Sinθ=opposite side/hypotenuse
cosθ=adjacent side/hypotenuse
where both the sides are relative to theta.

in this case, 22 is your hypotenuse. theta (θ) is the angle you are examining. i've included a diagram for reference because the equations may format differently depending on which angle you choose as theta. 

using my diagram:

sinθ = o/h
sin 15 = o/22
sin 15(22) = o
o=5.69m/s

therefore the vertical component is about 5.69m/s.

cosθ=a/h
cos15 = a/22
cos15(22) = a
a = 21.25m/s

therefore, your horizontal component is about 21.25m/s.

The volume of the cylinder is 392 cm cubed work out the length
Alik [6]
Well if you are given the radius, you can solve for it. As the volume of a cylinder is area of the base which is a circle times it height.

B • h = Pi r ^2 • h = 392 cm^3.

H = 392/Pi r^2.

This is the height or length.

Solve for p.
Marat540 [252]
Hi there

3(p + q) = q
Solve for P

Use the distributive property
(3)(p) + (3)(q) = q
3p + 3q = q
3p = q-3q
3p = -2q
p = -2q/3

The answer is D

If y is directly proportional to x and y = 17.5 when x=21 find y when x=39
morpeh [17]

direct proportion y=kx , k is constant and k does not equal to 0.

17.5=k(21)

k=5/6

when x =39

y=5/6 ×39

y=32.5
