The picture in the attached figure

we know that
in the right triangle ABD
AB²=BD²+AD²-----> BD²=AB²-AD²
AB=8
AD=64/17
BD²=8²-(64/17)²----> 64-(4096/289)----> BD²=14400/289
BD=√(14400/289)-----> BD=120/17

sin A=BD/AB-----> sin A=(120/17)/8----> 15/17

the answer is
15/17

Answer:

b) 15/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that ΔABD is a right triangle with AB the hypotensue. The sine of an angle is the ratio of

opposite leg

hypotenuse

. In ΔABD you can solve for the opposite leg (BD) using the Pythagorean Theorem.

BD2 + [64/17)2 = 82

BD =

120

17

. Therefore, sin A =

15

17

Convert the fraction 7 24 into a repeating decimal.
goldenfox [79]
\dfrac7{24}=\dfrac6{24}+\dfrac1{24}=\dfrac14+\dfrac1{24}

\dfrac1{24}=\dfrac1{8\time3}=\dfrac a8+\dfrac b3=\dfrac{3a+8b}{24}
\implies3a+8b=1

We can choose a=-1 and b=\dfrac12, so that

\dfrac1{24}=-\dfrac18+\dfrac16

Recalling that \dfrac13=0.333\ldots, it follows that \dfrac16=0.166\ldots. So,

\dfrac1{24}=0.125+0.166\ldots=0.04166\ldots
\implies\dfrac7{24}=0.25+0.4166\ldots=0.29166\ldots
