Answer:
t = 9.57
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use trig functions to solve for the t
Recall the 3 main trig ratios
Sin = opposite / hypotenuse
Cos = adjacent / hypotenuse
Tan = opposite / adjacent.
( note hypotenuse = longest side , opposite = side opposite of angle and adjacent = other side )
We are given an angle as well as its opposite side length ( which has a measure of 18 ) and we need to find its adjacent "t"
When dealing with the opposite and adjacent we use trig ratio tan.
Tan = opp / adj
angle measure = 62 , opposite side length = 18 and adjacent = t
Tan(62) = 18/t
we now solve for t
Tan(62) = 18/t
multiply both sides by t
Tan(62)t = 18
divide both sides by tan(62)
t = 18/tan(62)
t = 9.57
And we are done!
Answer: 4.1 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that New York City is approximately 205 miles from Washington, D.C.
The distance that these cities will appear on a map with the scale 1 in: 50 miles will be represented by x.
Therefore, x:205 = 1:50
Cross multiply
x/205 = 1/50
50x = 205
x = 205/50
x = 4.1 inches
The answer is 4.1 inches
Answer:
4 4/5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to multiply 4/5 * 6
4/5 * 6/1
24/5
We need to change this back to a mixed number
5 goes into 24 4 times (4*5 = 20 with 4 left over)
4 4/5 miles
Answer:
22.45%
To two decimal places
Step-by-step explanation:
A book has 245 pages and she has only read 55 of the pages. To get the percentage:
55/245 and then multiply it by 100.
55/245
=O.2245 (To four decimal places)
0.2245 x 100
22.45% (To two decimal places)
She has only read 22.45% of the book. To convert it to a whole number, that's 22% of the book has been read
