Using the formula for the area of a triangle we can solve for the base.

The formula for area of a triangle is : Area = 1/2 x base x height

We are given the area and the height:

33.6 = 1/2 x 4 x base

Multiply both sides by 2 to remove the 1/2:

67.2 = 4 x base

Divide both sides by 4 to solve for the base:

67.2 /4 = 16.8
 
Check: Area = 1/2 x 4 x 16.8 = 33.6

The base is 16.8 inches.

A 4 meter long ladder leans against a 90 degree wall at a 68 degree angle.
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We use trig to answer these questions:

sin x = opposite side of a triangle / hypotenuse

cos x = adjacent side / hypotenuse

Construct a right triangle with hypotenuse 4 m and lower angle 68 degrees.

The height of the top of the ladder  is then defined by:

sin 68 degrees = height / 4 m, which yields (4 m)(sin 68) = height =

3.71 m

and the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall as follows:

cos 68 degrees = horizontal distance / hypotenuse =

1.50 m

kakasveta [241]
Let:
x = cost of senior citizen ticket
y = cost of student ticket

4x + 5y = 102
7x + 5y = 126

4x + 5y = 102
4x = 102 - 5y
x = (102 - 5y)/4
x = 102/4 - 5y/4

7x + 5y = 126
7(102/4 - 5y/4) + 5y = 126
(714/4 - 35y/4) + 5y = 126
-35y/4 + 5y = 126 - 714/4

note:
-35y/4 = -8.75y
714/4 = 178.5

-8.75y + 5y = 126 - 178.5
-3.75y = -52.5
y = -52.5/-3.75
y = 14


x = 102/4 - 5y/4
x = 102/4 - 5(14)/4
x = 8

x = cost of senior citizen ticket = $8/ea
y = cost of student ticket = $14/ea
