The length of the hypotenuse and the opposite side to angle x of the right triangle are 8 cm and 3 cm respectively, which gives angle x as approximately 22.0°

<h3>Which of the trigonometric ratios can be used to find x°?</h3>

A description of the parts of the triangle are;

Length of the hypotenuse side = 8 cm

Length of the opposite side to x° = 3 cm

The trigonometric ratio of the sine of x° is presented as follows;

$sin(x) = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$

Therefore;

$sin(x) = \frac{3}{8}$

Which gives;

${x}^{ \circ} = arcsine \left( \frac{3}{8} \right) \approx {22.0}^{ \circ}$

Angle x ≈ 22.0°

lisa drank 1/3 quart of orange juice and lane drank 1/2 quart of orange juice. how many quarts did they drink together

mezya [45]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{6}$ quarts

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of drinks = $\frac{1}{3}$ + $\frac{1}{2}$

You would want to make the denominators the same before adding them, so I will multiply the first fraction by 2 and the second one by 3 so their denominators are 6.

$\frac{1}{3}$ + $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{2}{6}$ + $\frac{3}{6}$

Now we can directly add them together while keeping the denominator the same.

$\frac{2}{6}$ + $\frac{3}{6}$ = $\frac{5}{6}$ quarts

Find the value of sin(a/2) if cosa= 12/13

daser333 [38]

Answer: sin $\frac{a}{2}$ = ± $\frac{1}{\sqrt{26} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

We very well know that,

cos2A=1−2sin²A

⟹ sinA = ± $\sqrt{(1-} \frac{cos2A}{2} )$

As required, set A = $\frac{a}{2}$ & cos a= $\frac{12}{13}$ ,thus we get

sin $\frac{a}{2}$ =± $\sqrt{\frac{1-cos a}{2} }$

∴ sin $\frac{a}{2}$ =± $\sqrt{\frac{1-\frac{12}{13} }{2} }$ = ± $\frac{1}{\sqrt{26} }$

since ,360° < $\frac{a}{2}$ <450°

,180° < $\frac{a}{2}$ <225°

Now, we are to select the value with the correct sign. It's is obvious from the above constraints that the angle a/2 lies in the III-quadrant where 'sine' has negative value, thus the required value is negative.

hope it helped!

Brad has two lengths of copper pipe to fit together. one has a length of 2 5/12 feet and the other has a length of 3 7/12 feet.

elena-s [515]

To find all of the feet of pipe that Brad has, you add both of the lengths of the pipes together. So 2 5/12+3 7/12. Add the numbers together first, 5. Then add the fractions, 5/12+7/12=1. So add 5 and 1 and you get 6 feet of pipe. Hope this helps.
