Answer:

The length of the side opposite the smallest angle of the triangle is 2 centimeter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 11 : 5 : 2. The side opposite the largest angle is 5.5 centimeters.

To find: The length of the side opposite the smallest angle of the triangle is?

Solution :

Let x be the angle of the triangle.

The angles of a triangle are in the ratio 11 : 5 : 2.

Sum of angles of the triangle is 180°.

So, 11x + 5x + 2x = 180

18x = 180

x=10

Therefore, The angles of the triangles are 110, 50,20 degrees.

Now, Applying Law of Sines:

i.e, to find the remaining sides of a triangle when two angles and a side are known we apply,

\frac{\sin A}{a}=\frac{\sin B}{b}

Let A=110°(as largest angle), a=5.5 cm(given)

B=20° (as 20 is the smallest angle), b=b(smallest length)

Substitute,

\frac{\sin 110}{5.5}=\frac{\sin 20}{b}

Cross multiply,

b=\frac{\sin 20\times 5.5}{\sin 110}

b=2.00

Therefore, The length of the side opposite the smallest angle of the triangle is 2 centimeter.

The side opposite the lasrgest angle will also be the largest side in the triangle

Here it s 5.5 cms.

so using the given ratios we have

2/11 = x /5.5   where x is the smallest side (opposite the smallest angle)

x = (2*5.5) / 11  =  1 cm.

Is -2x-6=2x+6 no soulution
Olegator [25]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

−2x−6=2x+6

Step 1: Subtract 2x from both sides.

−2x−6−2x=2x+6−2x

−4x−6=6

Step 2: Add 6 to both sides.

−4x−6+6=6+6

−4x=12

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4x/−4 = 12/-4

=

x=−3
