5) In the figure, triangle ABC is a right triangle at B. If CD = 15, find BC to the nearest tenth.
ycow [4]

Answer:

BC ≈ 4.0

Step-by-step explanation:

∠ DCA = 180° - 70° = 110° ( adjacent angles )

∠ DAC = 180° - (30 + 110)° ← sum of angles in triangle

∠ DAC = 180° - 140° = 40°

Using the Sine rule in Δ ACD to find common side AC

\frac{AC}{sin30} = \frac{15}{sin40} ( cross- multiply )

AC × sin40° = 15 × sin30° ( divide both sides by sin40° )

AC = \frac{15sin30}{sin40} ≈ 11.668

Using the cosine ratio in right triangle ABC

cos70° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{BC}{AC} = \frac{BC}{11.668} ( multiply both sides by 11.668 )

11.668 × cos70° = BC , then

BC ≈ 4.0 ( to the nearest tenth )

Don’t understand!! please help!! and show work!
goldenfox [79]

To find the correct answer, you have to simplify the equation.

Multiply -1/2 by everything in the parenthesis.

3/4x - 3x - 1/2 - 3x. Combine like terms.

-21/4x - 1/2. Turn -21/4x into a mixed number.

-5 1/4x - 1/2.

Your answer is D

there are 48 students in a school play. the ratio of boys to girls is 5:7. how many more girls than boys are in the school play?
Alex Ar [27]
We can use trial or error method here...

If we take 4 table, 4*5 = 20 and 4*7 = 28. 20+28 = 48.
20 : 28 = 5 : 7

So, there are 20 boys and 28 girls in a school play and there are 8 girls more than boys.

If you look over tables and try it out, only 4 table works for the given ratio.

What is the difference between the equations of a vertical and a horizontal line?
svp [43]

Answer:

A horizontal line is a line that is parallel to the x-axis of the coordinate plane and its equation is of the form y = b, where 'b' is constant, whereas, a vertical line is a line parallel to the y-axis and its equation is of the form x = b, where 'b' is constant.
