Answer:
the angle would be 1/2 i did this problem before and got it correct
Step-by-step explanation:
The pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of two legs of a right triangle is equivalent to the hypotenuse.
So:
35^2 + b^2 = 40^2
1225 + b^2 = 1600
b^2 = 375
b = 
b = 19.3649
<u>The missing side's length rounded to the nearest tenth is Option C, 19.4</u>
Identify the angle variable to use.
Write an equation.
Solve the equation for the variable.
Find the unknown angle measure.
X is Kevin; Y is Dan
X = 3Y
X - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5Y - 20
+ 4 +4
4 cancels each other out.
3Y = 5Y - 16
- 5 -5
5 cancels each other out.
-2Y = -16
/2 /2
Y = 8
X = 3Y;
X = 3 x 8;
Thus,
X = 24;
Kevin(x) is 24
I think this is how you do it: You would multiply 3/8 to 3/4 min...then convert into decimal..and get 0.5 min.
