Answer:

y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>The triangle is divided further into 2 right triangles. So ignore the left one.</h3><h3>We know the angle of elevation is 30° and the hypotenuse is 8.</h3><h3>Looking at SOH CAH TOA we use the sine ratio in trigonometry because we have to find the side opposite to the angle given and we know the hypotenuse. </h3><h3>It is: sin 30 = y/8</h3><h3>y= 8 sin 30</h3><h3>y=4</h3>

State of the triangles in each pair are similar. If so, State how you know they are similar and complete the similarity statemen

leonid [27]

Answer:

Similar, SSS similarity, ΔLRS

Step-by-step explanation:

First, compare the ratios of the shortest sides:

LN / LS = 112 / 24 = 4⅔

And the longest sides:

LM / LR = 168 / 36 = 4⅔

And the middle:

MN / RS = 154 / 33 = 4⅔

The triangles' sides are proportional. Therefore, by SSS similarity, the triangles are similar.

Lucy makes 4/7 of a dress in 3/4. How many dresses does she make in one hour

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

3/7 of a dress in one hour

Step-by-step explanation:

(4/7)/(3/4)=x/(4/4)

(4/7)(4/3)=x/1

cross product

4/3*x=(4/7)(1)

4/3x=4/7

x=(4/7)/(4/3)

x=(4/7)(3/4)

x=3/7
