Jamaal has 20 models of cars and planes. He has 3 times as many cars as planes. What is the ratio of cars to total models? Mutiply its what 20X20X20
First you set up an equation using a variable:
x + 5x = 90° (complementary angles = 90°)
6x = 90
x = 15 (also the measure of the smaller angle)
now plug in x to find the larger angle:
5(15) = 75°
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given
, start by squaring both sides to work towards isolating
:

Recall
and
:

Isolate the radical:

Square both sides:

Expand using FOIL and
:

Move everything to one side to get a quadratic:

Solving using the quadratic formula:
A quadratic in
has real solutions
. In
, assign values:

Solving yields:

Only
works when plugged in the original equation. Therefore,
is extraneous and the only solution is
