Using the pythagorean identity, we can find the value of sin(A)

cos^2(A) + sin^2(A) = 1
(12/13)^2 + sin^2(A) = 1
144/169 + sin^2(A) = 1
sin^2(A) = 1 - 144/169
sin^2(A) = 169/169 - 144/169
sin^2(A) = (169 - 144)/169
sin^2(A) = 25/169
sin(A) = sqrt(25/169)
sin(A) = 5/13

Which is then used to find tan(A)

tan(A) = sin(A)/cos(A)
tan(A) = (5/13) divided by (12/13)
tan(A) = (5/13)*(13/12)
tan(A) = (5*13)/(13*12)
tan(A) = 5/12

The final answer is 5/12

klasskru [66]
Where x is the length of the first piece
x + 2x + 6x + 1 = 28 \\  \\ 9x = 27 \\  \\ x = 3
so the first piece is 3 inches, the second is 6 inches and the third is 19 inches

What are the possible values for x in the equation 4x^2=64
Degger [83]

                                  <u> 4 x²  =  64</u>

Divide each side by  4 :     x² = 16

Take the square root
of each side:                     x = √16

                                   x = <em>+ 4</em>
and
                                   x = <em>- 4</em> .

What’s the answer for this question that’s in the picture below
Annette [7]

The answer is 140.

For every 4 toys the price increases by 20. If you divide, we find that every toy is worth 5. For example, if the amount of toys increases by 10, then the cost increases by 50. Since 20 is the closest given example being only 10 toys away, you can just add 50 onto the cost of the toys to get 140.
