Complimentary just means that they add to be 90, so you take 90 degrees and subtract the angle you already have in order to get the complementary angle
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is right triangle trig. The side opposite the x is 8, and the side adjacent to the x is 5. The tangent ratio uses those sides. We need to find what angle has a tangent of 8/5. To do this, make sure your calculator is in degree mode. Then hit "2nd" then tan and you will see tan with a little -1 and a parenthesis. Enter 8/5 and hit "enter" and you will get an angle measure of 57.9946. Rounded to the nearest degree this is 58 degrees. That's your answer!
Answer:
y= -7
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you replace the x with zero.
y=4*0-7
Then, you simplify the right side of the equation.
y=0-7
y= -7
Answer:
x=10°
y = 12°
Step-by-step explanation:
<TSV = 5x + 4x = 90°
=> 9x = 90°
Divide by 9,
x = 10°
<RSU = 10y + 10° + 5x = 180°
=> 10y + 10° + 5*10° = 180°
=> 10y + 10° + 50° = 180°
=> 10y + 60° = 180°
Subtract 60° on both sides,
10y = 180° - 60° = 120°
Divide by 10,
y = 120° / 10 = 12°
