Answers:
tan(A) = 8/15
sin(A) = 8/17
cos(A) = 15/17
==================================================
Explanation:
The tangent ratio involves the opposite over adjacent. With respect to angle A, the opposite side is 8 units long as this side is as far as possible away from angle A. In contrast, the adjacent side is 15 units long because this leg is closest possible and the two are right next to one another.
Therefore,
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(A) = BC/AC
tan(A) = 8/15
---------------
As for the other trig ratios, they are:
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
which explains why sin(A) and cos(A) are 8/17 and 15/17 respectively.
Answer:
first side=40
second side=20
third side=22
Step-by-step explanation:
LET THE SIDES OF THE TRIANGLES BE y
Perimeter=82
first side=2 x y = 2y
second side=y
third side=2 +y
2y + y + 2 + y=82
4y+2=82
4y= 82-2
4y=80
y=80/4
y=20
first side=2y=2(20)=40
second side=y=20
third side= 2 + y= 2 + 20 = 22
The formula of a slope:
We have the points A(-6, 6) and B(12, 3). Substitute:
Therefore we have 
.
Put the coordinates of the point B to the equation:
<em>add 2 to both sides</em>
