sin = opposite/hypotenuse

sin 40° = 12/x

Cross multiply.

0.64278760968x = 12

Divide both sides by sin 40°.

x = 18.7 (rounded to nearest tenth).

Answer: 18.7

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram opposite side = 12

hypotenuse side=X

θ= 40⁰

Sinθ= opposite/hypotenus

Sin40= 12/X

Cross multiply

Xsin40° = 12

Divide bothside by sin40°

X = 12/sin40°

x= 12/0.64279

X= 18.6686

X=18.7

Identify which triangles are congruent, and explain your answer.

Paha777 [63]

I believe that A and D would be the correct answer. Because both are 30,60,90 triangles and would be congruent. The other 2 triangles only have 1 angle and their side measures are at two different places meaning they cannot be congruent.

Dairy farmers are aware there is often a linear relationship between the age, in years, of a dairy cow and the amount of milk pr

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

B. A cow of 5 years is predicted to produce 5.5 more gallons per week.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $M(a) = 40.8-1.1\cdot a$ , where $a$ is the age of the dairy cow, measured in years, and $M(a)$ is the predicted milk production, measured in gallons per week.

Besides, we consider $a_{1}$ and $a_{2}$ , such that $a_{1}\ne a_{2}$ , we define the difference between predicted milk productions ( $\Delta M$ ) below:
