Look at the triangle: A right angle triangle is shown with hypotenuse equal to 17 centimeters. An acute angle of the triangle is

labeled as x degrees. The side adjacent to the acute angle has length 15 centimeters and the side opposite to the acute angle has length 8 centimeters. What is the value of cos x°?

Answer:

\frac{15}{17}

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure

Hypotenuse = AC = 17 cm

An acute angle of the triangle is labeled as x degrees.i.e.∠ACB = x

The side adjacent to the acute angle has length 15 centimeters i.e. BC = 15 cm

The side opposite to the acute angle has length 8 centimeters.i.e. AB = 8 cm

Now we will use trigonometric ratio

cos \theta  =\frac{Base}{Hypotenuse}

cos x  =\frac{BC}{AC}

So, cos x  =\frac{15}{17}

Hence the value of cos x° is \frac{15}{17}

Answer:

  • a sphere
  • the definition needs to restrict all of the points to a plane

Step-by-step explanation:

In 3-dimensional Euclidean space, a sphere is the set of all points the same distance from a given point. The given definition of a circle only applies when the given point and the solution set are in the same plane, and the geometry is Euclidean.

What is 0.69696969 expressed as the quotient of two integers in simplest form?
timofeeve [1]

When written as the quotient of two integers,

           0.69696969  =  <em>69,696,969 / 100,000,000 .</em>

<u>If</u> you had said that the ' 69 ' keeps repeating forever and never ends,
then that decimal would represent the fraction
                                                                       23 / 33 .
