Answer:

16 in × 20 in

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Finding the % of the picture that can fit in 16×20 frame

Area of picture= length by width

                         =4*6=24 in²

Area of frame=Length by width

                      =16*20=320 in²

% of the picture in the frame will be

                        (24/320) * 100% =7.5%

     2. Finding the % of the picture that can fit in 18 × 24 frame

Area of picture=24 in²

Area of frame =Length by width

                       =18*24=432 in²

% of the picture in the frame will be;

                        (24/432)*100%=5.6%

The frame 16 by 20 in will keep 7.5% of the original picture

The frame 18 by 24 in will keep 5.6% of the original picture

Hence you should use the frame  of 16 by 20 in because it will keep more of the original picture.

A new episode of Charlie's favorite TV series will be aired 25 minutes after Charlie gets home from school. Which method should
Tresset [83]

Answer:

Charlie should use a stopwatch with minutes and seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

charlie should not count in his head as it is not accurate, he could count too fast or slow

Charlie should not look at that clock and the seconds will affect the 25 minutes, whether it be less or more

Charlie should not use an hourglass as he might flip it over too soon or quick and it's not very accurate

therefore using the stopwatch allows him to accurately and fairly keep track of the exact time

If 1-cosA = 1/2 , Then find the value of sinA.
zimovet [89]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

1- cosA = 1/2

or, CosA = 1 -1/2

Therefore ; CosA = 1/2 = b/h

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

P = root under h^2 - b^2

= root under (2)^2 - (1)^2

= root under 4 -1

= root 3

Again,

SinA = P/h

= root 3 / 2
