Answer:

Total length of three boards is 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression is,

\Rightarrow 3\frac{1}{2}+2+4\frac{1}{2}

First solving the mixed fraction into fractions.

\Rightarrow \frac{7}{2}+2+\frac{9}{2}

Using commutative property, [a+b = b+a]

we can rewrite the given expression as,

\frac{7}{2}+(2+\frac{9}{2})=\frac{7}{2}+(\frac{9}{2}+2)

Using associative property [a+(b+c) = (a+b)+c]

\frac{7}{2}+(\frac{9}{2}+2)=(\frac{7}{2}+\frac{9}{2})+2

this reduces to , \frac{7+9}{2}+2=8+2=10

Thus, total length of three boards is 10.

Confusion...help please

Given:

In triangle KLM, KL = 123 cm and measure of angle K is 35 degrees.

To find:

The length of the side KM to the nearest tenth of a centimeter.

Solution:

In a right angle triangle,

\cos \theta =\dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

In the given right triangle KLM,

\cos K=\dfrac{KM}{KL}

\cos (35^\circ)=\dfrac{KM}{123}

0.819152=\dfrac{KM}{123}

Multiply both sides by 123.

0.819152\times 123=KM

100.755696=KM

KM\approx 100.8

The measure of side KM is 100.8 cm.

Therefore, the correct option is (2).
