Answer: x = 9.6
=========================================================
Explanation:
We have two smaller right triangles that are glued together so to speak.
The base of the smaller triangle on the left is 5 while the height is h.
Let's use the tangent rule to find the value of h
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(55) = h/5
5*tan(55) = h
h = 5*tan(55)
h = 7.14074003371058
Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. That value of h above is approximate.
--------------------------
Now focus on the smaller triangle on the right
It has the same height value h. This side is the adjacent side while x is the hypotenuse.
We'll use the cosine ratio
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(42) = h/x
cos(42) = 7.14074003371058/x
x*cos(42) = 7.14074003371058
x = 7.14074003371058/cos(42)
x = 9.6088135029715
x = 9.6
Answer:
x= 6, -4
Step-by-step explanation:
x^2 - 2x - 24 = 0
(x-6) (x+4) = 0
x = 6, x= -4
Answer:
∠1 = 72°
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles sum to 90°, thus
∠1 + ∠2 = 90, substitute ∠1 = 4∠2 , thus
4∠2 + ∠2 = 90
5∠2 = 90 ( divide both sides by 5 )
∠2 = 18°
Hence ∠1 = 90 - 18 = 72°
ANSWER 8-4 5-1 6-2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 81
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean of four nos = 85
Score = 85 x 4 = 340
Deduct 97 from 340 = 243
Mean of three nos. 243/3 = 81
