Answer:
24 units
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle was dilated by a scale factor of 6. If sin a° = four fifths and segment DE measures 30 units, how long is segment EF?
triangle DEF in which angle F is a right angle, angle D measures a degrees, and angle E measures b degrees
15.5 units
24 units
30 units
37.5 units
From the description:
angle D measures a degrees
opposite to angle D is side EF
side DE (which measures 30 units) is the hypotenuse of the triangle.

From definition:
Replacing:
we know that in direct variation as x increase y also increases.
in indirect variation x decreases y increase and vice versa.
in part a we have x at top (numerator ) and y at denominator it mean indirect variation (as x increases y decreases).
to find k we know that for indirect variation xy=k
if we rewrite the equation x=9/y we get xy=9
which mean k=9 .
in part b we have 4xy=20 if we simplify this equation we get
so here if we rewrite in terms of x.
we get x=5/y which represents indirect variation.
and we know xy=k
we have xy=5 .so k=5
