Answer:
1 /4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Number of red = 7
Number of Blue = 7
Number of green = 14
Total number of balls = 28
Probability of picking a ball that is neither red nor green.
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
P(neither red nor green) = P(picking a blue ball) = 7 / 28 = 1/4
Since you need a little bit of trigonometry to solve this problem,
I'm pretty sure you've had a little bit of trigonometry in class before
you were assigned to solve this problem.
-- The shaded triangle comes from taking the equilateral triangle and
either folding it in half or cutting it in half.
-- The base that the new triangle is standing on is 1/2 the base of the
equilateral triangle, so it's 7 cm long.
-- The acute angle at the right end of the base is the same as it was in
the equilateral triangle . . . 60 degrees.
-- The tangent of 60 degrees is (opposite side)/(adjacent side) = x / 7 cm
tan(60) = x/7
-- Multiply each side of this little equation by 7 : 7 tan(60) = x
If you don't have the tangent of 60 degrees in your pocket, you can
find it with your calculator. Multiply it by 7, and Shazam, you know 'x' .
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Length of RU is 20 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
In ΔRSt and ΔRUT,
ST ≅ TU [Given]
RT ≅ RT [Reflexive property]
∠RTS ≅ ∠RTU [Both the angles are the right angles]
ΔRTS ≅ ΔRTU [By SAS property of congruence]
Therefore, RS ≅ RU [By CPCTC (corresponding parts of the congruent triangles are congruent]
8x = 6x + 5
8x - 6x = 5
2x = 5
x = 2.5
Length of RU = (6x + 5)
= 6(2.5) + 5
= 15 + 5
= 20
Length of RU is 20 units.
