Find the ratio a:b, if 2a−b/6 = b/3
1 answer:
If 2a−b/6 = b/3, then ratio a:b = 3 : 2
<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>Given that 2a−b/6 = b/3
We have to find the ratio of a:b
In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another
A ratio between two or more quantities is a way of measuring their sizes compared to each other
let us first solve the given expression
On cross multiplication we get,
6a - 3b = 6b
6a = 6b + 3b
6a = 9b
To convert a fraction to a ratio, first write down the numerator, or top number. Second, write a colon. Thirdly, write down the denominator, or bottom number
Therefore ratio a:b = 3 : 2

We have been given that and angle A is in quadrant 1. We are asked to find the exact value of
in simplest radical form.
We know that sine relates opposite side of right triangle with hypotenuse.
This means that opposite side is 12 units and hypotenuse is 13 units.
We know that cotangent relates adjacent side of right triangle with adjacent side.
Now we will find adjacent side using Pythagoras theorem as:
Let us take positive square root on both sides:
Therefore, adjacent side of angle A is 5 units.
Therefore, the exact value of cot A is .
These are the steps needed for this question hope this helps if there is any more questions do feel free to ask them
