Step-by-step explanation:

30°, 60°, 90° triangle theorem states that:

Lengths of the side opposite to 60° angle is equal to root 3 upon two times of the length of hypotenuse and side opposite to 30° angle is equal to 1 upon two times of the length of hypotenuse.

Mathematically it can be expressed as:

$Length \: of \: sides \: opposite \: to \: 60 \degree \: \\ angle \\ = \frac{ \sqrt{3} }{ {2} } \times length \: of \: hypotenuse.\\\\Length \: of \: sides \: opposite \: to \: 30 \degree \: \\ angle \\ = \frac{1}{ {2} } \times length \: of \: hypotenuse.\\\\$

Identify the sequence as arithmetic, geometric, or neither. Explain your answer.

This sequence (1.6, 0.8, 0.4, 0.2,... ) is geometric.
We have formula for any member of geometric sequence: $a_{n} = a_{1}* q^{n-1}$ If a1=1.6 then: $0.8=1.6*q, 0.4=1.6* q^{2}, 0.2=1.6* q^{3}$ The solution for all these equations is: q=0.5. We have: a1=1.6, q=0.5 and this is geometric sequence.

Jasmine is traveling at 45 miles per hour. At that same rate, how long will it take her to travel 135 miles?

mina [271]

$45\ miles\ per\ 1\ hour\\
135\ miles\ per\ x\ hours\\\\
making\ proportion:\\
45-1\\
135-x\\\\
cross\ multiplication\\\\
45x=135\ \ \ | divide\ by\ 45\\\\
x=3\\\\
It\ will\ take\ 3\ hours.$
