The locations of the streets describes a right triangle with the angles 30 degrees and 60 degrees between them and the length of the side opposite the 60 degrees angle is 4\sqrt{3} \, miles

a.) To find the distance form North Street to South Street along Eastern Avenue, we find the length of the side opposite the 30 degrees angle.

Using sine rule, we recall that the sine rule states that
\frac{\sin{A}}{a} = \frac{\sin{B}}{b}
where:
a = 4\sqrt{3}
A = 60 degrees
B = 30 degrees
b = unknown
\frac{\sin{60^o}}{4\sqrt{3}} = \frac{\sin{30^o}}{b} \\ b=\frac{4\sqrt{3} \sin{30^o}}{\sin{60^o}}= \frac{3.4641}{0.8660} = 4 \, miles

Therefore, the distance form North Street to South Street along Eastern Avenue is 4 miles.

b.) To find the distance from North Street to South Street along Central Boulevard we find the length of the hypothenus of the right triangle.

Using pythagoras theorem, we recall that the pythagoras states that
c^2=a^2+b^2
where:
a = 4\sqrt{3}
b = 4 miles
c = hypothenus = unknown
c^2=\left(4 \sqrt{3} \right)^2+4^2=48+16=64 \\ c= \sqrt{64} =8 \, miles

Therefore, the distance from North Street to South Street along Central Boulevard is 8 miles

Approximately how many meters are equal to 11.4 feet?Note: 1 m≈3.3 ftRound your answer to the nearest hundredths.
notka56 [123]

Alright, lets get started.

We are asked, approximately how many meters are equal to 11.4 feet.

We have given that,

3.3  feet = 1 meter

So,  1 feet = \frac{1}{3.3} meter

So, 11.4 feet = 11.4 *\frac{1}{3.3} meter

11.4 feet = \frac{11.4}{3.3} meter

11.4 feet = 3.45 meters   :    Answer

Hope it will help :)

Find the area of an eqilateral triangle with the side of 6 inches
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The area of an equilateral triangle with the side of 6 inches = 15.59 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:-

Area of equilateral triangle = √3a²/4  

Where 'a' is the side of equilateral triangle.

<u>To find the area of given triangle</u>

Here side a = 6 inches

Area = √3a²/4  

  = (√3 * 6²)/4

 = (1.73 * 36)/4  = 1.73 * 9 = 15.59 inches²
