So you have a right angle triangle. You need to use trig for this, as you have two values you can figure out a third.

You know that you have

90 deg. angle
19 deg. angle
Therefor you have 71 deg. angle

sin19 = x/15
15sin19 = x
x = 2.2

Now do Pythagoras c^2-b^2=a^2

a = 14.8

So the sides are 2.2 and 14.8 units long. (If these numbers are wrong tell me and I'll edit answer)

Answer:

D.  4.9 units, 14.2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

By working in reverse, doing arctan( small side / big side) we can deduce it to answer D, seeing as

4.9/14.2 ~= 0.34507

tan^{-1}(0.34507) = 19.04degrees

Which rounds out to 19degrees in the tenths.

Can you pls help thanks
olga55 [171]
Okay so if the question is asking for the area the answer is 13 times 5 is 65 and 65 divided by 2 is 32.5 so 32.5 is the area of this triangle. If the question is what is x then the answer is 5
I hope this helps! :)

A parabola y=1/2x^2-4x+21 can you help me find the vertex form of this parabola please and thank you :)
ale4655 [162]
Ok 
First factor out the first 2 terms as follows:-

y  = 1/2(x^2 - 8x) + 21

Now complete the square on x^2 - 8x:-

y = 1/2[ (x - 4)^2 - 16] + 21

y = 1/2(x - 4)^2 - 8 + 21

y = 1/2(x - 4)^2 + 13   Answer
