Using the Pythagorean theorem we can solve for the radius
see attached picture:
Answer:
x = 97.6
Step-by-step explanation:
cos = adjacent over hypotenuse

* multiply each side by x *

* divide each side by cos ( 55 ) *

we're left with x = 97.63302055
Our last step is to round to the nearest tenth of a foot
We get that x = 97.6
Answer:
x = 17
, y = 34
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use trig ratios to find x and y
note exact values sin30° =
, tan30° = 
sin30° =
= 
multiply both sides by y
y sin30° = 17 ( divide both sides by sin30° )
y =
= 34
tan30° =
= 
multiply both sides by x
x tan30° = 17 ( divide both sides by tan30° )
x =
= 17
The length x of a diagonal support, to the nearest tenth of a foot?
x≈ 13 feet
Cuz I said so
Answer:
Population is the total number of people that fall into the description of those that the research concerns.
In this case, Population is: Everyone who signed a card saying that they intend to quit smoking.
Sample. This is a subset of the population that the research is based on.
Sample = 1,000 people surveyed.
Parameter and Statistic are both descriptive measures but parameter is for the population and statistic is for the sample.
Parameter = Percentage of total population who have not smoked in 6 months.
Statistic = 21% of sample who have not smoked in 3 months.
