Answer:

The drawing in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

An isosceles triangle, has two equal sides and two equal interior angles

In this problem, the floor of the entryway to an office building is in the shape of an isosceles triangle

step 1

Find the measure of the vertex angle

Remember that

The sum of the interior angles in any triangle must be equal to 180 degrees

so

Let

x ---> the measure of the vertex angle of triangle

x=180^o-2(40^o)=100^o

step 2

Find the length of the congruent sides of triangle

Applying the law of sines

Let

c ----> the length of one congruent side

\frac{a}{Sin(A)}=\frac{b}{Sin(B)}

we have

a=8\ m\\A=100^o\\B=40^o

substitute

\frac{8}{Sin(100^o)}=\frac{b}{Sin(40^o)}

solve for b

b=\frac{8}{Sin(100^o)}(Sin(40^o))

b=5.22\ m

step 2

Make a scale drawing of the entryway

The scale drawing is 1 cm : 2 cm

That means

1 cm in the drawing represent 2 cm in the actual

or

1 cm in the drawing represent 0.02 m in the actual

Find the dimensions in the drawing

For a=8 m

8\ m=8/0.02=400\ cm

For b=5.22 m

5.22\ m=5.22/0.02=261\ cm

step 3

Draw the triangle

see the attached figure

What is the probability of rolling a 5 or not rolling a 5 using a regular 6-sided number cube?
Ne4ueva [31]
There are 6 different sides you can land on with a dice. So the probability of rolling any one side is 1/6. The probability of NOT rolling a 5 is the same thing as rolling anything except a 5. So that probability will be 5/6.

In the year 2005, there were 100 rabbits in a particular region. Since then, the population has increased by 3.4% per year. Writ
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Your answer

Ok, lets do it systematically.

2005– 100 rabbits

3.4 % per year increasement.

So every year it increase 0.034 *100 = 3.4 per year

Total 2025-2005= 20 years

So expression is : 0.034*100*year(20)

Answer is : 3.4*20 = 68. So, in 2025, total rabbits will be 168
