Answer:
32.78
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that we have two right triangles joined together, with one having adjacent side a, with a side of 12 ft opposite reference angle 30°, and the other one having adjacent side b, with a side of 12 ft opposite reference angle 45°. Thus, a + b = length of AC.
Let's find a and b.
Finding a:
Reference angle = 30°
Opp = 12 ft
Adj = a
Using trigonometric ratio formula, we have:
tan(30) = 12/a
Multiply both sides by a
a*tan(30) = 12
Divide both sides by tan(30)
a = 12/tan(30)
a = 20.78 (nearest hundredth)
Finding b:
Reference angle = 45°
Opp = 12 ft
Adj = b
Using trigonometric ratio formula, we have:
tan(45) = 12/b
Multiply both sides by a
b*tan(45) = 12
Divide both sides by tan(45)
b = 12/tan(45)
a = 12
Length of AC = 20.78 + 12 = 32.78
The parabola's vertex would not be on the x-axis or y-axis and there would be no x-intercepts.
Given:
The figure of a construction.
To find:
The correct option that represents the given construction.
Solution:
In the given figure, the given angle is angle CAB.
The steps for the given figure are:
1. Draw a ray PQ.
2. Mark an arc BC on the given angle and mark the same arc on the line and the intersection of line and arc is point Q.
3. Set the compass of the length BA.
4. Put the compass on the point Q mark arc that intersect the first arc. The intersection of arcs is R.
5. Draw a ray PR.
These are the steps of construction to copy an angle.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
