Answer:
It means that you take a triangle and make another one but this time it is not the same size of the first one but the same shape. In other words make it bigger or smaller than the first one.
Answer:
41.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is a right triangle, we can use trig functions
cos theta = adj / hyp
cos x = 9/12
Taking the inverse cos of each side
cos ^-1 ( cos x) = cos ^-1 (9/12)
x = 41.41
To the nearest tenth
x = 41.4
There are 47 more because we are find “less” so we subtract to find the answer. 82-35=47
Answer:
feet
Step-by-step explanation:
This question uses special right triangles.
There are two main special triangles to remember.
Attached is a diagram of the triangle. Both the base and the height are the same, so the 14 foot-long ladder is the hypotenuse.
The hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle is equal to
, where k is the side length.
We can solve for the side lengths by using this equation:

Simplifying this equation by dividing both sides by the square root of 2 and rationalizing the denominator, we get

Your side length of the height of the triangle is equal to 7 times the square root of 2.
