Urgent help needed w/ right triangle trig

1 answer:

shusha [124]2 years ago

4 0

Since this is a right triangle, you can use the main trig functions sin, cos, and tan. We must use sin for this problem because sin= opp/hyp. Plug in the numbers to this function. Sin (53) = a/25. Thus when you cross multiply, you get a= sin (53) x 25. When you plug it into a calculator the answer should come out to 19.97

3. What are the roots of the polynomial y = x³ - 8?

zzz [600]

Step-by-step explanation:

x^3 is a perfect cube, 8 is a perfect cube, so we use difference of cubes.

${a}^{3} - {b}^{3} = (a - b)( {a}^{2} + ab + {b}^{2} )$

Cube root of x^3 is x.

Cube root of 8 is 2

So

a=x

b= 2.

$(x - 2)( {x}^{2} - 2x + 4)$

Set these equations equal to zero

$x - 2 = 0$

$x = 2$

${x}^{2} - 2x + 4 = 0$

If we do the discriminant, we get a negative answer so we would have two imaginary solutions,

Thus the only real root is 2.

If you want imaginary solutions, apply the quadratic formula.

$1 + i \sqrt{ 3 }$

and

$1 - i \sqrt{3}$

CRITICAL THINKING The total area of the polygon is 176 square feet. What is the value of $x$ ?

Katarina [22]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

this figure involves two triangle and one rectangle

for area of rectangle= Length * Width = 16 * 8 = 128 feet^2

for area of one triangle = 1/2 * base * height = 1/2 * x *8 = 4x

for two triangles = 8x ft^2 total

whole area = two triangles + one rectangle

176 = 8x + 128

8x =48

x = 6
