The answer is c because of the fact that if the 2 angles at 55 and 20 that means that you have to add them together and get to 180 for the triangle to be true
Hi!
This is a fun one, as it delves into basic trigonometry.
We're going to use the Pythagorean theorem here, which says that for right triangles where "c" is the hypotenuse,
a² + b² = c²
We have to split this large triangle into two parts, both of which are right triangles. (This is why they drew a line in the middle to tell you that the larger triangle is composed of two right triangles.)
Let's do the one on the right first.
We know that the length of the hypotenuse is 10, and that the length of one of the legs is 6.5. If we plug this into our equation, we'll get the length of the other leg. I'm choosing "b" to be 6.5, but it really doesn't matter if you pick "a" or "b", so long as you reserve "c" for the hypotenuse (longest side).
a² + 6.5² = 10²
a² + 42.25 = 100
a² = 57.75
√a² = √57.75
a ≈ 7.6
Therefore, the length of DC is about 7.6.
Find the length of AD using the same method (7.5 is the hypotenuse "c", and 6.5 is one of the legs "a" or "b"). Then, once you have AD, add the lengths of AD and DC to get AC.
Have a great one!
First we have the work out the area of 1 room. So that is 8ft * 12ft which is 96ft^2. And if there are 2 of these rooms, then we multiply this value by 2. Giving us a total area of 192ft^2.
What does gas cost answer then I will give you the answer
Answer:
rearrange them properly to get
x-y=7
-3x+y=12
( by elimination method)
x-y = 7
-3x+y=
(x+ –3x) + (–y+y) = (7+12)
-2x+0= 19
x= -9.5
from eqn(i)
x-y=7
-9.5 - y=7
-y=16.5
y= -16.5
