There would be 30 people pulling it. To work it out you do 16 divided by 8=2. Then you do 60 divided by 2= 30.<u />

Question 8 of 10 What is sin 30º? 60 2 901 D A B. c.. () E. E )​
levacccp [35]

Answer:

A.  \displaystyle \frac{1}{2}

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Trigonometry</u>

  • [Right Triangles Only] SOHCAHTOA  
  • [Right Triangles Only] sinθ = opposite over hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

sin 30°

<u>Step 2: Solve</u>

Since sin is opposite over hypotenuse, we need to find the length of the opposite leg of the angle and the length of the hypotenuse.

Given the triangle and it's values, the opposite leg to the 30° angle is 1 and the hypotenuse is 2.

Substituting it into sin, we have:

sin 30° = 1/2 = 0.5

∴ our answer is A.

elena55 [62]
Siamone has $65.32 + DAN 
Dan has CARLY - $37.50
CARLY = $127.75 
Plug Carly into Dan's equation... 
$127.75 - $37.50 = $90.20
DAN = $90.20
Plug Dan into Siamone's equation
$65.32 + $90.20 = $155.57
