Answer:

Salena's got to the library first

Step-by-step explanation:

12½ miles = 25/2 miles

2½ miles = 5/2 miles

5¾ miles = 23/4 miles

114 miles = 114 miles

Salena's time of arrival =

if 5/2 miles : 5 minutes

then 25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷ 5/2. × 5

25/2 × 2/5 × 5

25 minutes

Justin 's time of arrival=

if 23/4 miles : 12 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷ 23/4 ×12

25/2 × 4/23 ×12

26 minutes approximately

Brandon 's time of arrival=

if 114 miles : 258 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷114 ×258

25/2 × 1/114×258

25 × 1/57 × 258

113 minutes approximately

Please heeeeeeeeelp! Ill give brainliest!
Alinara [238K]

Step-by-step explanation:

ok so as u know the angles of a triangle add up to 180.

So we will be using that for help.

S+R+T=180

12x+13x+12x-4+2-3=180

37x-5=180

37x=185

x=5

Now we will plug in the value for x to find each angle

S= 13(5)-4

=61

T=12(5)-3

=57

R=12(5)+2

=62

Hope this helped:)

When i am solving for the sides of a right triangle when will i use trigonometric functions
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. We need to use trigonometric functions to find them when we don't have any angle other than 90 degree shown.

Three common trigonometric ratios are the sine (sin), cosine (cos), and tangent (tan). These are defined for acute angle.

However when we have one angle given with the 90 degree we can deduct without trigonometry but we would use all angles to find the hypotenuse or all angles to find the side of a right angle.

Alternatively, we cna do this with one given angle but if we have one, we might as well work out the other one without trigonometry and do a division with Sin = 25 (sin 35) sin 90  / sin 55

is one example when given the base 25ft that would find the hypotenuse or the length of elevation for buildings looking down or zip-wire questions.

Step-by-step explanation:

       A

       |  \

       l     \

4cm|        \ 5cm

       |          \

       |            \

   B | -  -  -  -  \ C      

          3cm

Suppose we wanted to find sin( A) in△ABC    

(The height of the wall in elevation questions would be used above the base shown 3cm at the start) Sin = 3 (sin 35)° sin 90°  / sin 55° to find the height side (4).

Sine is defined as the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

sin(A) =  hypotenuse          ​= AB/BC        = 3/5

             / opposite
