Answer:

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle 30.7° is also the angle of the upper interior angle of the triangle (near the cabin)

Use the tan function:

opposite = 200 yards

adjacent = x

tan(30.7°) = (opposite / adjacent)

tan(30.7°) = 200 yards/x

x * tan(30.7°) = 200 yards

x = 200 yards/ tan(30.7°)

x= 200/ 0.594

x = 336.7 yards.

336.7 yards away from the cabin....

1. a single standard number cube is rolled, what is the probability of getting 4 or 5?
True [87]
There are 6 sides on a standard number cube. Numbers are listed on it from 1-6. This being said, 4 and 5 together make up 2/6 of the cube. Since this fraction can be reduced, this leaves us with C. 1/3

Pply the converse of the pythagorean theorem to determine if it's a right triangle. Is the triangle a right triangle? No, 92+402
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Yes, 9^2+40^2=41^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the Pythagoras’ theorem, the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle equals the sum of the squares of the two other sides

From what we have , the side lengths are 9, 40 and 41

As we can see, 41 is the longest side length and that makes it the hypotenuse

The square of the two other sides is 40^2 + 9^2 = 1,681

Also, 41^2 = 1,681

As we can see, the sum of the squares equal the square of the hypotenuse

Since this follows the theorem, we can conclude that the triangle is a right triangle

Determina el centro,radio y gráfica de la circunferencia:(x+2)2 + (y-3)2=121
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

La ecuación genérica para un círculo centrado en el punto (a, b), de radio R, es:

(x - a)^2 + (x - b)^2 = R^2

Entonces si miramos a nuestra ecuación:

(x + 2)^2 + (y - 3)^2 = 121

Tendremos el centro en:

(-2, 3)

el radio está dado por:

R^2 = 121

R = √121 = 11

La gráfica de esta circunferencia se puede ver en la imagen de abajo.
