Answer:

2/3 ÷ 1/12 = 8/1 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal value of the second fraction. The first sub-step is to find the reciprocal (reverse the numerator and denominator, reciprocal of 1/12 is 12/1) of the second fraction. Next, multiply the two numerators. Then, multiply the two denominators. In the next intermediate step cancelling by a common factor of 3 gives 8/1.

Answer: 6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

You would first start by making 1 3/5 into a mixed fraction. Getting 8/5. Then you’d divide that by 3/4 and get 6/5. Which then you’d multiply it by 5 and get 6 hours.

Given: KL ║ NM , LM = 45, m∠M = 50° KN ⊥ NM , NL ⊥ LM Find: KN and KL

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

$KL=45\tan 50^{\circ}\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 41.08\\ \\KN=45\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 34.47$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

KL ║ NM ,

LM = 45

m∠M = 50°

KN ⊥ NM

NL ⊥ LM

Find: KN and KL

1. Consider triangle NLM. This is a right triangle, because NL ⊥ LM. In this triangle,

LM = 45

m∠M = 50°

So,

$\tan \angle M=\dfrac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}=\dfrac{NL}{LM}=\dfrac{NL}{45}\\ \\NL=45\tan 50^{\circ}$

Also

$m\angle LNM=90^{\circ}-50^{\circ}=40^{\circ}$ (angles LNM and M are complementary).

2. Consider triangle NKL. This is a right triangle, because KN ⊥ NM . In this triangle,

$NL=45\tan 50^{\circ}$

$m\angle KLN=m\angle LNM=40^{\circ}$ (alternate interior angles)

$m\angle KNL=90^{\circ}-40^{\circ}=50^{\circ}$ (angles KNL and KLN are complementary).

So,

$\sin \angle KNL=\dfrac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}=\dfrac{KL}{LN}=\dfrac{KL}{45\tan 50^{\circ}}\\ \\KL=45\tan 50^{\circ}\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 41.08$

and

$\cos \angle KNL=\dfrac{\text{adjacent leg}}{\text{hypotenuse}}=\dfrac{KN}{LN}=\dfrac{KN}{45\tan 50^{\circ}}\\ \\KN=45\tan 50^{\circ}\cos 50^{\circ}=45\sin 50^{\circ}\approx 34.47$
