Answer: =50 

Explanation: An unknown leg of a right triangle can be found using the Pythagorean theorem. Pythagorean theorem: a²+b²=c²

a²=14²+48²

a²=14²=14*14=196

a²=48²=48*48=2304

a²=196+2304

a²=196+2304=2500

a²=2500

a²=(25*100)=2500

a=5*10=50

A=50

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

14^2+48^2=x^2
196+2304=x^2
2500=x^2
x=50
hypotenuse equals 50

Solve for the variable using Trig ratio.

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

x = 3.86

a = 5.86

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangles attached,

By applying cosine rule in triangle 1,

cos(50)° = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

cos(50)° = $\frac{x}{6}$

x = 6cos(50)°

x = 3.86

Now we apply sine rule in the second triangle,

sin(23)° = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

sin(23)° = $\frac{a}{15}$

a = 15sin(23)°

a = 5.86

Two trains 500 miles apart accidentally are on the same track heading toward each other. The passenger train is traveling 80 mph

Natalka [10]

Answer:

2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Their combined speed (speed of closure) is 80 mph + 40 mph = 120 mph.

120 mi/h = 120 mi/(60 min) = 2 mi/min

The distance between the trains at the 1-minute mark is ...

(1 min) · (2 mi/min) = 2 mi

They were warned when two miles apart.

Question in attachment

Damm [24]

Answer:

a) scale factor = 1.5

b) d length is 7.5

c) Area scale factor is 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given QR =6

And ST =9

Length Scalar factor = enlarged length /previous length

=9/6

=1.5

Length Scalar factor =1.5

b)we know PS enlarged length of PQ

Length scale factor = PS/PQ

1.5 =PS/5

PS =5×1.5

PS =d =7.5

d length is 7.5

c)Formula :

Area scale factor = (length scale factor)2

=(1.5)2

=2.25

Area scale factor is 2.25
