<span>exact value of sin 157.5 without using a calculator
sin(157.5)=sin(315/2)
Identity: sin(x/2)=±√[(1-cosx)/2]
select positive identity since 175 is in the 2nd quadrant where sin>0
sin(315/2)=√[(1-cos315)/2]

cos 315=cos45 in quadrant IV=√2/2
sin(315/2)=√[(1-√2/2)/2]=√[(2-√2)/4]=√(2-√2)/2
sin(157.5)=√(2-√2)/2
check using calculator:
sin157.5º≈0.382...
√(2-√2)/2≈0.382...</span>

Answer:

  2.48×10^13 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are about (365.25 days)(86400 seconds/day) = 31,557,600 seconds in one year. There are 1609.344 meters in one mile. So, the conversion can be written as ...

  (4.22 ly) (3×10^8 m/s) (3.15576×10^7 s/yr) / (1.609344×10^3 m/mi)

  = 4.22×3×3.15576/1.609344×10^(8+7-3) mi

  ≈ 24.8×10^12 mi

4.22 light years is about 2.48×10^13 miles

Drag and drop question I need help on ASAP
klasskru [66]

[] Similar

-> The triangles are similar because they were "mirrored" by the...

[] SSS

-> ... by the SSS similarity theorem, the sides are...

[] Proportional

-> ... the sides are proportional.

[] AB/AC

-> Since the sides are proportional, dividing corresponding sides will leave us with the same number

[] For the last two I think I am missing some information as I do not have any numbers and know where they got 85 from.

Have a nice day!

     I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Find the length of side x in the simplest radical form with a rational denominator.
krok68 [10]

Answer:

\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use either angle, but I'm going to use the one on the bottom. So, in order to find x, we need to use tangent. One side we know is the adjacent, and the side we don't know is the opposite, therefore we need tangent. Here's the equation:

tan(45)=\frac{x}{\sqrt{2}}

Obviously, we can't have a root in our denominator, so we need to get rid of it somehow. Here's how:

We multiply the denominator of the fraction by \sqrt{2}. \sqrt{2} multiplied by itself is simply 2. Try it! We also want to multiply the numerator by \sqrt{2}, but there isn't really a number we can use with that, so we'll just add it to the side. The equation you have now is:

tan(45)=\frac{x\sqrt{2} }{2}

Let's try to work this out now. Since the denominator is 2, we have to multiply both sides by it to find x.

\frac{x\sqrt{2} }{2*2} =x\sqrt{2}

tan(45)*2=2

We can plug 2 in for the x in the numerator now:

\frac{2\sqrt{2} }{2}

2 and 2 cancel out, so you get 1 in both the numerator and denominator. That's how we get our answer of x=\sqrt{2}

Also, because this is a 45-45-90 triangle, you don't really have to do all that work. If it's a 45-45-90 triangle, both legs should be the same length. :)

 In a​ company, 80​% of the workers are women. If 480 men work for the​ company, how many workers are there in​ all? Use pencil
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

The total workers are<u> 2400.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

In company 80% of the workers are women.

480 workers are men.

Now, to find the total workers in all.

<u><em>In first way:</em></u>

If women are 80%, then men would be 100-80 = 20%.

Let the total workers be x.

According to question:

20\%\ of \ x=480

⇒\frac{20}{100} \times x=480

⇒0.20\times x=480

⇒0.20x=480

Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:

⇒x=2400.

Total workers = 2400.

<em><u>Now, in second way</u></em>.

Again, let the total workers be  x.

According to question:

x-80\%\ of\ x=480

⇒x-\frac{80}{100}\times x=480

<em>On solving:</em>

⇒x-0.80x=480

⇒0.20x=480

<em>Dividing both sides by 0.20 we get:</em>

⇒x=2400.

<em>Total workers = 2400.</em>

Therefore, the total workers are <u>2400</u>.
