Recall the secant-tangent theorem, and you have
EA^2 = EC*CD
12^2 = 8*(x+10)
and now ED = EC+CD = 8+x+10
I suspect a typo somewhere in the murk above
The length of the hypotenuse = √(-3^2 +1^2) = √10
The point -3,1 tell us the length of y is 1 and the length of x is 3.
This would make opposite = 1 and adjacent = -3
Sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse = 1/√10 = √10/10
Cosθ = adjacent/hypotenuse = -3/√10 = - 3√10/10
Tanθ = opposite/adjacent = 1/-3 = -1/3
We know that:
The markup is the price added to the cost price of goods...
To find the markup, we must multiply the percent increase by the original price (before markup).
So:
10,000 x 5% (or 0.05) = ?
10,000 (You do not have to follow my way of multiplying, do what is comfortable for u)
x 5 (Ignore the decimals then we move it after we get the answer)
----------
50,000 move the decimal back 2 places so it is 500
The final answer is:
The markup amount is $500...
Answer:
B. the triangle in question is not a right triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
A 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle, so this one, with its longer longest side, is an obtuse triangle. It is not a right triangle.
___
3, 4, 5 is one of the first Pythagorean triples that you learn:
3² + 4² = 5²
These are the side lengths of the smallest right triangle with integer sides. It is worthwhile to remember. This triple is used not only in many math problems (such as this one), but also in real life when it is useful to lay out a right angle.
