The answer is 36°.

Complementary angles are those angles whose sum is 90°.

Let angles be x and y.
x + y = 90°
x : y = 2 : 3
_____
3 * x = 2 * y
3x = 2y
x + y = 90°
_____
x = 2/3*y
x + y = 90°
2/3y + y = 90°
2/3y + 3/3y = 90°
5/3y = 90°
5y = 90° * 3
5y = 270°
y = 54°

x + 54° = 90° 
x = 90° - 54°
x = 36°

The smaller angle is 36°

If I owe you $1.76 in overtime pay, you receive $19.50 for each hour of OT. How many hours overtime are you owed?
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer: 0.09 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You are owed $1.76 in overtime pay.

The hourly rate for overtime is $19.50 per hour.

To find the number of hours owed, you need to divide the amount owed by the amount owed per hour.

The number of hours you are owed is therefore:

= Amount owed / Amount owed per hour

= 1.76 / 19.50

= 0.09 hours

Describe the two-dimensional cross section that would be created by slicing the cylinder-shaped cheese block as shown.
masha68 [24]

Answer: A RECTANGLE ( It has four sides, its opposite sides are congruent and all its angles measure 90 degrees)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember the definition of a "Cross section".

In Geometry a "Cross section" is defined as that shape obtained when a three-dimensional figure is sliced by a plane.

In this case, according to the information given in the exercise, the cheese block has the shape of a cylinder. This is the three-dimensional figure.

Observe in the picture attached in the exercise that the  cylinder-shaped cheese block is cut through perpendicular to its base.

By definition, when this perpendicular cut happens, the shape obtained is  a Quadrilateral which has four  equal  angles that measure 90 degrees and whosepposite sides are parallel have equal length.

Therefore, you can conclude that the two-dimensional cross section that would be created by slicing the cylinder-shaped cheese block perpendicular to its base,is: A RECTANGLE.

What is the value of y? Show work
romanna [79]

Answer:

Sum of the interior angles of the triangle is 180°.

According to the above problem,

4y + (y + 11) + 39 = 180 \\ 5y + 50 = 180 \\ 5y = 130 \\ y  = \frac{130}{5}  \\  \boxed{y = 26}✓

<h3><u>y=26</u><u>°</u> is the right answer.</h3>
