Hi there!
We can use right-triangle trigonometry to solve.
We are given the HYPOTENUSE and ADJACENT sides, so we must use cosine in this instance.
cosθ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
We can plug in what is given:
cos(28) = A/17
Solve for 'A':
17cos(28) = <u>15.01 ft</u>
Converter will show you the formula and units(:
Answer: 2.1, I don't really know how to show a model for this, its just that when you multiply 3 and 7 you get 21, when you do 0.7 and 3, you just put the decimal place between the 2 and 1.
The pool is 40 since half of the other rectangle is 50 which the 2 halfs equal 100 and we already know the top side measurement which is 40 and 2 sides of 40 equal 80 and there’s 20 left so this concludes that’s the sides are 10 and square sides are congruent to each other which concludes that’s the AREA is 40
