Answer:

\text{Decimal degrees} = 61.65^\circ    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the measure of an angle in degrees, minutes and seconds.

We have to convert this measure in decimal degrees.

\text{Measure of angle =} 61^\circ38'45''

1 degree equals 60 minutes or 3600 seconds.

The conversion is done with the help of formula:

\text{Decimal degrees} = d + \displaystyle\frac{m}{60} + \frac{s}{3600}\\\\\text{where d is the degree measur, m is the minute measure and s is the second measure.}

Putting the values, we have:

\text{Decimal degrees} = d + \displaystyle\frac{m}{60} + \frac{s}{3600}\\\\= 61 + \frac{38}{60} + \frac{45}{3600} = 61.65^\circ

A suitable calculator* can do this easily.

61°38'45" = (61 +(38 +45/60)/60)° ≈ 61.65°

I like the RealCalc app for Android, but many graphing calculators also will do this conversion. Of course, you can simply evaluate the expression as above.

slava [35]

let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then take it from there, keeping in mind that the whole is "x".

\stackrel{mixed}{5\frac{5}{6}}\implies \cfrac{5\cdot 6+5}{6}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{35}{6}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{7}{3}x~~ = ~~5\frac{5}{6}\implies \cfrac{7}{3}x~~ = ~~\cfrac{35}{6}\implies 42x=105\implies x=\cfrac{105}{42} \\\\\\ x=\cfrac{21\cdot 5}{21\cdot 2}\implies x=\cfrac{21}{21}\cdot \cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=1\cdot \cfrac{5}{2}\implies x=2\frac{1}{2}

Select the best answer to complete the sentence. A Rigid Motion or Isometry ______________________.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: A. preserves length, angle measures and distance between points

Rigid motions or isometries are any of the three transformations below

  • translation (aka shifting)
  • rotation
  • reflection

Any of those three transformations will keep the figure the same size and shape. That means distances between any two points are kept the same, and angle measures are kept the same as well. Everything is kept the same. The only difference is that the figure is in a different location, is rotated somehow, or it is reflected some way. You can use a series of transformations to undo everything to get the original figure back.

If you wanted to change the size of the figure, then you would apply dilation, which isn't an isometry.
