Answer:
2 - √3
Step-by-step explanation:
tan45 = 1
tan60 = √3
2 tan 45 - tan 60
2(1) - √3
=> 2 - √3
Ah, this my friend, is actually easier than it looks. I promise. Sort of. XD
Alright, so let's start with the basics. You have two shapes that look congruent, and obviously ARE congruent, but how they are congruent can be different.
HIJ (Shape 1) is congruently equal to (~=) shape LKJ (The order does indeed matter) by what?
Well, in terms of congruency, you have about 8 different ways, I only remember 4.
SSS (Side, Side, Side)
SAS (Side, Angle, Side)
ASA (Angle, Side, Side)
AAA (Angle, Angle, Angle)
This means that whichever it is, each must be identified as congruent to the other. If it's SAS, you must know, for certain (not you personally, you can guess, but that's not what they want, they want you to know based on the info they give you) that there are 2 sides that are congruent, and 1 angle that are congruent. Same for all the others, just plug and play.
In the text, this question mentions that side HJ is congruently equal to JL. This means you have 1 set of sides identified as congruent.
The text ALSO mentions that angle H is also congruently equal to angle L. This means you now have 1 set of angles that are congruently equal.
So far, you know you have 1 congruent set of sides (S) and One congruent set of angles (A)
Now, you also can see that based on what we already know, HIJ extends to LKJ, meaning the other angle would ALSO be congruent.
This leaves you with "ASA" (Angle, Side, Angle), meaning 2 sets of angles are congruent, and 1 set of sides.
Your answer is A
~Hope this helps!
Did you see my question i still want to help
<u>Given:</u>
A triangular piece is cut out of a rectangular piece of paper to make the class banner.
<u>To find:</u>
The area of the class banner.
<u>Solution:</u>
The rectangular piece of paper is 14 inches long and 
inches wide.
From the given diagram, the triangle has a base length of the same 8 inches and has a height of 
inches long.
To determine the area of the banner, we subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle.
The area of a triangle 
The area of the triangle 
square inches.
The area of a rectangle 
The area of the rectangle 
square inches.
The area of the class banner 
square inches.
So the banner has an area of 100 square inches which is the first option.
