Answer:

2.91 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If and only if this is a right triangle, we can apply the some fimctopm to determine the length of side BD:

                              side BC

tan 20 degrees = ---------------

                                    8

or side BC = 8 tan 20 degrees.  Since tan 20 degrees = 0.364 radians,

side BC has length 8(0.364) = 2.91 units

A and B share the cost in a ratio of 3:2. A pays £125, how much does B pay?
jolli1 [7]
Cross multiply then solve for x:

3/2 * 125/x

2*125 = 250
3 * x = 3x

3x = 250
x = 83.33 = 83 (rounded)
