Remember, all the interior angles of a triangle equals 180.
So in triangle ABC, it already gives us two out of the three angles.
First, we add 52 and 36 and that gives us 88.
Now we subtract 88 from 180.
180 - 88 = 92
So that means that ∠ABC is 92°
Now we have to look at triangle DEF.
The equation says that triangle DEF is similar to triangle ABC.
Looking at the picture, triangle DEF is smaller and is flipped upside down.
So that means that ∠ABC ≈ ∠DEF
In similar triangles, the measurements of angles does NOT change. Just the side length.
So since ∠ABC = 92° that means that ∠DEF = 92°
For #11 you add 54 + 59+ 57+ 54. Then you have 224. Then divide 224 by 4 since there are 4 numbers. Your answer should be 56 inches as the average, or mean.
Remember, when you divide, you divide by the number of all the numbers. I'm trying to make sense but hope this helps!
Answer:
BC = 5.87
Step-by-step explanation:
Reference angle = 50°
Side Opposite to reference angle = 7
Adjacent side = BC = ?
Apply trigonometric function, TOA, thus:
Tan 50 = Opp/Adj
Tan 50 = 7/BC
BC × Tan 50 = 7
BC = 7/Tan 50
BC = 5.87369742 ≈ 5.87 (nearest hundredth)
