0.084 is the answer because 0.84 divided by 10 is 0.084
Cos(68)=z/24
Z=24cos(68)
Find the answer by the calculator
Second question,
Cos(x)=16/34
X=cos^-1(16/34)
Use calculator
Let x = total sales of baked goods remember 20% = .20 as a decimal
so the equation would be .20x = $600
divide both sides by .20
.20x/.20 = $600/.20
x = $3000 the total sales of baked goods
CHECK: 20% times $3000 = .20 times $3000 = $600
The two planes are flying on the two legs of a right triangle.
The straight distance between them is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Since the speeds are in mph, let's work the time in hours.
Call the time 'H' that we're looking for.
It's the number of hours after they both take off that they're 650 miles apart.
After 'H' hours, the first plane has gone 500H miles north.
After 'H' hours, the second plane has gone 1200H miles east.
After 'H' hours, they are 650 miles apart.
Do you remember this for a right triangle ? ==> A² + B² = C²
(500H)² + (1200H)² = (650)²
250,000H² + 1,440,000H² = 422,500
1,690,000 H² = 422,500
H² = (422,500) / (1,690,000) = 0.25
H = √0.25 = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes
