Find the Error: A student is finding the measures of the angles in a triangle that have the ratio 4:4:7. Find the mistake and co

rrect it.
4x + 4x + 7x = 180
15x = 180
X = 12

So, the angle measures are 12, 12, and 84.​

Answer:

angles are 48°, 48°, 84°

Step-by-step explanation:

ratio of angles = 4 : 4 : 7 = 4x : 4x : 7x ( x is a multiplier )

the sum of the 3 angles = 180 , then

4x + 4x + 7x = 180 , that is

15x = 180 ( divide both sides by 15 )

x = 12

the student made the error of assuming x = 12 was the size of the 2 equal angles.

the correct angles are

4x = 4 × 12 = 48°

4x = 4 × 12 = 48°

7x = 7 × 12 = 84°

Answer:

84 is the only correct one, the angle measures 12 and 12 should be 48 and 48

sweet-ann [11.9K]
First, subtract 700 from both sides and you are left with .15m≤50
Then divide both sides by .15 and you are left with m ≤ 333.33.  Thus, the limo can only travel 333.33 miles.

What do you notice about the table inputs for the graph of √x?
Airida [17]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

When we talk about the function f(x)=\sqrt{x}, the domain and codomain are generally defaulted to be subsets of the Real set. Once $f:[0,\infty)\to [0,\infty)$ and  $f\subseteq [0,\infty)\times [0,\infty)$ such that $(x,y_1)\in f\wedge(x,y_2)\in f \Rightarrow y_1=y_2$  for $f(x)=\sqrt x$. Therefore,

\[\sqrt{\cdot}: \mathbb R_{\geq 0} \to \mathbb R_{\geq 0} \]

\[x \mapsto \sqrt{x}\]

But this table just shows the perfect square solutions.

An engineer stands 200 feet from a tower and sights the top of the tower at a 45° angle of elevation. Find the height of the tow
Alik [6]
Drawing a diagram of a triangle may be helpful. The hypotenuse is irrelevant, but the vertical leg and the horizontal leg are useful. Since we know the engineer is looking up at a 45 degree angle from a distance of 200 feet, we can label the vertical leg the "opposite", since it is on the opposite side of the angle we are given. The horizontal leg then becomes the "adjacent". You can then use trigonometry to solve for the opposite. 
The options are:
sin(theta)= opposite/hypotenuse
cos(theta)= adjacent/hypotenuse
tan(theta)= opposite/adjacent
Since we don't care about the hypotenuse, the last equation is the one to use. The angle we are given can be substituted in for theta:
tan(45)= x/200
1.61977519= x/200
x= 323.955038 feet
