Your triangle has acute angles X and Y, and right angle Z.
For an acute angle A in a right triangle:
The sine is the ratio of the opposite leg to the hypotenuse.
sin A = opp/hyp
The cosine is the ratio of the adjacent leg to the hypotenuse.
cos A = adj/opp
The hypotenuse of a right triangle is the side opposite the right angle. It is the longest side of a right triangle. There is only one hypotenuse in a triangle, so there is no confusion with the hypotenuse.
The two sides that form the right angle are called the legs. Each leg is opposite an acute angle. The legs may or may not be congruent to each other, but each leg is always shorter than the hypotenuse. Since there are two legs, we need to be able to distinguish them. If you take an acute angle as your angle of interest, the leg that is part of the angle is called the adjacent leg. The other leg is the opposite leg. Adjacent leg and opposite leg are relative terms. They depend on the acute angle you are considering.
For your triangle, if you look at angle X, then the adjacent leg is side XZ. The opposite leg for angle X is side YZ.
Using the ratios mentioned above for sine and cosine, you get:
sin X = opp/hyp = sqrt(119)/12
cos X = adj/hyp = 5/12
Answer:
3 <u>> </u>x
Step-by-step explanation:
(Sorry if im wrong)
Divide both sides by 6
18/6 <u>></u> 6x/6
3 <u>></u> x
Answer:
Each student gets 2 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
So you would divide 7 by 3, which you can't...so 6 divided by 3 is 2, and when you split the last one into thirds you can each have 1/3. Add the sections together, and each person gets 2 1/3
<span>l ≤ 12
2l + 2w < 30
the second and fourth option are saying she can make the length longer than twelve and the third option forgets to double the length and width so it is accurate. The first option is the right answer.</span>
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation: In order to identify the <em>y-intercept</em> of this equation, we want to get this equation into slope-intercept form which is more commonly known as y = mx + b form.
The problem is our equation doesn't match up quite so well with the formula y = mx + b. Our slope or <em>m</em> which is represented by the coefficient of the <em>x</em> <em>term</em> is clearly +4 but what is our y-intercept or b?
Well y = 4x can be thought of as y = 4x + 0 so you can see that our b or y-intercept equals 0.
