Hello,

If you are starting with the angle of 40 degrees, you have an adjacent side and hypotenuse. Therefore, it is a cosine relationship.

We can write:

cos(40) = adj / hyp
cos(40) = x / 220

To solve for x, simply multiply 220 by the cos(40).
You can write it as: 220 cos(40)

Good luck,

Andrew [12]

Answer:

y = -2/7x - 22/7

General Formulas and Concepts:

Pre-Algebra

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

Algebra I

Slope Formula: $m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

Point (-4, -2)

Point (3, -4)

Step 2: Find slope m

Substitute: $m=\frac{-4+2}{3+4}$
Add: $m=\frac{-2}{7}$

Step 3: Find y-intercept b

Define: y = -2/7x + b
Substitute: -4 = -2/7(3) + b
Multiply: -4 = -6/7 + b
Isolate b: -22/7 = b
Rewrite: b = -22/7

Step 4: Write linear equation

y = -2/7x - 22/7

How do I find the area of each shape

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: the formula is (A=bh1/2)

Step-by-step explanation: #4 (The triangle)

First let’s find the base length of the triangle.

28 - 16 = 12

Ok now let’s do the real math now

Area = bh1/2

Area = (12)(16)(1/2)

Area = 96

Don’t worry about the slant height it’s just there to trick you
