Answer:

n = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we need to write the questions mathematically and then solve

72 = 80% of n

72   = \frac{80}{100} ×  n

72  =  \frac{80 n}{100}

Multiply both-side of the equation by 100

72 × 100 =  \frac{80 n}{100}   ×100

At the right-hand side of the equation, 100 will cancel-out 100, leaving us with just 80 n

7200 = 80 n

Divide both-side of the equation by 80

\frac{7200}{80}  =  \frac{80n}{80}

(On the right-hand side of the equation, 80 will cancel out 80 leaving us with just n while on the left-hand side of the equation 7200 will be divide by 80)

\frac{7200}{80}   =   n

90  =  n

n = 90

Well I'm not sure what the answer would be since I'm not that smart but I did get the answer of 90, I did this by dividing 72 by 80 which equals .9 and I multiplied that by 100 and got 90.

A right triangle has one side that measures 4in. The angle opposite that side measures 80 degrees. What is the length of the hyp
Crazy boy [7]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

4/sin(80)

which is approximately 4.06



Discussion:

From the triangle, not drawn too accurately  (see attachment)


sin(80) = side opposite /hypotenuse   =>

sin (80) =  4/c            =>       multiply both sides by "c"

c sin(80) = 4/c * c      =>      

c sin(80) = 4               =>      divide both sides by sin(80)

c = 4/sin(80)

and 4/sin(80) is approximately 4.06


Thank you,

MrB
