Yeah.. baby, do the SOH CAH TOA with the hula hoop

\bf 
sin(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{hypotenuse}
\qquad \qquad 
% cosine
cos(\theta)=\cfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\\ \quad \\
% tangent
tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}


so.. hmmm we have in the picture, an angle, and two sides,
actually, is the "adjacent" side, and the "opposite"

so.. which  of those ratios give us only
the angle
the adjacent side
the opposite side?

ahhha!, is Ms tangent
so  \bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\implies tan(42^o)=\cfrac{h}{100}

solve for "h"

What is another name for <1?
Oksanka [162]

Option A:

The another name for ∠1 is ∠JLK.

Solution:

How to Label Angles :

There are two main ways to label angles:

1. Give the angle name by a number or a lower case letters.

2. The second way to name the angle is indicating by the vertex.

Usually the angle is denoted by three letters.

First letter and the second letter denotes the arms of the angle and the middle of the letter denotes the angle (its vertex).

To find the another name for ∠1.

The arms of the angle are LJ and LK and the vertex is L.

So, the name of the angle is ∠JLK.

Middle letter is the actual angle.

Therefore the another name for ∠1 is ∠JLK.

Option A is the correct answer.

3x/5=30 solve the equation
Bess [88]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve equations like this you need to to get x by itself.

So, Let's multiply both sides by 5 to get rid of 5.

3x/5 *5 = 30 * 5

= 3x = 150

Now we divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself,

3x/3 = 150/3

x = 50
