How to find x using trigonometry

Sine of the angle = opposite side over the hypotenuse

sin(42°) = 6.5/h
rearrange, solve for h
h = 6.5/sin(42°)
h = 9.7 cm

For the other triangle, the angle is unknown. I'd split it into two right triangles; down angle x since it is an isosceles it will be bisected into two equivalent triangles.

The hypotenuse we just found is now split in half. 9.7/2 = 4.9 base of the new smaller right triangle.

The new hypotenuse of the smaller triangle is 7.4 cm

Then you have..

sin(x/2) = 4.9/7.4
sin(x/2) = 0.67
use inverse sine function
arcSin(0.67) = x/2
41 = x/2
82° = x

There are many ways to solve this problem. This is just what I thought of first using trig.

Find the domain: y= 6+9x 6− x−1
inna [77]

Answer:

Domain = {All real values of x EXCEPT x = -5 and x = 7}

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a rational function given as y=\frac{6+9x}{6-|x-1|}y=

6−∣x−1∣

6+9x

The domain is the set of all real value of x for which the function is defined.

For rational functions, we need to find which value of x makes the denominator equal to 0. We need to exclude those values from the domain.

Now

6 - |x-1| = 0

|x-1| = 6

x- 1 = 6

or

-(x-1) = 6

x = 6+1 = 7

and

-x+1=6

x = 1-6 = -5

So, the x values of -5 and 7 makes this function undefined. So the domain is the set of all real numbers except x = -5 and x = 7

vitfil [10]

Answer:

α=39.80°

Step-by-step explanation:

applying the law of sin and cos, we have:

sin\alpha =\frac{75}{117}=0.6410\\\alpha =acs(0.64)= 39.79

and to the nearest tenth of a degree

α=39.80°
