<h3>What are trigonometric ratios?</h3>

Trigonometric ratios are defined as the ratio of different sides of a right angle triangle with respect to one angle of the right angled triangle.

Length of the wire = Hypotenuse of the triangle =  X

Base of the triangle = Distance from the bottom of the tower to the point where wire is attached on ground = 20 m

Angle b/w Hypotenuse and Base of triangle = 46°

cos(θ) = Base / Hypotenuse

cos(46) = 20 / X

X = 20 / cos(46)

X = 28.79 m

Hence, the length of the wire is 28.79 m.

Please show work 3d – 4 + d = 8d – (-12)
balandron [24]

Answer:

d = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

3d – 4 + d = 8d – (-12)

3d - 4 + d = 8d + 12

4d - 4 = 8d + 12

(4d - 4d) - 4 = (8d - 4d) + 12

-4 = 4d + 12

-4 - 12 = 4d (+ 12 - 12)

-16 = 4d

-16/4 = 4d/4

d = -4

An angle measures <br> 49°<br> . What is the measure of its complement?
Viktor [21]
Well if t's a right angle then the answer would be 41° but if it's an obtuse angle the it could vary from 91°-179°. For a straight angle, the answer would be 51° and for an acute angle; it could vary from 1°-89° I hope this helped ^^

you have a piece of yarn that is 12 1/2 ft long. You need to cut it into strips that are 1 1/4 ft long. how many strips will you
zysi [14]

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

12.5/10=1.25.

12.5/8=1.56

12.5/12=1.04

12.5/6=2.08

it's important to know what 1/2 is, 1/3 is, 1/4 is and 1/5 it's also important to know things like 2/2, 2/3, 3/3, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, and 5/5. You don't need this until 8th grade though. But get on it if you can. Ask your parents or teacher.

Y=1/3x-3<br> Y=-x+5 <br> How do I solve
ehidna [41]

Since both equations are equal to y, we can just combine them like this:

1/3x-3=-x+5

1/3x=-x+8

4/3x=8 (since x is 1x which is 3/3x)

x=6

Plug x back in:

y=-6+5

y=-1

So x=6 and y=-1

Hope this helped!
