Step-by-step explanation:

Use SOH-CAH-TOA.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite / Adjacent

You're given an angle, the adjacent side to that angle, and the hypotenuse. So use cosine.

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

cos 37° = 48 / x

Multiply both sides by x.

x cos 37° = 48

Divide both sides by cos 37°.

x = 48 / cos 37°

If desired, use a calculator to evaluate.

x ≈ 60.1

Amanda used 24 grams of paint to paint a wooden cube. When it dried, she cut the cube into 8 equal cubes. How many more grams of

kari74 [83]

Answer:

<h2>Amanda needs 72 grams of paint</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that she already painted one face of each cube, that is, 8 faces in total, and she used 24 grams for that.

Now, there remain 3 faces per cube to be painted, which means there are 24 faces.

Then, we use the rule of three, if she used 24 grams of paint for 8 faces, how much grams of paint she would need to paint 24 faces?

$24 \times \frac{24}{8}= 72 \ grams$

Therefore, Amanda needs 72 grams of paint for the unpainted surfaces.
