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 }.

Explain why 1.55 centimeters is a reasonable answer for the difference in the wingspans of the two butterflies
melamori03 [73]
The difference is referring to subtraction, so the question was most likely something like how much longer is this butterflies wings than this ones. so 4.55 might be one of the lengths and 3 might be the other, so 4.55 - 3 is 1.55.

A piece of copper tubing is in the shape of a hexagonal prism. The area of the base of the prism is 3 square centimeters. The vo
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer: 17 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a regular figure where the area of the base is B, and the height is H, the volume is calculated as:

V = B*H

Here we know that the base of the prism is B = 3 cm^2, and the volume of the prism is 51 cm^3

Then:

B = 3cm^2

V = 51cm^3

If we replace those in the equation above, we get:

51 cm^3 = (3cm^2)*H

Solving this for H gives:

(51 cm^3)/(3 cm^2) = H = 17 cm

The height of the tubing is 17 cm
