Answer:
20°
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles in a ∆ = 180°
Therefore, 
Use this expression to find the value of x, then find the measure of angle A.
Subtract 20 from both sides
Divide both sides by 20
Find measure of angle A.
Angle A is given as 
Plug in the value of x and solve
Answer:
Kayla bought 7 tacos and 10 hotdogs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of hotdogs be x.
Let the number of tacos be y.
i) It is given that x = y + 3
ii) It is also given that 3.5x + 4y = 63, therefore 7x + 8y = 126
iii) substituting the value of x from i) in ii) we get 7(y + 3) + 8y = 126
therefore 15y + 21 = 126
therefore 15y = 105
therefore y = 7
Therfore Kayla bought 7 tacos
iv) Using the value of y from iii) in i) we x = 7 + 3 = 10
Therefore Kayla bought 10 hotdogs
Answer:
577
Step-by-step explanation:
Using PEMDAS
(Parenthesis)(Exponents)(Multiplication/Division)(Addition/Subtration)
So:
Something that a right triangle is characterised by is the fact that we may use Pythagoras' theorem to find the length of any one of its sides, given that we know the length of the other two sides. Here, we know the length of the hypotenuse and one other side, therefor we can easily use the theorem to solve for the remaining side.
Now, Pythagoras' Theorem is defined as follows:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2, where c is the length of the hypotenuse and a and b are the lengths of the other two sides.
Given that we know that c = 24 and a = 8, we can find b by substituting c and a into the formula we defined above:
c^2 = a^2 + b^2
24^2 = 8^2 + b^2 (Substitute c = 24 and a = 8)
b^2 = 24^2 - 8^2 (Subtract 8^2 from both sides)
b = √(24^2 - 8^2) (Take the square root of both sides)
b = √512 (Evaluate 24^2 - 8^2)
b = 16√2 (Simplify √512)
= 22.627 (to three decimal places)
I wasn't sure about whether by 'approximate length' you meant for the length to be rounded to a certain number of decimal places or whether you were meant to do more of an estimate based on your knowledge of surds and powers. If you need any more clarification however don't hesitate to comment below.
