HELP ASAP!!!! Given (x, y ) = (5, 15). Find tan θ.

1 answer:

8 0

tan θ is defined as the opposite/adjacent side to the angle in a triangle

in this case you have a triangle which forms from (0,0) to (5,0) and (5,15), with θ at (0,0)

-> your x coordinate is the adjacent side, and y the opposite

tan θ=opposite/adjacent=y/x=15/5=3

The product of eight and a number decreased by four is the same as eight plus five time the same number.

dedylja [7]

Answer:

The Answer is: The Number is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n = the number.

Eight times a number minus 4 equals 8 plus 5 times the number.

8n - 4 = 8 + 5n

3n = 12

n = 4, the number is 4.

Proof:

8(4) - 4 = 8 + 5(4)

32 - 4 = 8 + 20

28 = 28

Hope this helps! Have an Awesome Day!! :-)

\angle B=∠B=angle, B, equals ^\circ ∘ degrees Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

<B is 53.13degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Given

Opposite side= 4 (side facing <B)

Adjacent side = 3

Required

According to SOH CAH TOAS identity

tan theta = opp/adj

tan<B = 4/3

<B = arctan(4/3)

<B = arctan(1.3333)

<B = 53.13 degrees

Hence the angle <B is 53.13degrees based on the diagram

Taylor wants to paint his rectangular deck that has 42 feet long and 28 feet wide.

Savatey [412]

42 times 28 is how you will get the area. If you need perimeter then just do (42 times 2) plus (28 times 2) and there you go:)
