12m, and 8m what is the third angle of the tirangle

1 answer:

8 0

So we use pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

Do you have the triangle drawn ? It matters what side we are solving for.

12m^2 + 8m^2 = c^2

c^2= 208

c= 14.42 m

I can solve for what you want, just need some information from you

Problem:
The area of the patio of a relative's house is 20 square meters.
The width of the patio is 2 meters.
What is the length of the patio?
Solution:
The area is:
A = (w) * (l)
Where,
w: width
l: long
Clearing l we have:
l = A / w
Substituting values:
l = 20/2
l = 10 meters

Can someone help me with this proof

maksim [4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Given that lines a and b are parallel, angles 1 and 5 are congruent because they are corresponding angles, and angles 1 and 4 are congruent because they are vertical angles

To find : by which property are angles 4 and 5 congruent

Solution :

We know that if two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, then the pairs of alternate interior angles are congruent.

Also, we know that if two things are equal to the same thing then they are equal to each other . In this case, we can say that if two angles are congruent to a third angle, then they are congruent to each other. As angles 4 and 5 are both congruent to angle 1, they are congruent to each other but angles 4 and 5 are alternate interior angles. So, if parallel lines have a transversal, alternate interior angles are congruent.

The tallest tree in the world is reputed to be a giant redwood named Hyperion located in Redwood National Park in California, US

dlinn [17]

Answer:

114.02 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The information you're given about the tree will form a triangle, with the three corners being the top of the tree, the point where the tree meets the ground, and the specified point 41.5 meters from the tree. The angle of elevation (70°) is the angle made where the line representing the ground and the line connecting the top of the tree to the ground at the specified point connect.

The angle where the tree meets the ground is 90°, so the triangle a right triangle.

So this all means you know one angle of a right triangle (70°) and the side adjacent to this angle (41.5 meters). You're solving for the height of the tree, which is the side opposite of the angle you know. You can solve using either Sine, Cosine, or Tangent.

Use the acronym SOHCAHTOA to figure out which of those three functions to use. Feel free to look this up for more information if you haven't heard of it before. In this case, we're using Tangent (TOA = Tangent, Opposite side, Adjacent side)

To solve using any of those three functions, you'll need a scientific calculator. On your calculator, you'll see the buttons SIN, COS, andTAN. For this problem, press TAN and you'll see something appear that says tan (___). You'll need to input a number to get your answer, and here's how to find that number:

Again referencing SOHCAHTOA, the "TOA" part lists Opposite first and then Adjacent. This is because you're going to write a fraction with those two numbers, and since Opposite is first, it's the numerator. That means that Adjacent is the denominator. We don't know the value of the opposite side, so it'll be represented by x, and we do know the value of the adjacent side, 41.5. This means the fraction is $\frac{x}{41.5}$ .

This isn't the number to input into the calculator -- you need to isolate the variable:

The original equation is:

tan 70 = x/41.5

Multiply both sides by 41.5 (To cancel out the denominator and isolate x)

tan 70 (41.5) = x

Now you've got the equation for x, you're ready to put this in your calculator.

What appeared on your calculator was:

tan(__)

Input like follows:

(tan(70))41.5

The brackets are needed like that so the calculator knows to multiply the entire thing by 41.5. You might get a wrong answer otherwise.

Hit enter, and you'l get the height of the tree:

114.02 meters
