Answer: Height = 8 m

Step-by-step explanation: We have to find h...

We're given two values

A = 60

B = 15

60 is equal to 1/2 x 15

Solve for h:

h = 60 / (1/2 x 15)

h = 60 divided by 7.5

h = 8

I hope this helps!

What is the missing dimension of a rectangle or prism with the following dimensions and volume? Length 3 cm width 5 cm volume 45

olasank [31]

Hello!

In order to find out the volume of any prism, you are to do length x width x height.

Because we only know the length and the width, we can multiply those to get started. 3 x 5 is 15, so we know that's what we can start with.

Because we know the volume, all we have to do is do h x 15 = volume (45). Now, what is height?

In order to find the height, we must find a number that, when multiplied by 15, equals 45.

So we can try out 3, which when multiplied by 15, equals 45.

That means 3 is your height.

Hope I helped! :)

Cos ( α ) = √ 6/ 6 and sin ( β ) = √ 2/4 . Find tan ( α − β )

Zina [86]

Answer:

$\purple{ \bold{ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = 1.00701798}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\cos( \alpha ) = \frac{ \sqrt{6} }{6} = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{6} } \\ \\ \therefore \: \sin( \alpha ) = \sqrt{1 - { \cos}^{2} ( \alpha ) } \\ \\ = \sqrt{1 - \bigg( {\frac{1}{ \sqrt{6} } \bigg )}^{2} } \\ \\ = \sqrt{1 - {\frac{1}{ {6} }}} \\ \\ = \sqrt{ {\frac{6 - 1}{ {6} }}} \\ \\ \red{\sin( \alpha ) = \sqrt{ { \frac{5}{ {6} }}} } \\ \\ \tan( \alpha ) = \frac{\sin( \alpha ) }{\cos( \alpha ) } = \sqrt{5} \\ \\ \sin( \beta ) = \frac{ \sqrt{2} }{4} \\ \\ \implies \: \cos( \beta ) = \sqrt{ \frac{7}{8} } \\ \\ \tan( \beta ) = \frac{\sin( \beta ) }{\cos( \beta ) } = \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } \\ \\ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = \frac{ \tan \alpha - \tan \beta }{1 + \tan \alpha . \tan \beta} \\ \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{5} - \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } }{1 + \sqrt{5} . \frac{1}{ \sqrt{7} } } \\ \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{35} - 1 }{ \sqrt{7} + \sqrt{5} } \\ \\ \purple{ \bold{ \tan( \alpha - \beta ) = 1.00701798}}$
