Answers:
x = 2√2 units
y = 2√6 units

Explanation:
The given diagram is a right-angled triangle. This means that the special trig functions can be applied.
These functions are as follows:
sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan θ = opposite / adjacent

For getting x and y, we can choose to either work with θ = 30 or θ = 60.
I will work with 30.

1- For x:
We have:
θ = 30
x is the opposite side to θ
4√2 is the hypotenuse
Therefore, we can apply the sine function as follows:
sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse
sin (30) = x / 4√2
x = sin (30) * 4√2
x = 2√2 units

2- For y:
We have:
θ = 30
x is the adjacent side to θ
4√2 is the hypotenuse
Therefore, we can apply the cosine function as follows:
cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos (30) = y / 4√2
y = cos (30) * 4√2
y = 2√6 units

Hope this helps :)

The value of x is \boxed{2\sqrt2 } and the value of y is \boxed{2\sqrt 6 }.

Further explanation:

The Pythagorean formula can be expressed as,

\boxed{{H^2} = {P^2} + {B^2}}.

Here, H represents the hypotenuse, P represents the perpendicular and B represents the base.

The formula for sin of angle a can be expressed as

\boxed{\sin a=\frac{P}{H}}

The formula for cos of angle a can be expressed as

\boxed{\cos a=\frac{B}{H}}

The formula for tan of angle a can be expressed as

\boxed{\tan a= \frac{P}{B}}

Explanation:

The value of y can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}\sin {60^ \circ }&=\frac{y}{{4\sqrt 2 }}\\\frac{{\sqrt3 }}{2}&=\frac{y}{{4\sqrt 2 }}\\\frac{{\sqrt3 }}{2} \times 4\sqrt 2&= y\\2\sqrt6\\ \end{aligned}

The value of x can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}\sin {30^ \circ }&= \frac{x}{{4\sqrt 2 }}\\\frac{1}{2}&= \frac{x}{{4\sqrt2 }}\\\frac{{4\sqrt2 }}{2}&= x\\2\sqrt2&= x\\\end{aligned}

The value of x is \boxed{2\sqrt2 } and the value of y is \boxed{2\sqrt 6 }.

a photograph is printed in the center of a piece of paper measuring 7 cm by (x + 8) cm. The photo measures 5 cm by (x +6) cm . T
Nadusha1986 [10]

The paper is 7 cm by (x + 8) cm.

A photo is 5 cm by (x + 6) cm, and is printed in the middle of the paper.

The area of the border/space around the photo is 50 cm².


To find the area of the border around the photo, you find the area of the paper and subtract it by the area of the photo.


The area of the paper:

A = 7 · (x + 8)


The area of the photo:

A = 5 · (x + 6)


Your equation to find the area of the border around the photo is:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = A

[area of paper - area of photo = area of border]


Since you know the area of the border, you can plug it in:

(7 · (x + 8)) - (5 · (x + 6)) = 50


Multiply the 7 into (x + 8), and multiply the 5 into (x + 6)

(7x + 56) - (5x + 30) = 50


Distribute/multiply the - to (5x + 30)

7x + 56 - 5x - 30 = 50


Combine like terms

2x + 26 = 50


Subtract 26 on both sides

2x = 24


Divide 2 on both sides


x = 12

Graph the inequality. -8 < y + 2x < 14
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Split it into 2 inequalities:

-8 < y + 2x

y + 2x < 14

Isolate y , subtract 2x from first and then from second

-8 -2x < y

y < 14 -2x

Rewrite it so it looks pretty?

y > -2x-8

y < -2x +14

You can use the calculator to graph each inequality.

The solution or the system is the area where the 2 solutions for each line overlap.

Answer:

Third graph C.

Step-by-step explanation:

3a + 11 > 5

Subtract 11 from both sides

3a > -6

Solve for a

a = -6/3

a > -2

so a would be all numbers greater than -2
