Answer:
A. 3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the lenght of the side opposing the 30° angle, you need to use trigonometry, since it's a right-angled triangle. You have your 30° angle and you have the side beside : therefore, you can use the sine :
sin(30) x 3 = ?
0,5 x 3 = ?
1,5 = ?
1,5 = 3/2
Even though we don't know the number yet, we need to give it some kind of label
so that we can work with it. We can call it anything. I'd like to call it ' G '.
The number we're looking for is ' G '.
Half of it is 1/2 G
The sum of that and 6 is 1/2 G + 6
Ten times that is 10 (1/2 G + 6)
The question says that's 8.
So 10 (1/2 G + 6) = 8
Divide each side by 10 : 1/2 G + 6 = 0.8
Subtract 6 from each side: 1/2 G = - 5.2
Multiply each side by 2 : G = - 10.4
That seems like a weird answer. We should check it.
The number: -10.4
Half the number: - 5.2
The sum of half the number and 6: -5.2 + 6 = +0.8
Ten times that sum: 8
Yep ! By golly, sho nuff, dV-dT and E to the X !
Everything checks out, and the mystery number is - 10.4
Answer:
i believe it's .0386
Step-by-step explanation:
now, a line perpendicular to that one, will have a "negative reciprocal" slope, thus
Answer:
11.2
Step-by-step explanation:
a right triangle in an octagon is 1/2 a side length so to find the side length you must add .7 + .7. Next to find the perimeter of the octagon you must multiply the number of sides 8 by .14 which equals 11.2
