7 0

Answer:

Short leg = √3 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

the opposite angle of long leg is 60°

hypotenuse : x

sin 60° = 3/x = √3 / 2

x = (3 x 2) / √3 = 2√3

short leg length (s)

Cos 60° = 1/2 = s / x = s / 2√3

s = √3

Find the value of x in each of the given figures.
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Given figure is a parallelogram

Area = 144 cm²

base  * altitude = 144

16 * x = 144

x =144/16

x = 9 cm

2)2) Trapezium

Area = \frac{a+b}{2}*h      ; {a and b are parallel sides of trapezium}

( 37 +27 /2) * x  = 480 cm²

64/2 * h = 480

32 *  h = 480

h = 480/32

h = 15 cm

Liana's class was going on a very exciting school trip, but when Liana got to school, the school bus had already left! Frantic,
Llana [10]

Answer:

  • <u>They can catch up with the bus at 10:40 am.</u>

Explanation:

1. Set the time when Liana and her mother can leave (8:40 am) as t₀ = 0; thus the time of driving for them will be t.

2. The average speed at whic Liana's mother drive: 60 miles/hour

3. Thus, the distance they will have driven will be:

  • distance = average speed × time = 60t

4. The time the bus left was 8:00 am, which is 40 minutes before Liana and her mom can leave.

Thus, the time wil have driven when Liana and her mom have driven t hours  minutes will be: t + 40 min / 60 min/ hour = t + 2/3

5. The average speed of teh bus is 45 miles / hour

6. The distance the bus will have driven will be:

  • distance = average speed × time = 45(t + 2/3)

7. When Liana and her mother catch up with the bus, the distances driven by both of them are equal:

  • 60t = 45(t + 2/3)
  • 60t = 45t + 30
  • 60t - 45t = 30
  • 15t = 30
  • t = 30/15 = 2

Thus, Liana and her mom can catch up with the bus after 2 hours, since 8:40 am; this is, 10:40 am.
