IS there any more information you could give?
Answer:
- sin(X) = 6/7.5
- XY = 4.5
- cos(X) = 4.5/7.5
- tan(X) = 6/4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
It is convenient to use the Pythagorean theorem to find XY to start with. That theorem tells you ...
XZ² = YZ² + XY²
Solving for XY, you find ...
XY² = XZ² - YZ²
XY = √(XZ² - YZ²) = √(7.5² -6²) = √(56.25 -36) = √20.25
XY = 4.5
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA is very helpful here. It reminds you that ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
sin(X) = 6/7.5
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
cos(X) = 4.5/7.5
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(X) = 6/4.5

<em>Comment on the triangle and ratios</em>
The side lengths of this triangle are in the ratios ...
XY : YZ : XZ = 3 : 4 : 5
If you recognize that the given sides are in the ratio 4 : 5, this tells you that you have a "3-4-5" right triangle with a scale factor of 1.5. At least, you can find XY = 1.5·3 = 4.5 with no further trouble.
The trig ratios could be reduced to sin(X) = 4/5; cos(X) = 3/5; tan(X) = 4/3, but the wording "don't simplify" suggests you want the numbers shown on the diagram, not their reduced ratios.
1/2 = 0.5
3/5 = 0.6
The answer: 0.46, 0.5 (1/2), 0.6 (3/5), 0.6001.
Answer:
Area of ΔDEF is 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
ΔABC and ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.
Length of AB = 
and
Length of DE = 
Area of ΔABC = 
Solution,
Since, ΔABC and ΔDEF is similar and ∠B ≅ ∠E.
Therefore,
Where triangle 1 and triangle 2 is ΔABC and ΔDEF respectively.
If two triangles are similar, then the ratio of the area of both triangles is proportional to the square of the ratio of their corresponding sides.
Thus the area of ΔDEF is .
A) JL and JK
Because you must always start from top to bottom and left to right.
