Answer:a=3.6 and b=4.8

Step-by-step explanation:(a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2)

Where c is hypotenuse is equal to 6. A right triangle is also known as a 3,4,5 triangle where the 2 legs are 3 and 4 and hypotenuse is 5. Find the factor in size difference by dividing your hypotenuse of 6 by the hypotenuse of 5 you get 1.2. Now multiply the 3 and 4 by 1 2 to get your answers of 3.6 and 4.8.

To check work simply plug in your legs as a and b

(3.6^2)+(4.8^2)=(6^2)

(12.96)+(23.04)=(36)

For number 5: 180 -139 = x

For number 6: x = 41

For number 7: x + 18 = 90 (not 100% sure)

For number 8: x = 72

For number 9: you could write an equation about an acute angle and divide it into 2 parts the have one side 3 + 8 and have the other x. Then you could go from there. I’m sorry if you can’t figure out number 9. I tried to think of something.

Answer:

  x = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle bisector divides the sides proportionally.

  (x -4)/9 = x/12

  4(x -4) = 3x . . . . . . . multiply by 36

  x = 16 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 16-3x to both sides, simplify

Find the missing measure <br><br><br> ; Help me understand how to solve this.
blsea [12.9K]
Use Soh Cah Toa. Soh(sin) is the Opposite side divided by the Hypotenuse side so in this case 21/20. Since we need the angle here we would use the inverse of sin. Your equation is Sin(x)=Opposite/Hypotenuse=21/20=1.05
Now solve sin(x)=1.05
Re-arange into
X=sin^-1 (1.05) but since you can’t have a inverse sin of a number more than one it is inconclusive or no answer

Answer:

1.6962 = 1.70 (2 dp)

0.4247 = 0.425 to 3 dp

0.007395 = 0.007 to 3 dp

0.007395 = 0.0074 to 4 dp

32549 = 32500 to 3 significant figures

32549 = 32550 to 4 significant figures

909520 = 910000 to 3 significant figures

909520 = 909500 to 4 significant figures

Step-by-step explanation:

1.6962 = 1.70 (2 dp)

0.4247 = 0.425 to 3 dp

0.007395 = 0.007 to 3 dp

0.007395 = 0.0074 to 4 dp

32549 = 32500 to 3 significant figures

32549 = 32550 to 4 significant figures

909520 = 910000 to 3 significant figures

909520 = 909500 to 4 significant figures
