Given that in a trianlgle the sides AB, BC, CA are in the ratio 3:4:6.

Let AB = 3k, BC = 4k and CA = 6k.

Then perimeter =3k+4k+6k = 13k

M, N, K are mid points of the sides.

By mid point theorem MN = 3k/2, NK = 4k/2 and KM = 6k/2

Hence perimeter of MNK = 13k/2 =5.2 (given)

Solve for k

k=2(5.2)/13 = 0.8

Hence sides are

AB = 3k = 3(0.8) = 2.4 in

BC = 4k= 3.2 in

CA = 4.8 in

Answer:

<u>TO FIND :-</u>

Length of all missing sides.

<u>FORMULAES TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING :-</u>

$\sin \theta = \frac{Side \: opposite \: to \: \theta}{Hypotenuse}$
$\cos \theta = \frac{Side \: adjacent \: to \: \theta}{Hypotenuse}$
$\tan \theta = \frac{Side \: opposite \: to \: \theta}{Side \: adjacent \: to \: \theta}$

<u>SOLUTION :-</u>

1) θ = 16°

Length of side opposite to θ = 7

Hypotenuse = x

$=> \sin 16 = \frac{7}{x}$

$=> \frac{7}{x} = 0.27563......$

$=> x = \frac{7}{0.27563....} = 25.39568.....$ ≈ 25.3

2) θ = 29°

Length of side opposite to θ = 6

Hypotenuse = x

$=> \sin 29 = \frac{6}{x}$

$=> \frac{6}{x} = 0.48480......$

$=> x = \frac{6}{0.48480....} = 12.37599.....$ ≈ 12.3

3) θ = 30°

Length of side opposite to θ = x

Hypotenuse = 11

$=> \sin 30 = \frac{x}{11}$

$=> \frac{x}{11} = 0.5$

$=> x = 0.5 \times 11 = 5.5$

4) θ = 43°

Length of side adjacent to θ = x

Hypotenuse = 12

$=> \cos 43 = \frac{x}{12}$

$=> \frac{x}{12} = 0.73135......$

$=> x = 12 \times 0.73135.... = 8.77624....$ ≈ 8.8

5) θ = 55°

Length of side adjacent to θ = x

Hypotenuse = 6

$=> \cos 55 = \frac{x}{6}$

$=> \frac{x}{6} = 0.57357......$

$=> x = 6 \times 0.57357.... = 3.44145....$ ≈ 3.4

6) θ = 73°

Length of side adjacent to θ = 8

Hypotenuse = x

$=> \cos 73 = \frac{8}{x}$

$=> \frac{8}{x} = 0.29237......$

$=> x = \frac{8}{0.29237.....} = 27.36242.....$ ≈ 27.3

7) θ = 69°

Length of side opposite to θ = 12

Length of side adjacent to θ = x

$=> \tan 69 = \frac{12}{x}$

$=> \frac{12}{x} = 2.60508......$

$=> x = \frac{12}{2.60508....} = 4.60636....$ ≈ 4.6

8) θ = 20°

Length of side opposite to θ = 11

Length of side adjacent to θ = x

$=> \tan 20 = \frac{11}{x}$

$=> \frac{11}{x} = 0.36397......$

$=> x = \frac{11}{0.36397....} =30.22225....$ ≈ 30.2

How many percent is 10 3/20?

Liula [17]

3/20 is the same as 15/100 or 15%
so 10×3/20 would be the same as 10×15% or 150%
Is that what you were asking?
