Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Decreasing a percentage from a number can be done by multiplying said number and percentage together. That being said:

16 * 25% = 4

Meaning that the result of the number 16 being decreased by 25% is 4

What is the value of x?

Lerok [7]

Answer:

3√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse of an isosceles right triangle is √2 times the side length.

x = 3√2

_____

All these triangles are similar, so the ratio of hypotenuse to leg is the same for all.

hypotenuse/leg = x/3 = (3+3)/x

x² = 3·6 = 3²·2 . . . . cross multiply (identify square factors)

x = 3√2 . . . . . take the square root

Answer:

74.31353

=74 m

Step-by-step explanation:

given that three locations are marked next to a river. Points B and C are on the same side of the river, and point A is on the other side of the river. To find the distance AB across a river, a distance BC of 241 meters is laid off on one side of the river. It is found that the angle at point B is 108.6° and the angle at point C is 14.9°.

we have information about triangle ABC as side BC =241, Angle B = 108.6 and angle C = 14.9 degrees.

Hence this is an obtuse scalene triangle.

Angle ∠A = 56.5° (III angle)

Using sine formula we get

$\frac{AB}{sin 14.6} =\frac{BC}{sin 56.5} \\AB = 74.31353$

So distance AB is 74 metres.
