First of all, just to avoid being snookered by a trick question, we should verify that these are really right triangles:
7² + 24² really is 25² , and 8² + 15² really is 17² , so we're OK there.
In the first one:
sin(one acute angle) = 7/25 = 0.28
the angle = sin⁻¹ (0.28) = 16.26°
the other acute angle = (90° - 16.26°) = 73.74°
In the second one:
sin(one acute angle) = 8/17 = 0.4706...
the angle = sin⁻¹ (0.4706...) = 28.07°
the other acute angle = (90° - 28.07°) = 61.93°
I'm sorry, but just now, I don't know how to do the
third triangle in the question.
Answer:
6 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since they've given use the area of the triangle, we can use the area formula to find the base of the triangle.
The formula to find the area of a triangle is:
a= 1/2hb
h = height
b= base
We know:
a=24
h=8
You can convert 2/3 into a fraction that makes adding a lot easier.
Since 3 times 2 is equal to 6, you can multiply the numerator and denominator of 2/3 by 2 to get 4/6.
From there, you add 4/6 + 5/6 to get 9/6.
Since both 9 and 6 are divisible by 3, you can simplify the fraction to 3/2.
Your final answer would be 3/2
Which can also be formatted as 1 1/2 or 1.5
Answer:
4.24
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
Because the angle with measure 82 and angle 1 are corresponding angles, their angles measure must be equal, and therefore angle 1 has measure of 82 as well. Since angles 1 and 2 are a linear pair, they must be supplementary, and angle 2 is therefore 180-82=98 degrees. Hope this helps!
