Solving a right triangle ‼️ Can someone help me find B, b, and c❓Round to the nearest tenth.
Luda [366]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°

Subtract the sum of the 2 given angles from 180 for B

B = 180° - (90 + 39)° = 180° - 129° = 51°

Using the tangent and sine ratios in the right triangle for b and c

tan39° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{27}{b}

Multiply both sides by b

b × tan39° = 27 ( divide both sides by tan39° )

b = \frac{27}{tan39} ≈ 7.5 ( to the nearest tenth )

sin39° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{27}{c}

Multiply both sides by c

c × sin39° = 27 ( divide both sides by sin39° )

c = \frac{27}{sin39} ≈ 28.0 ( to the nearest tenth )

The rectangle below has an area of x^2-7x+10square meters and a width of x - 5 meters. What expression represents the length of
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

L = (x - 2) meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle = (x² - 7x + 10) m²

The width = (x - 5) m

length = ?

Area of a rectangle = length × width

x² - 7x + 10 = L(x -5)

note L = length

divide both sides by (x-5)

(x² - 7x + 10)/(x - 5) = L

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

Factorize x² - 7x + 10

find the numbers you can multiply to give you 10 and also add to give you -7

The numbers are -2 and -5. Therefore,

x² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0

x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) = 0

(x-5)(x-2) = 0

Let us go back to our division

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

x² - 7x + 10 = (x-5)(x-2)

L = (x-5)(x-2) / (x -5)

L = (x - 2) meters

Find ​(a) PQ to the nearest tenth and ​(b) the coordinates of the midpoint of __ pq.
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

a) 5units

b) (4.5, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the coordinate of P and Q be P(3, 2) and Q(6, 6)

PQ can be gotten using the distance formula;

PQ =√(6-2)²+(6-3)²

PQ = √4²+3²

PQ =√16+9

PQ =√25

PQ = 5units

Midpoint M is  expressed as;

M(X, Y) = {(x1+x2)/2, y1+y2/2}

X = x1+x2/2

X = 3+6/2

X= 9/2

X = 4.5

Similarly;

Y = y1+y2/2

Y = 2+6/2

Y = 8/2

Y = 4

Hence the midpoint of PQ is (4.5, 4)

Use the graph to write a linear function that relates y to x <br><br><br><br> y=
uysha [10]

Answer:

y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (6, 10) ← 2 points on the line

m = \frac{10-2}{6-0} = \frac{8}{6} = \frac{4}{3}

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, 2 ) ⇒ c = 2

y = \frac{4}{3} x + 2 ← equation of line
