Answer:
749 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
It's a right-angle triangle so you can use trig ratios
750 feet
tan(59) = opposite/adjacent
tan(59l = X/450
X = 450×tan(59)
X = 748.9 ft
X = 749 ft (correct to 3 sf)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Please consider the attached image as the given square.
We are asked to express the shaded area as a fraction, a decimal, and a percent of the whole.
We can see that in our figure there are 100 squares as there are 10 rows and each row contains 10 squares.
We can also see that there are 81 shaded squares out of 100 squares, so we can represent it as a fraction as:
To convert the shaded area into decimal, we need to divide 81 by 100.
To convert the shaded area into percent, we need to multiply 0.81 by 100.
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
The first thing you must do is notice that <D = <BEA. Mark it that way on your diagram.
The Second thing you need to notice is that <BEA and <A are equal because <A and <D are marked as equal.
So both the large triangle and the small one are isosceles. because 2 of the 3 angles are equal.
Now are you ready for this? That means that BA = 10 because BA is opposite one of the 2 equal angles in the small triangle. So now you are ready to set up a proportion.
Proportion
AB / AC = AE/AD
Givens
AB = 10
AC = 18
AE = 8
AD = x + 8
Solution
Substitute the Givens into the Proportion.
10/18 = 8/(x + 8) Cross multiply
10(x + 8) = 8 * 18 Simplify both sides
10x + 80 = 144 Subtract 80 from both sides
10x + 80 - 80 = 144 - 80
10x = 64 Divide by 10
10x/10 = 64/10
Answer: x = 6.4
