Answer: 0.99

Step-by-step explanation:

SOH CAH TOA

CAH: cosine = adjacent/hypotenuse

Cosine of angle w = 84/85 = 0.98823 ≈ 0.99

Angle Y is 90 degrees, meaning it's a right triangle. Therefore angle W is the top/tip of a triangle, while X is the angle next to Y. If you plug in the information afterwards and follow the trigonometry rule (SOH CAH TOA) you will find your answer.

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

the two triangles are the same shape but not the same size

Step-by-step explanation:

an equilateral triangle has all equal sides. if one triangle has a side length of 4 inches, it'll be smaller than the triangle with the side length of 5 inches but just because they're different sizes doesn't mean they're a different shape. (i don't know if this is right but I'm pretty sure it is)

Which number is equivalent to 0.45 repeating ?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer: 5/11

Tip:

You can solve for these repeating fractions by putting the repeating digits over 9's!

For example, 0.33 repeating:

33/99 = 1/3

And in the case of your problem:

0.454545...

45/99 = 5/11 (simplify!)

9 exponent 10<br> Divide by 9 exponent 11
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

\frac{\sqrt{110} }{11} or \frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{11} }

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you mean \frac{9\sqrt{10} }{9\sqrt{11} }

there is a common factor of 9 in the numerator and denominator so we can cancel out to form \frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{11} }

\frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{11} } is technically a correct answer, but I will go ahead to rationalize the denominator

multiply \frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{11} } by some form of 1. this case, we will use \frac{\sqrt{11} }{\sqrt{11} } as our 1.

\frac{\sqrt{10} }{\sqrt{11} }*\frac{\sqrt{11} }{\sqrt{11} } = \frac{\sqrt{10} *\sqrt{11} }{\sqrt{11} *\sqrt{11} } = \frac{\sqrt{110} }{11}
