Answer:

72%

Step-by-step explanation:

A circuit contains two switches.

The first switch transmits messages correctly 80% of the time, then the probability that the message will be transmitted successfully through the first switch is

p_1=0.8

The second switch transmits messages correctly 90% of the time, then the probability that the message will be transmitted successfully through the second switch is

p_2=0.9

The probability that the message will be transmitted successfully through both switches is

p=p_1\cdot p_2=0.8\cdot 0.9=0.72

that is exactly 72%

Find the length of the short leg of a 30-60-90 triangle if the long leg is 3cm
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Short leg = √3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the opposite angle of long leg is 60°

hypotenuse : x

sin 60° = 3/x = √3 / 2

x = (3 x 2) / √3 = 2√3

short leg length (s)

Cos 60° = 1/2 = s / x = s / 2√3

s = √3
