How do you find a missing side with trigonometry

Mathematics
1 answer:
Nata [24]3 years ago
5 0
Example 1:  The angle is 42 deg and the length of the hypotenuse is 25.  The side of length x is opposite the 42 deg angle.  
                                opposite side
Thus, sin 42 deg = --------------------  =>  25 sin 42 deg = x = opp side
                                         25

                                                                25(0.669) = 16.7 units (answer)

Help me i can’t figure it out
Westkost [7]

Answer:

The answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the figure above is a right angled triangle we can use trigonometric ratios to find y

To find y we use tan

tan∅ = opposite/ adjacent

From the question

\frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} is the adjacent

The opposite is y

So we have

<h3>\tan(45)  =  \frac{y}{ \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} }</h3>

But

<h3>\tan(45)  = 1</h3>

That's

<h3>1 =  \frac{y}{ \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2} }</h3>

Cross multiply

We have the final answer as

<h2>y =  \frac{7 \sqrt{2} }{2}</h2>

Hope this helps you

Marissa is drawing coins from a bag that contains 5 pennies, 4 nickels, 5 m
kirza4 [7]

a. Calculate the sum of all the coins combined = 5 + 4 + 5 + 2 =16. Then put the nickels over the sum = 4/16 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

b. Add the new coins to the sum = 4/20 = 1/5 = 0.20 = 20%

c. She is more likely to draw a nickel in scenario A.

"write an equation in the form of f(x) = a*b^x with a base of 2" and passes through the point (4,4)
IgorLugansk [536]

<em>For this </em>f(x) = a*b^x <em>equation, we can first identify the components.</em>

f(x) is the output, or the y-coordinate.

a is the initial amount

b is the base

x is the input, or the x-coordinate.

<em>Next, we can identify known variables. </em>

We know for sure that the base is 2, since it is given in the problem.

We can also safely assume that since (4,4) is on the line, or the function, that it must be a solution of the equation.

Thus, (4,4) allows us to conclude that 4 is our x-coordinate and 4 is our y-coordinate.

<em>Plug in known values. </em>

f(x) = a*b^x

(4) = a*2^4

<em>Simplify the problem. </em>

(4) = 8a

<em>Divide by 8 on both sides to get a alone. </em>

a = 1/2

<em>Plug in all values again, with the known value, and without the x and the f(x) value. </em>

f(x) = \frac{1}{2} *2^x

How do you graph linear equation x+y=4
Sliva [168]

Answer:

See attached picture.

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph the linear equation, convert x+y=4 into y= -x+4. This means that y= mx+b is y=-x+4. So m = -1 and b =4.

Start with b by finding 4 on the y-axis. Plot a point. Then from this point move down 1 unit and 1 unit to the right to (1,3). Plot this point. Connect the points.
