Answer:

a.  24\sqrt{3}  and 41.6

b.  52.1

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

Considering the left side triangle the blue dotted side is the side "opposite" to the angle given and the side 24 is the side that is "adjacent" to the angle given. The trigonometric ratio tan relates opposite to adjacent. Also, let the blue dotted side be y.

<u>Note:</u> the exact value of tan 60 is \sqrt{3}

Thus, we can write Tan(60)=\frac{y}{24}\\y=24*Tan(60)\\y=24*\sqrt{3} \\y=24\sqrt{3}

Approximate value (rounded to nearest tenth):  24\sqrt{3} =41.6

b.

Considering the triangle to the right, the side "opposite" to the angle given (53 degrees) is 41.6 (just found in part (a)) and the side "hypotenuse" (side opposite to 90 degree angle) is x. The trigonometric ratio sine relates opposite and hypotenuse.

Thus we can write and solve:

Sin(53)=\frac{41.6}{x}\\x=\frac{41.6}{Sin(53)}=52.1

Answer:

There are no solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

-3u=-3u-10

Add 3u to each side

-3u+3u=-3u+3u-10

0 = -10

This is never true so there are no solutions

HELP!!<br> can someone lease help me with #11 and #12
Fiesta28 [93]

11. The two angles are vertical angles, which mean they are equal to each other.

14x - 5 = 13x

Add 5 to both sides:

14x = 13x + 5

Subtract 13x from both sides:

x = 5

12.  The two angles are supplementary and when added together need to equal 180 degrees.

5x -20 + 3x = 180

Combine like terms:

8x -20 = 180

Add 20 to both sides:

8x = 200

Divide both sides by 8:

x = 200 /8

x = 25
