Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the cosine ratio

cos30° = \frac{adjacent }{hypotenuse} = \frac{adj}{2\sqrt{3} }, so

\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} = \frac{adj}{2\sqrt{3} }

Multiply both sides by 2\sqrt{3}

adj = \frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} × 2\sqrt{3} = 3

Answer:

Choice A. 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle in question is a right triangle.

  • The length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite to the right angle) is given.
  • The measure of one of the acute angle is also given.

As a result, the length of both legs can be found directly using the sine function and the cosine function.

Let \text{Opposite} denotes the length of the side opposite to the 30^{\circ} acute angle, and \text{Adjacent} be the length of the side next to this 30^{\circ} acute angle.

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Opposite} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \sin{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{1}{2} \\&= \sqrt{3}\end{aligned}.

Similarly,

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Adjacent} &= \text{Hypotenuse} \times \cos{30^{\circ}}\\ &=2\sqrt{3}\times \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\&= 3\end{aligned}.

The longer leg in this case is the one adjacent to the 30^{\circ} acute angle. The answer will be 3.

There's a shortcut to the answer. Notice that \sin{30^{\circ}} < \cos{30^{\circ}}. The cosine of an acute angle is directly related to the adjacent leg. In other words, the leg adjacent to the 30^{\circ} angle will be the longer leg. There will be no need to find the length of the opposite leg.

Does this relationship \sin{\theta} < \cos{\theta} holds for all acute angles? (That is, 0^{\circ} < \theta?) It turns out that:

  • \sin{\theta} < \cos{\theta} if 0^{\circ} < \theta;
  • \sin{\theta} > \cos{\theta} if 45^{\circ} < \theta;
  • \sin{\theta} = \cos{\theta} if \theta = 45^{\circ}.

Answer:

Answer: 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It says 1 inch equals 5 feet. So, every inch is on the map is an extra 5 feet in real space. So if you think about it, all this is is a simple multiplication problem.

Here is the math:

8.5 * 5 = 42.5

Think about it, for every inch there is on the map there is an extra 5 feet in real space. There is 8 inches, so we need 5 extra feet for each of those 8 inches. So what we get for 1 inch is 5 feet, for 2 inches 10 feet, 3 inches 15 feet, etc etc until we reach 8 inches. For the 0.5 inches alone that would equal 2.5 feet in real life since 1 inch is 5 feet.

The number of views on an interesting video after it's uploaded is represented by the following table:
defon

Answer:

The model for V(t) ,the number of views, t ,months after it's uploaded, best fits the data is ,V(t)=50(6.25)^t

Step-by-step explanation:

Time (months)         Views

0                                  50

2                                  313

4                                  1950

6                                  12,210

8                                  76,300

10                                 476,800

(x_1,y_1)=(0,50)\\(x_2,y_2)=(2,313)\\(x_3,y_3)=(4,1950)

Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Slope = \frac{313-50}{2-0}

Slope =131.5

Slope = \frac{y_3-y_2}{x_3-x_2}

Slope = \frac{1950-313}{4-2}

Slope =818.5

Since the slope is not same . So, it is not a linear relationship

\frac{y_2}{y_1}=\frac{313}{50}=6.25\\\frac{y_3}{y_2}=\frac{1950}{313}=6.25

Since the ratio between the consecutive outputs is same so, it is exponential relationship.

Formula : y=ab^t

Where a is the initial value = 50

b = rate of change = 6.25

The model for V(t) ,the number of views, t ,months after it's uploaded, best fits the data

So,V(t)=50(6.25)^t
