The triangle height is calculated by Pythagorean Theorem
height^2 = 15^2 - 9^^2
height^2 = 225 - 81
height^2 = 144
height = 12

We can calculate the value of Angle a
cosine (a) = adj / hyp = 9/15 = .6
arc cosine (a) = 53.13 degrees
angle b = 180 -90 -53.13
angle b = 36.87 degrees
tangent b = height / x
tangent 36.87 = 12 / x
x = 12 / .75
x = 16

Yes, it's just that "simple" LOL

The sum of three consecutive natural numbers is 450 find the numbers. The three numbers in increasing order are?
pantera1 [17]

Answer: 149,150,151

Step-by-step explanation:

1.st solution

Let the smallest number is x.

So next consecutive number is x+1

So the third consecutive number is x+2

So the sum of these three numbers is:

x+x+1+x+2=450

3x+3=450

3x=447

x=149  - first number

Second number is 149+1=150

Third number is 150+1=151

2-nd solution

The sum of 3 numbers in row is 450. It means that average  number is 450:3=150 - is the number which is in the middle

So the first one number is 150-1=149 and the third number is 150+1=151

Y = x² + 4x + 8<br> Sketch the graph of each function be sure to show your table of values
kherson [118]

Answer:

see attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to sketch the graph of

y =  {x}^{2}  + 4x + 8

We want to use tables so we choose some few points and plot.

When x=-6,

y=(-6)²+4(-6)+8=20

When x=-4,

y=(-4)²+4(-4)+8=8

When x=0,

y=(-2)²+4(-2)+8=4

When x=0,

y=(0)²+4(0)+8=8

When x=2,

y=(2)²+4(2)+8=20

The table and graph are shown in attachment.

Plot the points (0, −5) and (2, 4) on the coordinate plane. PLZ B RIGHT I AM FAILING IN THIS SUBJECT, rEWARD WILL BE BRAINLIEST
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Co-ordinate plane is a plane which is formed by a horizontal line called the x-axis and a vertical line which is called the y-axis.

The points on a co-ordinate plane is represented as:

(x,y)

where x represents the x-coordinate while y represents the y-coordinate.

To plot the points:

1) (0,-5)

For the point the x-coordinate=0 which means 0 on x-axis, and y-coordinate=-5 which means -5 units on y-axis.

2) (2,4)

For the point the x-coordinate=2 which means 2 units on x-axis, and y-coordinate=4 which means 4 units on y-axis.
