Answer:
12.58 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Ron wants to build a 14 ft. ramp with an angle of the rise of 26° and the height of the ramp is about 6.1 ft.
We have to find out the length of the base of the ramp.
Now, the ramp forms a right triangle with the base and the height and here, the hypotenuse of the triangle is the ramp itself i.e. 14 ft.
If the base length is x feet, then we can write using the trigonometry
⇒ x = 14 cos 26° = 12.58 feet. (Answer)
I would need to have the same book and go to page 73 to be able to answer it. By the way, do you have any friends that have the answer?
Answer:
<h2>x = 7 cm</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the given triangle:
P = (2x + 1) + (x + 2) + (3x - 9) and P = 36 cm.
Therefore we have the equation:
2x + 1 + x + 2 + 3x - 9 = 36 <em>combine like terms</em>
(2x + x + 3x) + (1 + 2 - 9) = 36
6x - 6 = 36 <em>add 6 to both sides</em>
6x = 42 <em>divide both sides by 6</em>
x = 7
