SOVing Problems With Right Triangles: Mastery Test
Serhud [2]

Answer:

13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a right angled triangle with a hypotenuse of 16 feet and an angle of 60° between the hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The height of the pole is the side opposite to the angle 60°.

The trigonometric function states that for a right angled triangle:

sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse, cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse, tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

To find the height of the flagpole, we use:

sin(60) = height / 16

height = 16 * sin(60)

height = 13.86 ft

The person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole is  Charlie when he should have utilized the  sin function. Because he incorrectly selected the  function.

A total of 679 tickets were sold for the school play. they were either adult tickets or student tickets. there were 71 fewer stu
guapka [62]
For example a stands for the number of adult tickets, and s stands for the number of student tickets.

Write a system of equation based on the problem
An equation for "<span>A total of 679 tickets were sold for the school play"
</span>∴ a + s = 679 <em>(first equation)</em>
An equation for "<span>there were 71 fewer student tickets sold than adult tickets"
</span>∴ s = a - 71 <em>(second equation)</em>
<span>
Find the solution of the system
Subtitute s with a - 71 in the first equation to find the value of a
a + s = 679
a + a - 71 = 679
2a - 71 = 679
2a = 679 + 71
2a = 750
  a = 750/2
  a = 375
The number of adult tickets sold is 375</span>
