A construction company is hired to build a wheelchair ramp for a restaurant. The ramp connects the handicap parking space (point

A) to the top of the porch of the restaurant (point B) that is 4.5 feet higher than the ground level below it (point C making a right triangle ABC. The building regulations require the ramp angle to be 8 degrees, meaning angle A must be 8 degrees.
1. On a sheet of paper, draw the right triangle of the ramp and label the sides and angle A. Indicate which side is 4.5 ft.
2. Use the right triangle trigonometry and calculate the length of the ramp (sid AB). Show your work on the paper.

Answer:

1. diagram in the attachment

2. AB = 32.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

2. from the diagram:

sin \theta = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\sin (8) = \frac{4.5}{AB} \\AB = \frac{4.5}{sin(8)} \\AB = \frac{4.5}{0.1392} \\AB = 32.33ft

Solve by completing the square? Could you please work it out step-by-step?
DaniilM [7]
16 n^2 -10n + 129 = 8n^2 -8

We collect the terms:
8n^2 -10n + 137 = 0

The steps for completing the square:

1) Move the "non X" (or "non N") term to the right:

8n^2 -10n  = -137

<span>2)<span> Divide the equation by the coefficient of N² which in this case is 8
n^2 -1.2n = </span></span><span><span>-17.125 </span>

3) Take the coefficient of "N"; divide it by 2; square it; add it to both sides of the equation.
-1.2 / 2 = -.6
-.6^2 = .36

</span>
n^2 -1.2n +.36 = <span>-17.125 +.36

Take the square root of both sides:</span>
(n-.6)*(n-.6) = sq root( <span> <span> <span> -16.765 </span> </span> </span> )
That's about as far as I can go.

Complete equation of the line through (1,4) and (2,2)
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

y = -2x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx + c

m is the gradient and c is the y intercept

m = (y 2 - y 1)  / (x 2 - x 1)  = (2-4) / ( 2-1) = -2

y= -2x + c

To find c, just sub one of the coordinates into the eqn:

By using the coordinates (1,4)

4 = -2(1) + c

c = 6

Therefore, the equation is y = -2x + 6
