Answer:

2\frac{3}{14} yards

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that 4 1/2 yards of cloth are needed to make a woman’s dress. 2 2/7 yards of cloth are needed to make a girl’s dress.

To find the yards of more cloth needed to make a woman’s dress than a girl’s dress, we will subtract cloth needed for girl's dress from the cloth needed for woman's dress.

4\frac{1}{2}-2\frac{2}{7}

Convert mixed fraction into improper fraction:

4\frac{1}{2}\Rightarrow \frac{4\times 2+1}{2}=\frac{8+1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}

2\frac{2}{7}\Rightarrow \frac{2\times 7+2}{7}=\frac{14+2}{7}=\frac{16}{7}

4\frac{1}{2}-2\frac{2}{7}=\frac{9}{2}-\frac{16}{7}

Make a common denominator:

\frac{9*7}{2*7}-\frac{16*2}{7*2}

\frac{63}{14}-\frac{32}{14}

\frac{63-32}{14}

\frac{31}{14}

2\frac{3}{14}

Therefore, 2\frac{3}{14} yards more cloth is needed to make a woman’s dress than a girl’s dress.

If sin(x) = squareroot 2 over 2 what is cos(x) and tan(x)
Bumek [7]

Answer:

cos(x) = square root 2 over 2; tan(x) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

was, before it was rationalized,

\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

Therefore,

sin(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }

The side opposite the reference angle measures 1, the hypotenuse measures square root 2.  That makes the reference angle a 45 degree angle.  From there we can determine that the side adjacent to the reference angle also has a measure of 1.  Therefore,

cos(x)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} }=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} and

since tangent is side opposite (1) over side adjacent (1),

tan(x) = 1

If VX = WZ = 40 cm and m∠ZVX = m∠XWZ = 22°, can ΔVZX and ΔWXZ be proven congruent by SAS? Why or why not?
Paul [167]

Answer: The ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are not congruent by SAS.

Explanation:

It is given that the VX = WZ = 40 cm and ∠ZVX = ∠XWZ = 22°.

Draw a figure as shown below,

According to the SAS rule of congruence, two triangles are congruent if two sides and their inclined angle is equal.

From the given figure it is easily noticed that in ΔVZX and ΔWXZ,

VX=WZ=40cm       (given)

\angle ZVX=\angle XWZ=22^{\circ}     (given)

XZ=XZ      (common side)

Since we have two sides and one angle is same. but we can not conclude that the ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are congruent by SAS, because the given angle is not the inclined angle of both equal sides.

Therefore, the  ΔVZX and ΔWXZ are not congruent by SAS.
