<em>x=45degrees</em></h3>
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
Let the angle to be solved be x
Let the supplement/compliment by y
x+y=90 Complimentary angles add up to 90 degrees.
x+3y=180 Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, the other angle is thrice the other compliment.
Evaluating this as a system:
x+y=90 Isolate x:
x=90−y Input into the other equation:
(90−y)+3y=180 Combine like terms, isolate y and its coefficients:
2y=90 Isolate y
y=45 Input into the first equation:
x+45=90 Isolate x:
x=45degrees
Answer:
a = 36
Step-by-step explanation:
We use pythagoras theorem here.
h = 60
p = 48
b = a
h² = p² + b²
60² = 48² + b²
3600 = 2304 + b²
b² = 3600 - 2304
b² = 1296
b = 36
You had the right idea using the Pythagorean theorem to solve for b.
Problem is for that triangle to work, the 5 and the 2√2 would have to switch places. The length of a leg cannot be larger than the length of the hypotenuse for it to truly be a right triangle.
Pythagorean theorem only works for the right triangles. Only way to "solve this problem would be to bring in complex numbers.
5² + b² = (2√2)²
25 + b² = 2²(√2)²
25 + b² = 4(2)
25 + b² = 8
b² = 8 - 25
b² = - 17
b = √-17
b= (√17i)
Then the problem with THIS is a measurement/distance cannot be negative... which goes against exactly what that complex number i is.
12.0 is the answer I think
