Answer:  (C) 7.2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In relation to the 50° angle, 6 is adjacent and x is opposite.

tan\ \theta = \dfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\\\\\\tan\ 50=\dfrac{x}{6}\\\\6\ tan\ 50 = x\\\\7.15=x\rightarrow7.2\ \text{when rounded to the nearest tenth}\\

You would do

tan 50°= x/6
6 tan 50 = x
x= 7.15, but rounded would be 7.2
so the answer is C

School band sold 30 raffle tickets each ticket is labeled with a number 1 to 31 winning ticket will be drawn what is the probabi
Setler [38]

Answer:

0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we will use Set Theory Approach to Probability.

Let U = the Sample Space which consists of all possible tests.

Of course U = {1,2,3 .... ,30}

So, no elements in that.

U = n = 30

Let Q = the event bearing a multiple of 4 No winning ticket, and,

R = the case that has the No. 19 winning ticket

∴

Q  = { 4,  8, 12 , 16 , 20, 24 , 28} ,  and

R  = {19} , so that

Q ∩ R  = ϕ

P(Q ∩R ) = 0

As, n(Q) = 7 , n(R) = 1  , we have,

P (Q) = \frac{n (A)}{n(U)} = \frac{7}{30},  and P (R) = \frac{1}{30\\}

P (Q∪R) = P(Q ) + P(R) − P(A∩B) = \frac{7}{30} +  \frac{1}{30\\} − 0 = \frac{8\\}{30\\}

≅ 0.27 .

What is the length of the shortest altitude in a triangle, if the lengths of the sides are 24 cm, 25 cm, 7 cm?
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

The shortest altitude is 6.72 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the side lengths are

24 cm, 25 cm, 7 cm

The area of a triangle =

A = \sqrt{s \cdot (s-a)\cdot (s-b)\cdot (s-c)}

Where;

s = Half the perimeter = (24 + 25 +  7)/2 = 28

A = √((28×(28 - 24)×(28 - 25)×(28 - 7)) = 84 cm²

We note that 84/7 = 12

Therefore, the triangle is a right triangle with hypotenuse = 25, and legs, 24 and 7, the height of the triangle = 7

To find the shortest altitude, we utilize the formula for the area of the triangle A = 1/2 base × Altitude

Altitude  = A/(1/2 ×base)

Therefore, the altitude is inversely proportional to the base, and to reduce the altitude, we increase the base as follows;

We set the base to 25 cm to get;

Area of the triangle A =  1/2 × base × Altitude

84 = 1/2 × 25 × Altitude

Altitude = 84/(1/2 × 25) = 6.72 cm

The shortest altitude = 6.72 cm.

The expression for the distance from the 1st base to the 3rd base in terms of side length will be c=x√2

Given that the softball diamond is square in shape.

Let the side of the square i.e. distance between consecutive bases is x

The distance from the 1st base to the 3rd base creates the hypotenuse of a right triangle, where each side is equal to x i.e. x is the side length of the square formed by the baseball diamond.  

Using the Pythagorean theorem we have:

x² +x²= c²,

where c is the distance from the 1st base to the 3rd base.

Combining similar terms gives us

2x²=c²

Taking the square root of both sides we have

√2x²= √c²

⇒x√2=c

⇒c=x√2

This is the expression for the distance from the 1st base to the 3rd base in terms of side length.

Therefore the expression for the distance from the 1st base to the 3rd base in terms of side length will be c=x√2.

torisob [31]

Answer:

\tan 3x=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3} =\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } =tan\frac{\pi }{6} =tan (n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} )\\3x=n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} =\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{6} \\x=\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{18} \\where~x~is~an~integer.

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 3x=\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3} =\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } =tan\frac{\pi }{6} =tan (n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} )\\3x=n\pi +\frac{\pi }{6} =\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{6} \\x=\frac{(6n+1)\pi }{18} \\
