Answer:
m∠x = 10°
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are dealing with a <u>right triangle</u> and its two sides and one angle, we can use <u>trigonometry ratios</u>. Remember them all with the acronym SohCahToa.
"o" is for opposite side, "a" is for adjacent side, "h" is for hypotenuse side.
The ratios are:
sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse
cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse
tanθ = opposite/adjacent
θ means the "angle of reference", or the angle you know or want to find. This determines which side is adjacent (touching) or opposite (not touching). The hypotenuse (longest side) does not change.
In this triangle, θ = x. The sides we know are hypotenuse and opposite. Therefore, we will use the sinθ ratio.
sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse
sinx = CB/AB Substitute the labels in the diagram
sinx = 4/23 Substitute known values (side lengths)
x = sin⁻¹(4/23) Isolate 'x'. Use calculator to solve.
x = 10.015....° Exact answer
x ≈ 10° Round to the nearest degree
Therefore the measure of angle x (m∠x) is 10°.
Answer:
-7/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Recall that slope, m, is defined as the ratio rise to run: rise/run.
Note that if we start at x = -2 (an arbitrary choice), and move 6 units to the right, we end up at x = 4. This is the 'run.' Simultaneously, y starts at 1 and decreases to - 6, a change of -7.
Thus, the slope of the line through these two points is m = rise/run = -7/4
Answer:
h < -8
Step-by-step explanation:
Add -16 to both sides to solve for h.
h - 16 + 16 < -24 + 16
h < -8
