Answer:

The answer to your question is 14° and 76°

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

leg 1 = x

leg 2 = x/4

angle 1 = ?

angle 2 = ?

Process

To solve problem use trigonometric functions. We must use the trigonometric function that relates both legs (tangent).

    tangent Ф = Opposite side / Adjacent side

-Substitution

    tan Ф = (x/4) / x

-Simplification

    tan Ф = x / 4x

    tan Ф = 1/4

-  Find Ф

     Ф = tan⁻¹(1/4) =  14°

- Find the other acute angle

  The sum of the internal angles in a triangles equals 180°

       Ф + Ф₁ + 90° = 180

-Solve for Ф₁

        Ф₁  = 180 - 90 - 14

-Result

        Ф₁ = 76°

Answer:

44.58

Step-by-step explanation:

v=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}\\ given r= 2.2\\\pi =3.14\\hence:v=\frac{4}{3}  (3.14)(2.2)^3=44.58

Slope-intercept form: y = mx + b [m is the slope, b is the y-intercept, or the y value when x = 0 ---> (0, y)]

To find the equation's y-intercepts, you can rearrange the variables, and isolate/get y by itself

#1

cx + ay = b     Subtract cx on both sides

ay = b - cx        Divide a on both sides

y=\frac{b}{a}-\frac{c}{a}x    (0, \frac{b}{a}) is your answer

Do the same for the rest, and you should get:

#2 (0, \frac{a}{b})

#3 (0, \frac{c}{b})

#4 (0, \frac{c}{a})
