The image for this is attached for reference. This problem can be used by the Pythagorean equation. To make solving convenient, let us see only one part of the tent. Hence, one side is half of the tend width which is 16/2ft. Height is 12 ft. The unknown side is the hypotenuse. The answer is:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle sum property of triangle: Sum of all the angles of a triangle is 180
Alternate interior angles: When two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, the pair of angles on the inner side of each of these lines but on the opposite side of the transversal are called alternate interior angles
In ΔABC,
∠1 + 90 + 38 = 180 {angle sum property of triangle}
∠1 + 128 = 180
∠1 = 180 - 128
AB // CD and AC is transversal.
{Alternate interior angles are equal}
In ΔACD,
∠2 + ∠3 + 63 = 180 {angle sum property of triangle}
∠2 + 38 +63 = 180
∠2 + 101 =180
∠2 = 180 - 101
2(x + 3) = x - 4
distribute
2x + 6 = x - 4
either subtract 6 from both sides or add 4. i will be subtracting 6.
2x = x - 10
subtract x from both sides
x = -10
Percents to a decimal is easier to understand just take the percent so say it is 35% the decimal form would be .35 or 5% .05, and for the percent to a fraction just take the percent such as 30/100 and make sure it is in the simplest form to solve so that would be 3/10.
