Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, you either need x or y. So x or y can be the missing values. The most you can do is simply move one of the terms to the other side.
You didn't provide more information regarding triangle but from given options, it seems that triangle has ratio from shortest side to longest side would be 5 : 12 : 13
So 13 would be hypotenuse since it is longest.
Now A cannot be right angle because tangent is not defined at 90°.
Also tan(A) would be ratio of opponent side to adjacent side (think SOH CAH TOA)
So either opposite side would be 5 or 12, and adjacent side would be 12 or 5 respectively.
So the answer is either 5 / 12 or 12 / 5 but only option provided is 12/5 so that would be your answer.
Final answer: 12 / 5
OK. Then let's solve for ' r '. That means you have to come up with an equation that says r = everything else.
Step #1:
Write the equation you're given: <span>S = L (1 - r)
Let's divide each side by ' L ': S/L = 1 - r
Subtract 1 from each side : S/L - 1 = -r
Multiply each side by -1 : <em> 1 - S/L = r</em>
and there you have it.

Assuming no border or waste, 9m by 16 m translates to 29.52' x 52.49'.
use 32/8=4 sheets of plywood to cover the width on the 8' side.
For the length, use 52/4=13 pieces on the 4' side.
This gives a total of 4*13=52 sheets.
The extra 0.49' x 29.52 can be covered using the extra from the last four sheets for the width.
Check:
Area to be covered: 29.52*52.49=1550 sq. ft.
Area of plywood supplied = 52*4'x8'= 1664 sq. ft, > 1550 sq.ft.
