le cut at their top ends, as shown. Will the side pieces of the frame be parallel? Explain

Answer:

I will assume that the end of the top section if it were cut at 0 degrees would be cut at right angles to the length of the section.  

Joining a top section with a 37 degree end angle to a side piece with a 50 degree end angle will result in the length of the side piece being at an angle of  

37 + 50 = 87 degrees to each other.  

The same will be true for the other side.  

If the sides were parallel, then going up one side, across the top and then down the other side will result in a change of direction of 180 degrees. However, in this frame the direction turns 87 degrees at the first top corner and another 87 degrees at the second top corner. This is a total of  

87 + 87 = 174 degrees instead of 180 degrees.  

The two sides diverge at an angle of  

180 - 174 = 6 degrees from each other as they extend downwards from the top of the frame

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one

Given data

A mechanic makes $350 /week

20% of his income is deducted for taxes

Required

the mechanic's take-home pay for the week

Step two:

let us find 20% of $350

A 30 foot ladder is set against the side of a house so that it reaches up 24 feet. If Alexander grabs the ladder at its base and
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

The answer would be 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

By finding the missing base side on the original triangle (which is 18), we add 10 to that number to find the base side on the second triangle. We can then use the equation "sin(21.04) = x/30" to find the missing length side (21.04 is the degree measurement).

Hope this helps :)
