Trig work i don’t understand. pls help
1 answer:
Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
So we know that to find the area of a triangle you have to multiply the base times the height and divide it by two or multiply it by 1/2.Looking the information given it say that theta is equal to 26 degrees and the length of a or the hypotenuse is 25 and b which in this case is the base is 32. So the information gives us the base but now we need to find the height.
To find H we need to apply trigonometry solve for h the height.
As we could see theta which is 26 degrees is opposite the height and we know the hypotenuse length. So using soh cah toh we have to know that the length of h is going to be using the sin formula opposite over hypotenuse.
solve for h by multiplying both sides by 25.
h= 25 sin(26)
h= 10.96 is being rounded to the nearest hundredth because that is essential
Now we know H is equal to 10.96 which is the Height so now we have all the information we need the height and the base.
Multiply 10.96 by 32 and divide it by 2.
10.96 * 32 = 350.72
350.72 /2 = 176.36
The best answer is A because that is the only best approximation to 175.35.

Given:
Christopher scores 2 goals in a soccer game.
His goal total can vary from the average by 1 goal.
To find:
The absolute value equation can be used to calculate Christopher's maximum and minimum goals per game.
Solution:
Let Christopher scores x goals in a soccer game.
Then difference between actual goals and average goals is x-2.
His goal total can vary from the average by 1 goal.
Maximum number of goals = 2+1 = 3
Minimum number of goals = 2-1 = 1
It means, the difference between actual goals and average goals is either -1 and 1.
...(1)
...(2)
Using (1) and (2),we get
Therefore, the correct option is C.
