Kim is building a triangular dog pen. She will use an existing 10 m wall as one side. She will then build a fence going out at a
45°
angle on one side of the wall and a 65° angle on the other side. How much chain-link fence is needed to complete the fence?

Answer:
17.2 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle that the fence makes opposite the wall is ...
180° -45° -65° = 70°
The law of cosines can be used to find the lengths of fence needed.
The fence opposite the 45° angle will have a length of ...
short side = (10 ft)·sin(45°)/sin(70°) = 7.525 . . . feet
The fence opposite the 65° angle will have a length of ...
long side = (10 ft)·sin(65°)/sin(70°) = 9.645 . . . feet
Then the total length of fence required is ...
7.525 ft +9.645 ft = 17.170 ft
About 17.2 feet of chain-link fence is required to complete the enclosure.
_____
We have assumed there is no chain-link fence along the 10 ft wall.
_____
The Law of Sines tells you that for sides a, b, c and opposite angles A, B, C, you have ...
a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)
For some given side 'a' and opposite angle A, the other two sides can be found from their opposite angles as ...
b = sin(B)·a/sin(A)
c = sin(C)·a/sin(A)

Alright, lets get started.
Suppose the original deck size: width = x feet
the width is one-fourth the length given in question means length = 4 x feet
Means the originally area =
Now the dimensions are changed.
New dimensions, width = (x + 6)
new length = (4x+10)
So, new area will be =
the area of the new rectangular deck is 128 ft2 larger than the area of the original deck, means
Subtracting from both sides
Subtracting 60 from both sides
Dividing 34 in both sides
Means width = 2 feet
Length would be = 4 time width = 4 * 2 = 8 feet
Means dimension of original deck would be = 2 feet and 8 feet :Answer
Hope it will help :)
Answer:
a)
And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:
b)
And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table or excel and we got:
Step-by-step explanation:
Previous concepts
Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".
The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".
Part a
Let X the random variable that represent the time for the step 1 and Y the time for the step 2, we define the random variable R= X+Y for the total time and the distribution for R assuming independence between X and Y is:
Where and
We are interested on this probability
And the best way to solve this problem is using the normal standard distribution and the z score given by:
If we apply this formula to our probability we got this:
And we can find this probability using the normal standard table or excel and we got:
Part b
And we can find this probability using the complement rule and the normal standard table or excel and we got:
