72 divided by 6374 is equal to 0.0113
Hope it helps :)
Get a common denominator.
1/2 = 5/10
2/5 = 4/10
1/2 is greater
The formula is : A=6a^2
So lets say its a cube with edge lengths of 4
We first find out the area of each side by multiplying 4*4
They you multiple the answer of that, 16, by 6, for each of the sides.
A = 96 Units ^2
Answer:
A construction worker may use trigonometry when building the roof of a house. They may have to calculate the right angle that hypotenuse must sit at so water doesn't build up on the roof and cause leaks.
(this may be more of an architect's job, as they are the ones that design the houses)
or
An air traffic controller may use trigonometry to find how long it will take an airplane to land/how far the airplane is from the ground while it is in the sky (hypotenuse), based on its height from the ground (opposite) and the distance away from the runway it is (adjacent). They can also calculate the angle of elevation of the airplane from the tower they work in.
Answer:
a) 16.25 centimeters
b) 6.8 centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion for both of these problems.
a) Look at the longest side of each triangle. We can set up a fraction: 7.2/18. We can also set up a fraction for XZ and PR:
6.5/x
x represents the length you're trying to find.
Since the triangles are similar, we have an equation:
7.2/18=6.5/x
Cross multiply
16.25
XZ is 16.25 centimeters long.
b)
We can do same thing:
7.2/18=x/17
Cross multiply
6.8
QR is 6.8 centimeters long.
Hope this helps!
