First you set up an equation using a variable:
x + 5x = 90° (complementary angles = 90°)
6x = 90
x = 15 (also the measure of the smaller angle)

now plug in x to find the larger angle:
5(15) = 75°

60 degrees,60 degrees,4cm Do the following conditions make a unique triangle, more than one triangle or no triangle possible?
babunello [35]

NOT NECESSARILY would a triangle be equilateral if one of its angles is 60 degrees. To be an equilateral triangle (a triangle in which all 3 sides have the same length), all 3 angles of the triangle would have to be 60°-angles; however, the triangle could be a 30°-60°-90° right triangle in which the side opposite the 30 degree angle is one-half as long as the hypotenuse, and the length of the side opposite the 60 degree angle is √3/2 as long as the hypotenuse. Another of possibly many examples would be a triangle with angles of 60°, 40°, and 80° which has opposite sides of lengths 2, 1.4845 (rounded to 4 decimal places), and 2.2743 (rounded to 4 decimal places), respectively, the last two of which were determined by using the Law of Sines: "In any triangle ABC, having sides of length a, b, and c, the following relationships are true: a/sin A = b/sin B = c/sin C."¹

Q # 4 anybody help me please
Marysya12 [62]

<u>Answer</u>

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5


<u>Explanation</u>

√5 = 2.236

-1 ⇒ this is less than 1.  

-5/3 = -1.666667    this is less than 1.  -5/3 < -1

0.7 > -1

√2 = 1.414        ⇒     √5 > √2

Arranging them from the least to the greatest;

-5/3, -1,  0.7,  √2,   √5

Simplify: log81/8 + 2log2/3 - 3log 3/2 +log 3/4​
MissTica

Answer:

0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the laws of logarithms:

log81/8 + 2log2/3 - 3log 3/2 + log 3/4​

= log 81/8 + log (2/3)^2 - log (3/2)^3 + log 3/4

= log 81/8 + log 4/9 - log 27/8 + log 3/4

= log 81/8 + log 4/9 - (log 27/8 - log 3/4)

= log (81/8 *  4/9) - log (27/8 * 4/3)

= log 9/2 - log 9/2

= 0.

You need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you bake.
marta [7]

Answer:

Sticks of butter : 2

Number of cookies : 40

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given that :You need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you bake.</em>

<em>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Sticks of butter                    Number of cookies</em>

<em>  3                                           24</em>

<em>  x                                             16</em>

<em>5                                                 y</em>

<em>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Let the unknown be x and y..</em>

<em>Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back</em>

<em>Then 24/3 = 8</em>

<em>Since the number of cookies is 16 then 16/8 = 2</em>

<em>Thus x = 2</em>

<em>Next for y.</em>

<em>Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back</em>

<em>Then 5 * 8 = 40</em>

<em>Thus, y = 40</em>

<em>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>

<em>Completed table below:</em>

<em>Sticks of butter                    Number of cookies</em>

<em>  3                                           24</em>

 2    <em>                                         16</em>

<em>5                                                 </em><em>40</em>

<em>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------</em>
