The process to getting this comes in many steps. Firstly, you need to find the angles for JLK and MLJ. To find JLK use the arcsin function using the opposite side and the hypotenuse. 

Arcsin(Opp/Hype) = JLK
Arcsin(.5) = JLK
30 degrees = JLK

This means MLJ = 31 degrees since they add up to 61 degrees. 

Now we need to find the length of LJ, which we can do using the Pythagorean Theorem. 

3^2 + JL^2 = 6^2
9 + JL^2 = 36
JL^2 = 27
JL = \sqrt{27}

Now that we have the angle of MLJ and the length of JL, we can use the tangent function to find MJ.

Tan(angle) = opp/adj
Tan(31) = MJ/\sqrt{27}
\sqrt{27}Tan(31) = MJ
3.122 = MJ

ΔJKL, sin(JLK)=JK/KL=3/6=0.5
<JKL=30deg.

cos(JLK)=JL/KL
JL=KL*cos(JLK)=6cos(30deg.)

<JLK + <JLM = <MLK
30 + <JLM = 61
<JLM=31deg

in ΔMJL
tan(JLM)=JM/JL
JM=JL*tan(JLM)
=6cos(30deg.)*tan(31deg)
=3.12

Which of the binomials below is a factor of this trinominal? x^2-13+30
Leona [35]

Answer:

(x-3)(x-10)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor the equation, break it into two binomials which multiply to make the equation. To write these binomials (x+a)(x+b), find factors which multiply to 30 and add to -13 for a and b.

30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30

-3+-10 = -13

x^2-13x+30 = (x-3)(x-10)

Two people meet for the first time. What is the probability that they both have the same birthday?
Alenkinab [10]
<span>The first person can have any birthday. That gives him 365 possible birthdays out of 365 days, so the probability of the first person having the "right" birthday is 365/365, or 100%.The chance that the second person has the same birthday is 1/365. To find the probability that both people have this birthday, we have to multiply their separate probabilities. (365/365) * (1/365) = 1/365, or about 0.27%.</span>

If three parallel lines are cut by a transversal and one angle is measured to be 90 degrees, what can be said of the remaining?
V125BC [204]

Answer: A. There all 90 degrees


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Three parallel lines are cut by a transversal and one angle is measured to be 90 degrees.

We know that if two lines cut by transversal the following pairs are equal:

  • Vertically opposite angles.
  • Corresponding angles.
  • Alternate interior angles.
  • Alternate exterior angles.

If one angles measures 90°, then its supplement would be 90°.

Then by using above properties , we will get measure of all angles as 90°.

A parachutist's rate during a free fall reaches 198 feet per second. What is this rate in meters per second? At this rate, how m
amm1812

Answer:

300 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

If we were using feet the expression would be 198x, where x is feet per second

Since they are asking in meters we need to convert feet to meters

When you do that you get 60

Now the expression is 60x

When you plug 5 into the equation it is 300
