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

Three groups of schoolchildren receive three different types of reading instruction for a school year. At the end of the year, s
ollegr [7]

Answer:

types of reading instruction - independent variable

reading comprehension of students - dependent variable

Explanation:

When it comes to the "experimentation" of  a study, there are factors or variables that are being considered. These are <em>"independent variable</em>" and <em>"dependent variable."</em>

Independent variable refers to the variable that is being controlled. This affects the dependent variable. The influence of the independent variable on the dependent variable is <u>very important.</u>

So, in the situation above, the independent variable is the "types of reading instruction for a school year" while the dependent variable is the "reading comprehension" of the students.

<em>This means that the reading comprehension of the students will largely depend on the types of reading material.</em>

Thus, this explains the answer.
