Answer:

x = 45.6°

Step-by-step explanation:

As we can see, this is a right triangle, so there are known relationships

well to start we have to know the relationship between angles, legs and the hypotenuse

α = x°

a: adjacent

o: opposite = 5

h: hypotenuse = 7

sin α = o/h

cos α = a/h

tan α = o/a

we see that it has (angle, hypotenuse, opposite)

is the sine

sin α = o/h

sin x = 5/7

x = sin^-1 (5/7)

x = 45.58°

if we want to round to the nearest tenth

x = 45.58° = 45.6°

A sailboat leaves port and sails 12 kilometers west and then 9 kilometers north.

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: The sailboat is at a distance of 15 km from the port.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a sail boat leaves port and sails 12 kilometers west and then 9 kilometers north.

We are to find the distance between the sailboat from the port in kilometers.

Since the directions west and north are at right-angles, we can visualize the movement of the sailboat in the form of a right-angled triangle as shown in the attached figure.

The sailboat moves leaves the port at P and reach O after sailing 12 km west. From point O, again it moves towards north 9 km and reach the point S.

PS = ?

Using the Pythagoras theorem, we have from right-angled triangle SOP,

Thus, the sailboat is at a distance of 15 km from the port.

two verticies of paralellogram ABCD are A(-6,-1) and B(-5,3). The intersection of the diagonals, E, are (-2, 1/2). Determine the

masya89 [10]

Answer:

D(2,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a parallelogram gram bisects each other.

Therefore E is the midpoint of AD.

Let the coordinates of D be (a,b).

By the midpoint rule:

$( \frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2}) = ( - 2, \frac{1}{2} )$

This implies that:

$( \frac{ - 6+a}{2} ,\frac{ - 1+b}{2}) = ( - 2, \frac{1}{2} )$

This implies that:

$( \frac{ - 6+a}{2} = - 2 ,\frac{ - 1+b}{2} = \frac{1}{2} )$

$( - 6+a =- 4 , - 1+b = 1 ) \\ ( a =- 4 + 6 , b = 1 + 1 ) \\ ( a =2 , b =2 )$
