Answer:

Width of T.V. is 21.94 inches Height is 39 inches and area is 855.66 square inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we buy an electronic item like T.V or Blue Ray aspect ratio is the term which is used by the salesmen or technicians. Aspect ratio is actually the ratio of length and breadth of the screen of a device or ration of width and height.

In this question aspect ratio of television is given as 16:9

This can be written as \frac{W}{H}=\frac{16}{9} or W=\frac{16}{9} H

Screen of the T.V. is 65 inch which is the diagonal length of the screen.

We know from pythagoras theorem in a right angle triangle

(diagonal)^{2}=(base)^2+(height)^2

(65)^2=(Base)^2+(height)^2

(65)^2= W^2+H^2 = (\frac{16}{9}H)^2+H^2

(65)= \sqrt{\frac{16}{9}H^2+H^2}\\ 65=H\sqrt{\frac{16}{9}+1}\\ 65=H\sqrt{\frac{25}{9}}\\ 65=\frac{5}{3}H\\ H=39 inches

Now height of the T.V.will be

\frac{W}{H}=\frac{16}{9} \\\\\frac{H}{W}=\frac{9}{16}\\ H=\frac{9}{16}W = (\frac{9}{16})39= 21.94 Inches

now area of the T.V.=W×H=39×21.94=855.66 square inch

Answer:

w = 56.65 in; h = 31.87 in; A =  1805 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

The aspect ratio of 16:9 tells us that w:h = 16:9 .

Let w = 16x and h = 9x.

The 65 in measurement is the diagonal length of the screen.

According to Pythagoras,

( 16x)² + (9x)² = 65²

256x² +  81x² = 4225     Combine like terms

           337x² = 4225     Divide each side by 337

                 x² = 12.54     Take the square root of each side

                  x = 3.541 in

                 w = 16 × 3.541

                 w = 56.65 in

                  h = 9 × 3.541

                  h = 31.87 in

                  A = wh

                  A = 56.65 × 31.87

                  A = 1805 in²

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

2.7 * 10 ^-5 / 9 * 10 ^-6

First divide the numbers

2.7 / 9 = .3

Then divide the exponents

10^-5 / 10 ^ -6

When we divide exponents we subtract

10^(-5 - -6) = 10 ^1

.3 * 10 ^1

But scientific notation has a number between 1 and less than 10

Move the decimal 1 place to the left, so we subtract 1 from the exponent

3 * 10 ^ (1-1)

3 * 10 ^0
