In right triangle DEF, ∠E is a right angle, m∠D=26∘, and DF=4.5.

Answer:
The measurement of EF is 1.98 units
Step-by-step explanation:
In Δ DEF
∵ m∠E = 90°
∴ FD is the hypotenuse of the triangle
∵ m∠D = 26°
∵ EF is opposite to angle D
- We can use the sine ratio to find it
∵ sin D = ⇒ (opposite side / hypotenuse)
∵ FD = 4.5 units
∴ sin(26) =
- Multiply both sides by 4.5
∴ 4.5 sin(26) = EF
∵ sin 26° ≈ 0.44
∴ 4.5(0.44) = EF
∴ 1.98 = EF
The measurement of EF is 1.98 units

Correct answer is: P(x<6) is 0.123 and it is usual.
Solution:-
Given that the time a person takes to decide which shoes to purchase follows normal distribution. Which has mean = 8.21 minutes and standard deviation 1.90
Then probability of individual takes less than 6 minutes is
P(X<6) =
=
= 0.1230
Typically we say an event with a probability less than 5% is unusual.
But here P(X<6) = 0.123 is greater than 5% hence this is usual.
