Answer:

distance of diver 1 from the shark ≈ 18.88 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The illustration forms a triangle. The base of the triangle which is their distance apart is given as 30 m . The known angle of the triangle are 52° and 39°. To find the unknown side we subtract the sum of 52° and 39° from 180°. Note that the total angle in a triangle is 180°.

Therefore,

180 - (52 + 39) = 180 - 91  = 89 °. Now the three angle of the triangles are 52°, 39° and 89°.

Using the law of sine we can find the distance of the diver 1 from the shark.

let a = distance of the first diver to the shark.

a/sin 39° = 30/sin 89°

cross multiply

a sin 89° = 30 sin 39°

divide both sides by sin 89°

a = 30 sin 39°/sin 89°

a = 30 × 0.62932039105 /sin 89°

a = 18.8796117315 /0.99984769515

a = 18.8824876258

a ≈ 18.88 m

161 1-foot tiles.

EXPLANATION:

To find how many tiles we need,
We must find the area of the kitchen.

To find the area, you multiply
length x width

In this question,
the length is 14
the width is 11.5

14 x 11.5 is 161.

So 161 1-foot tiles to cover the kitchen.

Hope this helps! Have a gud day!

PLEASE HELP (IM GIVING 100 POINTS)
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

area of triangle = 1/2*base*height

small triangle = 1/2*4*3 = 6

Big triangle = 1/2*8*6= 24

24/6=4

the big triangle is 4 times the size of the big triangle. so the small triangle would be 1/4 the size. hence D1/4(xyz) answer is A

Burka [1]
So here is the answer. Initially, Ed's toy cars compared to Pete's toy cars was 5:2. So for every 5 cars that Ed has, Pete has 2. Now that Ed gave 30 cars to Pete. So here it goes. The total number of ratio units is 5+2=7, so each will have an equal number if they both have 3.5 ratio units. That is, if Ed transfers to Pete 1.5 ratio units, their car counts will be equal. Thus 1.5 ratio units = 30 cars, or 1 ratio unit = 20 cars. Therefore, this makes <span> 7*20 cars = 140 cars.
</span>Hope this helps.
