What concept describes how quickly an investment increases in value when interest is paid not only on the original amount invest
1 answer:
Answer:
Compound Interest
Step-by-step explanation:
When the interest is paid on principal amount only, then there is fixed return in case of a specified rate.
For example: Simple interest @ 5% on principal value of $100 shall be
$100 5% = $5 each year
Even though the interest amount is not withdrawn, and kept in the account earning this return.
Although, in case of compound interest:
Principal = $100
Rate = 5%
At the end of year 1, assuming interest is compounded each year
Value of interest = $100 5% = $5
Value of security or investment = $105
Second year interest = $105 5% = $5.25
Value = $105 + $5.25 = $110.25
Whereas in simple interest the value stays constant of principle on which interest is calculated = $100
Thus, total return in 2 years under simple interest = $100 + $5 + $5 = $110
Whereas that in compounded interest, compounded annually = $100 + $5 + $5.25 = $110.25
Thus, value of money increases faster in compound interest.

We can answer this question using sine rule, as I'm sure you're aware of since you have drawn out the opposite angles and sides.
In case you need reminding, the sine rule is as follows:
Using the information you have provided, we can set A to be x, a to be 33 (as it's the opposite), B to be 102, and b to be 73 (again, as it's the opposite).
If we plug these values in to the sine rule, we get:
Now all we have to do is rearrange to find X.
