To answer this question, you first need to know what SohCahToa is.

S- opposite over hypotenuse

C- adjacent over hypotenuse

T- opposite over adjacent

In this situation, they have made it easier for you as they have given you the quotient of the opposite and adjacent sides (3.4) . Now in order to find an angle, you take the inverse of your expression. So instead of just Tan, you would plug in Tan^-1. So plug it in:

Tan^-1 (3.4)

Answer is 73.6 degrees.

Answer:

3.4028 x 10^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

First you make the 9400 into scientific notation:

9.4x10^3

Then you combine like terms

(3.62x9.4)(10^-5x10^3)

Finally you simplify

34.028x10^-2

3.4028x10^-1

The sum of two numbers is 80 If four times the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number, the result is 10. Find the t

timama [110]

This can be solved using a system of equations.
$\left \{ {{x+y=80} \atop {x-4y=10} \right. 
$
Subtract y from both sides.
$x=80-y$
Substitute:
$80-y-4y=80-5y=10$
Subtract 80 from both sides:
$5y=70$
Divide both sides by 5:
$y= \frac{70}{5} =14$
Substitute.
$x=80-14=66$

Answer: b) Large blue t-shirt & Medium RC jeans

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The subscript numbers attached to the matrix letter represents the:

ROW, COLUMN

$A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a_{1,1}&a_{1, 2}&a_{1, 3}\\a_{2,1}&a_{2, 2}&a_{2, 3}\\a_{3,1}&a_{3, 2}&a_{3, 3}\end{array}\right] \qquad B=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}a_{1,1}&b_{1, 2}&b_{1, 3}\\b_{2,1}&b_{2, 2}&b_{2, 3}\\b_{3,1}&b_{3, 2}&b_{3, 3}\end{array}\right]\\$

A₁,₃ = 1st row, 3rd column

1st row is Blue, 3rd column is Large

B₃,₂ = 3rd row, 2nd column

3rd row is RC jeans, 2nd column is Medium

A₁,₃ + B₃,₂ = Large blue t-shirt & Medium RC jeans
