The best way to find it is to reduce each ratio you work with to its
lowest terms,and see which ones are equal. To reduce a ratio to its
lowest terms, divide each number by their greatest common factor.
First, the one that you're trying to match: <u>49:35</u> .
The greatest common factor of 49 and 35 is 7 .
Divide each number by 7 . . . <em>7:5</em> . . . <u>that's</u> what you have to match.
<u>7:4</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>14:25</u>
Again, their greatest common factor is '1 '.
No help at all, and this one is not it.
<u>21:15</u>
Their greatest common factor is ' 3 '.
Divide both numbers by 3 . . . <em>7:5 </em>.
That's it !
Answer: a) BC = 1386.8 ft
b) CD = 565.8 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Looking at the triangle,
AD = BD + 7600
BD = AD - 7600
Considering triangle BCD, we would apply the the tangent trigonometric ratio.
Tan θ = opposite side/adjacent side. Therefore,
Tan 24 = CD/BD = CD/(AD - 700)
0.445 = CD/(AD - 700)
CD = 0.445(AD - 700)
CD = 0.445AD - 311.5 - - - - - - - -1
Considering triangle ADC,
Tan 16 = CD/AD
CD = ADtan16 = 0.287AD
Substituting CD = 0.287AD into equation 1, it becomes
CD = 0.445AD - 311.5
0.287AD = 0.445AD - 311.5
0.445AD - 0.287AD = 311.5
0.158AD = 311.5
AD = 311.5/0.158
AD = 1971.52
CD = 0.287AD = 0.287 × 1971.52
CD = 565.8 ft
To determine BC, we would apply the Sine trigonometric ratio which is expressed as
Sin θ = opposite side/hypotenuse
Sin 24 = CD/BC
BC = CD/Sin24 = 565.8/0.408
BC = 1386.8 ft
