2/5=4/10         7/10         3/5=6/10
4/10         7/10            6/10
4+6=10+7=17
17/10 which would turn into
one and seven tenths 1  7/10

What is the length x of the right triangle, rounded to the nearest<br> tenth?

Zarrin [17]

Answer:

109.5; B

Step-by-step explanation:

From your identity,

CosA = adjacent/ hypothenus

A represent an arbitrary angle between the sides in question.

In the question above, A=64

Hypothenus is the longest side and adjacent is the side just below the angle .

In the above case,

Hypothenus= X

adjacent =48

This means;

Cos64 = 48 /X

X = 48 / cos64; [ from cross multiplication and diving through by cos64]

X = 48 /0.4383 [ cos64 in radian = 0.4383]

= 109.51

= 109.5 to the nearest tenth.

Note( do your calculation of angle in radian or else, you won't get the answer)

Please help and also include an explanation so I know how you got the answer.

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 4x° + 8x° make a straight angle of 180°.

4x° + 8x° = 180°

12x° = 180°

12x = 180

x = 180/12 = 15

What 2 numbers multiply to be -14 and add to be -3

Svetach [21]

Xy = -14
x + y = -3

$xy = -14$
$\frac{xy}{x} = \frac{-14}{x}$
$y = \frac{-14}{x}$

$x + y = -3$
$x + \frac{-14}{x} = -3$
$\frac{x^{2}}{x} + \frac{-14}{x} = -3$
$\frac{x^{2} - 14}{x} = -3$
$x^{2} - 14 = -3x$
$x^{2} + 3x - 14 = 0$
$x = \frac{-(3) \± \sqrt{(3)^{2} - 4(1)(-14)}}{2(1)}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± \sqrt{9 + 56}}{2}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± \sqrt{65}}{2}$
$x = \frac{-3 \± 8.06}{2}$
$x = -1.5 \± 4.03$
$x = -1.5 + 4.03$ $or$ $x = -1.5 - 4.03$
$x = 2.53$ $or$ $x = -5.53$

  x + y = -3
2.53 + y = -3
- 2.53 - 2.53
  y = -5.53
  (x, y) = (2.53, -5.53)

x + y = -3
  -5.53 + y = -3
+ 5.53   + 5.53
  y = 2.53
  (x, y) = (-5.53, 2.53)

The two numbers that multiply to -14 and add up to -3 are -5.53 and 2.53.
