I don’t know how to label the sides as “opposite, adjacent, hypotenuse” so I’m not sure which formula to use

Step-by-step explanation:

The opposite side is the side of the triangle facing the given angle. The adjacent side is the side that the given angle and the right angle lies on. The hypotenuse side is the side facing the right angle. (The hypotenuse side usually looks like a slanted line. Do note that this is not true if your adjacent and hypotenuse side is not horizontal and vertical respectively on the plane of your paper.)

I'll explain a bit more below using the some of the questions.

Q1) The given angle here is 27°.

X is facing the given angle hence it is the opposite side.

The side that is 10 units long is the adjacent side as 27° and the right angle sits on it.

tanθ= opp/adj

tan27°= x/ 10

x= 10(tan 27°)

x= 5.1 units (nearest tenth)

Q3) x is the adjacent side, while the side that is 7 units long is the hypotenuse side.

cosθ= adj/hyp

cos39°= x/7

x= 7(cos39°)

x= 5.4 units (nearest tenth)

Q4) x is the hypotenuse and the opposite side is 8 units long.

sinθ= opp/hyp

sin46°= 8/x

x(sin46°)= 8

x= 8/ sin46°

x= 11.1 units (nearest tenth)

Q5) x is facing the given angle, hence it is the opposite side. The adjacent side is given here, which is 6 units long.

tanθ= opp/adj

tan23°= x/6

x= 6(tan 23°)

x= 2.5 units (nearest tenth)

Feel free to ask if you still do not understand any concepts :)

sinθ= opp/hyp

cosθ= adj/hyp

tanθ= opp/adj

A rectangular prism that has a length of 8 feet, width of 6 feet, and height of 12 feet. What is the volume of the prism? ft3
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The volume of the prism is 576 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of rectangular prism = 8 feet

Width of rectangular prism = 6 feet

Height of rectangular prism = 12 feet

Volume of rectangular prism = Length \times Breadth \times Height

Volume of rectangular prism =8 \times 6 \times 12

Volume of rectangular prism =576 feet^3

Hence the volume of the prism is 576 cubic feet

• Which of the following equations represents a line that is perpendicular to
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - 4x + 9 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 4

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

m_{perpendicular} = - \frac{1}{m} = - \frac{1}{-4} = \frac{1}{4}, hence

y = \frac{1}{4} x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line

To find c substitute (4, 5) into the partial equation

5 = 1 + c ⇒ c = 5 - 1 = 4

y = \frac{1}{4} x + 4 ← equation of perpendicular line → C
