What is the length of EF?

Mathematics
1 answer:
pantera1 [17]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  (a)  3.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines can be used to find a missing side length in a triangle where the angles are known and at least one side is given. It tells you the ratio of side lengths is equal to the ratio of the sines of their opposite angles. In effect, longer sides are opposite larger angles.

__

<h3>compare angles</h3>

The given side length (DE=3) is opposite given angle F=50°. The unknown side length EF is opposite larger angle D=75°.

<h3>compare sides</h3>

Since the unknown side is opposite a larger angle than the other angle given, the length of the unknown side will be longer than the side given.

  EF > DE

  EF > 3

Only one answer choice satisfies this inequality.

  EF = 3.8

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you want to do the actual computation, we have ...

  EF/sin(D) = DE/sin(F)

  EF = DE·sin(D)/sin(F) = 3·sin(75°)/sin(50°) ≈ 3.7828

  EF ≈ 3.8

Use function notation to represent how much the volume of the box (in cubic inches) changes by if the cutout length increases fr
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

Increases 64 times

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box can be calculated using formula

V=l\cdot w\cdot h,

where

V = volume,

l = length,

w = width,

h = height

If the length was 0.3 inches, then the volume was

V_1=0.3\cdot w\cdot h=0.3wh

When the length became 1.2 inches, then all dimensions became 1.2 :0.3 =4 times greater, then the volume was

V_2=1.2\cdot (4w)\cdot (4h)=19.2wh

The volume increases

\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}=\dfrac{1.92wh}{0.3wh}=64 times
