To answer this, we let x some factor that would agree or make the ratio given true. We calculate as follows:
<span>2:3:4
2x:3x:4x
2x = 12
x = 6
Therefore, the length of the longest side would be 4x = 4(6) = 24 cm, third option.</span>
Depends on where you are in the math book but this would be the most simple way.
n= number
sqar(-1) = i
Answer:
This is a 30-60-90 triangle so you would do this formula:
Short side (opposite the 30 degree angle) = x.
Hypotenuse (opposite the 90 degree angle) = 2x.
Long side (opposite the 60 degree angle) = x√3.
Step-by-step explanation:
The tangent of an angle is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.
... tan(45°) = (height above eye level)/(20 m)
... height above eye level = (20 m)·tan(45°) = (20 m)·1 = 20 m
_____
Eye level is 1.7 m above ground, so the height of the flagpole above ground is
... height of pole = height above eye level + height of eye level
... height of pole = 20 m + 1.7 m = 21.7 m
