2. Find the value of x and y rounded to the nearest tenth.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Using relations in a right triangle, it is found that the values of x and y are given by: x = 24, y = 46.4, given by option a.

<h3>What are the relations in a right triangle?</h3>

The relations in a right triangle are given as follows:

  • The sine of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
  • The cosine of an angle is given by the length of the adjacent side to the angle divided by the length of the hypotenuse.
  • The tangent of an angle is given by the length of the opposite side to the angle divided by the length of the adjacent side to the angle.

First, we start with the vertical line h that divides y, that is <u>opposite to an angle of 30º, with hypotenuse 34</u>, hence:

sin(30º) = h/34

0.5 = h/34

h = 17.

Then, h is opposite to an angle of 45º, while the hypotenuse is x, hence:

\sin{45^\circ} = \frac{17}{x}

x = \frac{17}{\sin{45^\circ}}

x = 24.

y is divided into two segments.

  • The first is the adjacent to the angle of 30º, while the hypotenuse is 34.
  • The second is adjacent to the angle of 45º, while the hypotenuse is 24.

Then:

\cos{30^\circ} = \frac{y_1}{34}

y_1 = 34\cos{30^\circ} = 29.4

\cos{45^\circ} = \frac{y_2}{24}

y_2 = 24\cos{45^\circ} = 17

Then, the value of y is given by:

y = y_1 + y_2 = 29.4 + 17 = 46.4.

A parallelogram with a base of y units and a height of x units is changed to have a new base of 3y units and a height of 2x unit
nataly862011 [7]
The formula for the area of a parallelogram is

A=b*h    where b=base and h=height

if the base were to increase by 3times and the height were to increase by 2 times then
6A=b*h
The area of the parallelogram would be 6 times larger

So if the original area was 47units², then the new area would be

47*6=282units²

Answer=282units²
