Answer:

Short leg = 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypotenuse = 2x

short leg = x

long leg = x√3

Hypotenuse = 2x=12

x = 12/2

x=6

short leg = x = 6

Two trains are traveling towards each other at a constant speed. The trains are currently 714 miles from each other. The speeds

shutvik [7]

55mph.

you can solve it using the equation distance=speed x time

your total distance is 714, and you have 2 trains, one traveling some speed, x, and one traveling x+8, both traveling for 7 hours.
your equation would look like this
$714 = x(7) + (x+8)(7)$
and you can then solve for x, which would be 47. this is the speed of the slower train, but 47+8=55 with give you the speed of the faster train.

38. What is the surface area of a conical grain storage tank that has a height of 62 meters and a diameter of 24 meters? Round t

svetoff [14.1K]

1. The surface area of a cone S is S= $\pi r^{2}+ \pi rl$ , where r is the radius of the base and l is the slant height.

2. The slant height l is found as follows:

$l^{2}= OC^{2}+ OB^{2}$
$l^{2}= 12^{2}+ 62^{2}=144+3844=3988$

$l= \sqrt{3988}=63.15$

3.

$A=\pi r^{2}+ \pi rl=3.14(12)^{2}+3.14*12*63.15
$
$= 452.16+2379.492 =2831.652 ( m^{2} )$

$= 452.16+2379.492 =2831.652 ( m^{2} )$

What is the exact value of tan 30° ? Enter your answer, as a simplified fraction, in the box.

Romashka [77]

Hmmm if you don't have a Unit Circle, this is a good time to get one, many you can find online. Anyhow, check your unit circle for cos(30°) and sin(30°).

$\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{sin(\theta)}{cos(\theta)}\qquad \qquad tan(30^o)=\cfrac{sin(30^o)}{cos(30^o)}
\\\\\\
tan(30^o)=\cfrac{\quad \frac{1}{2}\quad }{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\implies tan(30^o)=\cfrac{1}{2}\cdot \cfrac{2}{\sqrt{3}}\implies tan(30^o)=\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{and now if we rationalize the denominator}}{\cfrac{1}{\sqrt{3}}\cdot \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{(\sqrt{3})^2}\implies \cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{3}}$
