Answer:

x ≈ 18.52

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan51° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{x}{15}$

Multiply both sides by 15

15 × tan51° = x, thus

x ≈ 18.52 ( to 2 dec. places )

In a right –angled triangle, the length of hypotenuse and shorter sides are 13 cm and 5 cm respectively. Work out the other side

stellarik [79]

Answer: The other side is 12 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

$a^{2} + b^{2} = c^{2}$
$a^{2} + (5)^{2} = (13)^{2}$
$a^{2} + 25 = 169$
$a^{2} = 144$
$a = \sqrt{144}$
$a = 12$

RSB [31]

If you were to have (3,2) and find the reflection of the y axis, it would turn y into a negative, making it (3,-2).
