Need help solving for x

Mathematics

Answer:

9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given triangle is a right angled triangle. To solve for any of the side length of such triangle, apply the trigonometry ratio formula which can easily be remembered as SOHCAHTOA.

SOH is Sin θ = opposite/hypothenuse,

CAH is Cos θ = Adjacent/hypotenuse

TOA is Tan θ = Opposite/adjacent

Thus, in the right triangle given, we have:

θ = 38°

Opposite side to the given angle = x

Hypotenuse = 15

We're going to use, sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin(38) = x/15

Multiply both sides by 15 to solve for x

15*sin(38) = x

15*0.616 = x

9.24 = x

<em>x ≈ 9.2 (to nearest tenth)</em>

Find the value of x.
Alik [6]

Answer:

x =15

Step-by-step explanation:

In \odot D, AB and AC are chords which are equidistant from the center of the circle.

\therefore Chord \: AB \cong Chord\: AC

\therefore m \widehat {AB} = m\widehat {AC}

(Equal chords intercept equal arcs)

\because m \widehat {AB} = (10x-23)\degree

\therefore m \widehat {AC} = (10x-23)\degree

m \widehat {AB} +m \widehat {AC} +106\degree = 360\degree

(Arc sum postulate of a circle)

(10x-23)\degree + (10x-23)\degree= 360\degree- 106\degree

2(10x-23)\degree = 254\degree

(10x-23)\degree = 127\degree

10x-23 = 127

10x = 127+23

10x = 150

x = \frac {150}{10}

x =15

The volume of the cylinder is 392 cm cubed work out the length
Alik [6]
Well if you are given the radius, you can solve for it. As the volume of a cylinder is area of the base which is a circle times it height.

B • h = Pi r ^2 • h = 392 cm^3.

H = 392/Pi r^2.

This is the height or length.
