Answer:
x= -4
3/6 is 1/2 so -2/4 is equal to one half
;) you can do it.
By comparing the right triangle ABC with the triangle XYZ, we will see that:
<h3>
How to find the given segments?</h3>
So we know that the largest triangle is a dilation of scale factor 2 of the smaller one.
Also, remember that for right triangle we have the relation:
Tan(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus).
Now, the problem tells us that:
tan(x) = 5/2.5
For the angle x, the adjacent cathetus is XY, and the opposite cathetus is YZ.
Then we have:
YZ = 5
XY = 2.5
Knowing that the correspondent sides in the larger triangle will be 2 times the above ones, we can see that:
AC = 2*XY = 2*2.5 = 5
CB = 2*YZ = 2*5 = 10

This means that it sweeps out half of the circle so that the chord is actually going across the whole diameter of the circle. So if the chord is going across the diameter and has a length of 15 inches, then the radius of the circle should be 7.5 inches. read more at: https://www.ck12.org/trigonometry/Length-of-a-Chord/lesson/Length-of-a-Chord-TRIG/
Answer: 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the sides form s equalivent proportion. The hypotunse of the bigger triangle and the smaller triangles correspond with each other and the base of the smaller and larger triangle correspond so we use this proportion: hypo. of big triangle/ base of larger triangle= hypo of smaller triangle/ base of smaller triangle.
Let substitue: 52.5/x= 5/4: ( I Reduce 15/12 into 5/4).Cross multiply: 210=5x: Divide by 5 both sides. x=42. Then add the 42 and and the 12 to find the whole distance which is 54.
