Total length of the board = 30 inch
Length of,
-- First piece = x
-- Second piece = 4x
-- Third piece = 5x
5x + 4x + x = 30
10x = 30
x = 3
Therefore, the lengths of:
-- First piece = 3 inch
-- Second piece = 4*3 = 12 inch
-- Third piece = 5*3 = 15 inch
Being able to do this problem hinges mainly on your knowing the definitions of the trig functions and being able to read side lengths from the given diagram.
csc theta = hypotenuse / opp side = 4 / √(4^2 + 5^2) = 4 / √41.
sin theta is the reciprocal of csc theta, or √41 / 4.
cot theta is adj side / opp side = 5/4.
Relative dating is the answer
It would be equivalent to x=8
Answer:
9 x 4 = 36 divided by 2 = 18
