Help me solve for the right triangle

Mathematics
1 answer:
AleksAgata [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answers:

B = 50

a = 10.9

c = 17.0

================================================

Explanation:

This is a right triangle, so the acute angles are complementary, meaning they add to 90

B+40 = 90

B+40-40 = 90-40

B = 50

Also, because this is a right triangle, we can use trig ratios to compute the missing sides

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(40) = a/13

a = 13*tan(40)

a = 10.908

a = 10.9

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(40) = 13/c

c*cos(40) = 13

c = 13/cos(40)

c = 17.0

note: make sure your calculator is in degree mode

bixtya [17]
He paid ...

-- The cost of the lunches      (100%  =  1.00 of it)    

-- 15% of the cost as a tip    (15%  =  0.15 of it)

-- 12% of the cost as sales tax  (12%  =  0.12 of it)

Total that he paid = (1.00 + 0.15 + 0.12)  =  1.27 of $248.40

                                                           =      $315.47   .

Trevor is one generous guy !

A cafeteria starts with 750 fish sticks for lunch. Each meal they serve uses 6 of the fish sticks. At the end of the lunch there
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The value of N = 118

Step-by-step explanation:

750 = 6n + 42

move all the numbers that don't contain n to the right side

6n = 750 - 42

6n = 708

708 / 6 = 118

n = 118

plug the numbers back in

6 ( 118) = 708

708 = 708

plug the 42 back in

708 + 42 = 750
