Answer:
x = 8*root3
y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use tangent and cosine of 60° to find x and y, BUT THERE'S A SHORTCUT. You pointed out that its a 30°-60°-90° triangle. That is a special right triangle. Here's the shortcut:
the longest side (hypotenuse) is double the shortest side. We have an 8 on the shortest side, so the hypotenuse (longest side) is 16. This ALWAYS works for 30°-60°-90° triangles!
Another shortcut:
The longer leg is the shorter leg × root3.
This ALWAYS works on 30°-60°-90° triangles.
So on your triangle, the short side is 8, that means the longer leg is 8×root3.
ta-daaaa!
Answer:
5/24 or 20.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability that the 7th grader is a boy = number of boys/(total kids) = 4/(4+4) = 1/2
Probability that the 8th grader is a boy = 5/(5+7) = 5/12
Probability that both are boys = 1/2*(5/12) = 5/24 or 20.8%
