Answer:

1) 6 cm

2) 117°

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Draw a picture of the rhombus.  The distance between opposite sides is the height of the rhombus.  If we draw the height at the vertex, we get a right triangle.  Using trigonometry:

sin 30° = h / 12

h = 12 sin 30°

h = 6 cm

2) Draw a picture of the rectangle.

∠KML is the angle the diagonal makes with the shorter side ML.  This angle is 54°.  ∠NKM is the angle the diagonal makes with the shorter side NK.  ∠KML and ∠NKM are alternate interior angles, so m∠NKM = 54°.

The angle bisector of angle ∠NKM divides the angle into two equal parts and intersects the longer side NM at point P.  So m∠PKM = 27°.

KLMN is a rectangle, so it has right angles.  That means ∠KML and ∠KMN are complementary.  So m∠KMN = 36°.

We now know the measures of two angles of triangle KPM.  Since angles of a triangle add up to 180°, we can find the measure of the third angle:

m∠KPM + 36° + 27° = 180°

m∠KPM = 117°

How do you graph y=6x-3
diamong [38]

y=6x-3

put a point on (0,-3) this is your y intercept

go up 6 and over 1 this should land you at (1,0) do this again and your at  (2,6)

go back to the y intercept now go down 6 and over 1, this should land you (-1,-6)

continue to do this until you graph is filled
