27.96m

This resembles a triangle(a right angled triangle in fact!)

If ACB is 34 and AC is 50, we must use trigonometry.

Here we should be using cosine

SOH

CAH

TOA

Cosine = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Adjacent = BC = x

Hypotenuse = AC = 50

cos(x/50) = 34

Using a calculator,

x = 41.45

Now we should be finding the width of the river ( Line AB)

50² - 41.45² = 781.8975

√781.8975 ≈ 27.96

Thus, width of river is 27.96 cm

Answer:

33.7 m

Step-by-step explanation:

tan ACB = AB/AC

tan 34 = AB/50

AB = 50tan(34)

AB = 33.7254258421

What are the equivalent fractions for 2 1/5 and 1 5/6 using 30 as the common denominator
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

2 6/30 and 1 25/30

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to find 30÷5 and 30÷6. You do this because you need to know the multiplier when you create an equivalent fraction. 30÷5 is 6 and 30÷6 is 5. 2 1/5. You need to multiply the 1 and 5 by 6, that is 2 6/30. 1 5/6. 5 and 6 multiplied by 5 is 25 and 30. 1 5/6=1 25/30
