- tan∅ = opposite over adjacent
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
Angle = 28°
Opposite leg of angle = 8 ft
Adjacent leg of angle = x ft
<u>Step 2: Find </u><em><u>x</u></em>
- Substitute: tan28° = 8/x
- Multiply <em>x </em>on both sides: xtan28° = 8
- Divide tan28° on both sides: x = 8/tan28°
- Evaluate: x = 15.0458
- Round: x ≈ 15.0 ft
Answer:
6/10
Step-by-step explanation:
2 × 3 = 6
5 × 2 = 10
OR
6/10 = 3/5
The line is parallel so it has the same slope as the other line, -4.
Substitute the x and y variables with the given points and find the y-intercept.
(-8, 6)
y = -4x + b
6 = -4(8) + b
6 = -32 + b
6 + 32 = b
38 = b
So the equation is:
y = -4 + 38
