We use Tan in this case:

Tan=(opposite/adjacent)

Tan(36)=23/x

x=23/Tan(36)

x=31.64 length

Hope it helps!

Answer:

x ≈ 31.64

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Trigonometric ratios</u>

\sf \sin(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{H}\quad\cos(\theta)=\dfrac{A}{H}\quad\tan(\theta)=\dfrac{O}{A}

where:

  • \theta is the angle
  • O is the side opposite the angle
  • A is the side adjacent the angle
  • H is the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle)

Given:

  • sin 36° ≈ 0.588
  • cos 36° ≈ 0.809
  • tan 36° ≈ 0.727

The given trigonometric ratios all use the angle of 36°.

From inspection of the given diagram:

  • x is the side <u>adjacent</u> to the angle of 36°
  • 23 is the side <u>opposite</u> to the angle of 36°

Therefore, we should use the <u>tan trig ratio</u>.

\implies \sf \tan(36^{\circ})=\dfrac{23}{x}

\implies \sf x=\dfrac{23}{\tan(36^{\circ})}

Substituting the given value for tan 36°:

\implies \sf x \approx \dfrac{23}{0.727}

\implies \sf x\approx31.64

Doug sold 125 sandwiches to raise money for his boy scout troop. 80% of those sandwiches were sold in his neighborhood. How many
grigory [225]

Answer:

Doug sold 100 sandwiches in his neighborhood.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for percentage you have to first find the percentage's decimal. To find this you have to the move the decimal point up to places. This makes 80 into 0.8. After you do this you will mutiply that but the total amount. So 125 times 0.8. Once you do this you should get 100. This means that Doug sold 100 sandwiches in his neighborhood.
