ANSWER

(C)38.16

EXPLANATION

The acute angle given in the right triangle is 27°.

The side length adjacent to the 27° angle is 34 units.

The side length we want to find is x units, which is the hypotenuse of the right triangle.

We use the cosine ratio to obtain:

\cos(27 \degree)  =  \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\cos(27 \degree)  =  \frac{34}{x}

Solve for x,

x  =  \frac{34}{\cos(27 \degree)}

x = 38.16

to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.  38.16

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Points to remember</u>

<u>Trigonometric ratios</u>

Sin θ  = Opposite side/Hypotenuse

Cos θ = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

Tan θ = Opposite side/Adjacent side

<u>To find the value of x</u>

From the figure we can see a right angled triangle. △JKL

Cos 27 = Adjacent side/Hypotenuse

 = KL/JL

 = 34/x

x = 34 / Cos 27

 = 34 / 0.891

 = 38.16

Therefore the correct answer is option C.  38.16

Write a function rule in terms of x and y for the line that contains the points (-7.4, -9.7) and ( 8.4, 6.1) .
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

y = x + -2.3

x = -y - 2.3 (but why would one need this?...)

Step-by-step explanation:

(6.1 - (-9.7))/(8.4 - (-7.4)) = 15.8/15.8 = 1

6.1 = 8.4 + b

b = -2.3

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is four times the length of one of the legs. The length of the other leg is 1500⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯√ fee
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is just playing with the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2 with a and b as legs and c as the hypotenuse.

Let's say a is equal to 1500 so then c is 4 times b

1500^2 + b^2 = (4b)^2  Now we just treat this like a normal algebraic expression

2,250,000 = 16b^2 - b^2

2,250,000 = 15b^2

150,000 = b^2

sqrt(150,000) = b

100sqrt(15) = b

You can check this now.

1500^2 + sqrt(150,000)^2 = c^2

sqrt(2,250,000 + 150,000) = c

sqrt(2,400,000) = c

400sqrt(15) = c Which fits the requirement of c = 4b
