Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
w / h = u / HG
w = 8
h = 48
u = 5
lets use h / w = HG / u this is the same relationship but looks easier to me
48/8 = HG / 5
6 = HG / 5
6 * 5 = HG
30 = HG
not too tuff... when you set the relationship so it's easiest :)
and yes.. we cold have swapped the fractions and done it the other way and gotten the same answer.. but maybe with a bit more algebra.. and... avoid extra algebra ... that's where the mistakes can be made :P
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We can test each pair making each ratio into its simplest form.
For A 2/3 is already in its simplest form and 9/15=3/5. they are not equivalent.
For B, 5/8 is already in its simplest form and 15/21=5/7. they are not equivalent.
For C, 3/12=1/4, and 6/18=1/3. They are not equivalent.
For D, 4/10=2/5, and 12/30=2/5. They are equivalent.

Answer:
If you were solving the right triangle, it would be:
m∠A = 46°
m∠B = 44°
m∠C = 90°
AB = 32
BC ≈ 23
AC ≈ 24
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this right triangle, you can use trigonometric ratios to solve for the sides. To find the angle measures:
m∠A = 46° (given)
m∠B = x
m∠C = 90° (given)
180 - (46 + 90) = x
180 - 136 = x
44 = x
m∠B = 44°
To find the side measures, you can use tangent, sine, cosine, and the Pythagorean Theorem.
Recall that:
tangent = opposite side/adjacent side
sine = opposite side/hypotenuse
cosine = adjacent side/hypotenuse
So:
sin46 = BC/32
BC = 32 (sin46)
BC ≈ 23
tan46 = BC/AC
AC = BC/tan46
AC = (23.01887361...) (tan46)
AC ≈ 24
