It will be six laps because 8 times three equal 24 and 2 laps in 8 minutes each 8 min will be two so 2 times three equal six
Here is my answer. In this problem, you need to use the similarity of triangles. I hope this is helpful.
Answer:
Whats the X given for this problem? ex.... X = 6 and the problem is:
2x (>) or (<) or = to 13
substitute ( x = 6 ) in 2x and you get 12 is < 13.
So this is considered a "special triangle." The 30-60-90 triangle states that if the short leg is x, then the hypotenuse is 2x and the long leg is x√3.
Since we have the short leg, to find the hypotenuse, or y in this case, multiply the short leg by 2:
17 × 2 = 34
Next, to find the long leg, or x in this case, multiply the short leg by √3:
17 × √3 = 17√3
<u>In short, x = 17√3 and y = 34. The correct option is the last option.</u>
