Answer:

.894

Step-by-step explanation:

First thing to do is to solve for the height of the triangle, BD.  That's easy.  We have the length of the hypotenuse and the base, so Pythagorean's Theorem gives us that the height is 8.003255588 which rounds nicely to 8.  Now you have to call on the fond memories you have of the geometric mean in right triangles to solve the rest.  For the sin of x you need the hypotenuse of that smaller right triangle on the left, side AB.  First let's use geometric mean to find AD.  The formula for that, now that we know the height, is

BD^2=(AD)(DC)

Filling that in with numbers we have

8^2=(AD)16 and

64 = 16(AD).  Solve for AD to get that AD has a length of 4.  Now we know two of the three sides in that smaller triangle on the left and can solve for the hypotenuse.

8^2+4^2=c^2 and

64+16=c^2 so

c=√80 which simplifies to 4√5.  That means that the sin ratio for x is

\frac{8}{4\sqrt{5} }

which divides out to .894

I'd say that, if the angles S and U are equal, as the SV and UV segments move towards each other, they meet at vertex V, the angles they make, angle SVT and UVT, have to be equal, because the side TV is shared by both, and has the same direction.

now, side TV is on both triangles, and is shared by both, so is the same length, so TV on one triangle is equal to TV on the other

check the picture below

so, you have one Angle, another Angle, and then a Side

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

A. People who are related to the employees of Isaac's Immaculate Ice Cream

Step-by-step explanation:

If the results are called into question, this means there is potential bias in the survey.

Randomly choosing people from a phone book or another random method would not create bias.

Having people blindly test brands of ice cream would not create bias, as it is random and fair.

However, if the people surveyed were related to employees of Isaac's Immaculate Ice Cream, the results could be called into question over a fear of favoritism.
