make an entire candle.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the Wax, it’s

V=Bh

V= l*w*h

= 15 cm * 11cm * 18 cm

= 2,970 cm^3

For the Mold, it’s

V=Bh

= r^2h

= * (3.1 cm)^2 * 6

= about 181 cm^3

Then you divide to find out how many candles you can make.

2,970 cm^3/181= 16.4

Hope this helps!

1gm = 1000mg so 0.1gm = 1000mg

first, convert the weight to kg

160lb * 1kg/2.2lb = 72.7kg

next, the dose

72.7kg * 100mg/kg = 7270mg

proofs involving isosceles triangles often require special consideration because an isosceles triangle has several distinct properties that do not apply to normal triangles.(more about triangle types) therefore, when you are trying to prove that two triangles are congruent, and one or both triangles, are isosceles you have a few theorems that you can use to make your life easier.

step-by-step explanation:

an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles. the congruent angles are called the base angles and the other angle is known as the vertex angle. ∠bac and ∠bca are the base angles of the triangle picture on the left. the vertex angle is ∠abc
