The original cost of the dress is $63.64

Step-by-step explanation:

After hitting the black Friday sales

  • Sarah bought her dress on sale for $35
  • She saved 45%

We need to find the original cost of the dress

The money that Sarah saved is the value of the discount on the dress

Assume that the price of the dress before the black Friday is 100%

∵ The price of the dress before the black Friday is 100%

∵ She saved 45% when she bought it the black Friday

∴ The price of the dress is decreased by 45%

∵ She bought the dress for $35 ⇒ (after discount)

Let use use the percentage method

→ Before discount  :  Discount  :  After discount

→        100%              :       45%     :      55% (100 - 45)

→         x                    :                    :      35

By using cross multiplication

∵ x × 55% = 35 × 100%

- Divide both sides by 55%

∴ x = 63.64

The original cost of the dress is $63.64

IMAGE 1: Find the value of the indicated trigonometric ratio cos α
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

28.07° ; 70.53° ; 53.13° ; 36.87°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using PYTHAGORAS RULE :

IMAGE 1:

value of cos α equals :

cos α = Adjacent / Hypotenus

cos α = 15 / 17

cos α = 0.88235

α = cos^-1 (0.88235)

α = 28.07°

IMAGE 2:

sin β = Opposite / Hypotenus

sin β = 14√2 / 21

sin β = 0.9428

β = sin^-1(0.9428)

β = 70.53°

IMAGE 3:

From trigonometry :

cot = 1 / tan

Tan = Opposite / Adjacent

Therefore, Cot = Adjacent / Opposite

cot γ = 3/4

cot γ = 0.75

γ = cot^-1 (0.75)

γ = 53.13°

IMAGE 4:

tan α = Opposite / Adjacent

tan α = 15 / 20

tan α = 0.75

α = tan^-1 (0.75)

α = 36.87°

What is the perimeter, in units, of polygon UVWXYZ? Enter your answer in the box.
nikitadnepr [17]

Given:

Consider the below figure attached with this question.

To find:

The perimeter of the polygon UVWXYZ.

Solution:

All sides and vertical and horizontal. So, we can easily find the side lengths of the given polygon by counting the boxes between two points.

From the figure it is clear that,

UV = 9 units

VW = 2 units

WX = 3 units

XY = 3 units

YZ = 6 units

ZU = 5 units

Now, perimeter is the sum of all the sides.

Perimeter=UV+VW+WX+XY+YZ+ZU

Perimeter=9+2+3+3+6+5

Perimeter=28

Therefore, the perimeter of UVWXYZ is 28 units.
