Answer:  The tangent ratio for angle E is \dfrac{3}{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to find the tangent ratio of angle E in the figure.

From the figure, we note that

the triangle DEF is a right-angled triangle, where ∠D = 90° and ∠E is an acute angle.

We know that

tangent ratio of an angle is given by the length of the perpendicular divided by the length of the base associated with that particular angle.

Now, for angle E, we have

perpendicular = DF = 6 units

and

base = DE = 8 units.

Therefore, the tangent ratio for angle E will be

\tan \angle E=\dfrac{perpendicular}{base}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \tan \angle E=\dfrac{DF}{DE}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \tan \angle E=\dfrac{6}{8}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \tan \angle E=\dfrac{3}{4}.

Thus, the tangent ratio for angle E is \dfrac{3}{4}.

Katrina is building a deck. She cuts 3 lengths of wood from a 72-inch board. The first length is inches. The second length is in
kap26 [50]
Rewriting the question, the given lengths that were cut from the board were 30 3/4 inches, 12 1/4 inches, and 16 1/4 inches. To obtain the remaining length of the board, all of the measurements cut are to be added and subtracted from 72 inches. This is shown below:

30 3/4 + 12 1/4 + 16 1/4 = 237/4 = 59.25 inches.

Remaining length of board = 72 - 59.25 = 12.75 inches.

Therefore, there will be 12.75 inches remaining of the board.

You make one pitcher of iced tea and one pitcher of lemonade for a party. Just before the party starts, you catch a little misch
mario62 [17]

Answer:

  Each pitcher has the same fraction of the other drink.

Step-by-step explanation:

After 1 cup of tea is added to x cups of lemonade, the mix has the ratio 1:x of tea to lemonade. So, the fraction of mix that is tea is 1/(x+1).

The 1 cup of mix contains 1/(x+1) cups of tea and so x/(x+1) cups of lemonade. When that amount of lemonade is added to the tea, it brings the proportion of lemonade in the tea to (x/(x+1))/x = 1/(x+1), the same proportion as that of tea in the lemonade.

_____

You can consider the degenerate case of one cup of drink in each pitcher. Then when the 1 cup of tea is removed from its pitcher and added to the lemonade, you have a 50-50 mix of tea and lemonade. Removing 1 cup of that mix and putting it back in the tea pitcher makes there be a 50-50 mix in both pitchers.

Increasing the quantity in each pitcher does nothing to change the fact that the mixes end up in the same ratio:

  tea:lemonade in Pitcher 1 = lemonade:tea in Pitcher 2
