A theater production group is making frames to support wall-like props. Three-foot beams form right triangles with 10-foot beams

to allow them to stand, as shown in the image.


What is x, the angle at which the diagonal beam meets the 10-foot beam at the top of the frame?

16.7°

17.5°

72.5°

73.3°

The main lesson students and teachers should take away from this problem is the correct answer should be: who cares?  The group built their frames with a ruler and a saw, got an exact slope of 10/3 and the angle measures didn't matter one bit.  The best angles measures are the ones avoided.

But trig as taught is all about angles. Gotta find the angle. Here we have a right triangle and we're interested in the angle at the top of the frame, opposite side 3, adjacent side 10, so

\tan \theta = \dfrac{3}{10}

\theta = \arctan \dfrac{3}{10} \approx 16.7^\circ

A triangle has a perimeter of 10a + 3b + 12 and has sides of length 3a + 8 and 5a + b what is the length of the third side ?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

  2a +2b +4

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the three sides. If x represents the length of the third side, then ...

  (3a +8) +(5a +b) +x = (10a +3b +12)

Subtracting from the equation everything on the left side that is not x, we get ...

  x = (10a +3b +12) -(3a +8) -(5a +b)

  = a(10 -3 -5) +b(3 -1) +(12 -8)

  = 2a +2b +4

The length of the third side is 2a +2b +4.

Answer:

197 leis left over

Step-by-step explanation:

14 times 212 = 2968

2968/30 = 98.93

212 times 0.93 = 197

98 packages and 197 leis left over

Obtain the general solution of<br> y ln x ln y dx + dy = 0
oksano4ka [1.4K]
Dy/dx = -y inx iny

(y in x in y) dx + dy = 0

(y in x in y ) dx = - dy

(in x )dx =  - (1/ y in y) dy

you just need to integrate both sides

Hope this helps
