Answer:

7.96 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Length of ramp L = 8 ft

Angle with the horizontal (ground) = 6°

Applying trigonometry;

With the length of ramp as the hypothenuse,

The horizontal distance d as the adjacent to angle 6°

Since we want to calculate the adjacent and we have the hypothenuse and the angle. We can apply cosine;

Cosθ = adjacent/hypothenuse

Substituting the values;

Cos6° = d/8

d = 8cos6°

d = 7.956175162946

d = 7.96 ft

The building is 7.96ft away from the entry point of the ramp.

Triangle ABC had a perimeter 18 cm
Alex

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the main condition the lengths of the sides of a right-angled triangle have to fulfill ?

Pythagoras !

c² = a² + b²

c is the Hypotenuse (the baseline opposite of the 90 degree angle), a and b are the so-called legs (the sides enclosing the 90 degree angle).

only if there is a combination of the sides, for which the Pythagoras equation is true, do we have a right-angled triangle. otherwise not.

we also know CA = 18 - 7 - 3 = 8 cm

so, let's try

8² = 7² + 3²

64 = 49 + 9 = 58 wrong

7² = 8² + 3²

49 = 64 + 9 = 73 wrong

3² = 8² + 7²

9 = 64 + 49 = 113 wrong

so, there is no combination, where the Pythagoras equation is true, so it is NOT a right-angled triangle.

Kenji is decorating papers with a total of 15 heart stickers and 12 star stickers for the child he is babysitting. If he wants t
Marina CMI [18]

Answer: The greatest number of pages Kenji can decorate = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total heart stickers = 15

Total star stickers =12

If all the papers identical, with the same combination of heart and star stickers and no stickers left over.

Then the greatest number of pages Kenji can decorate = GCD(15,12)  [GCD=greatest common divisor]

Since 15 = 3 x 5

12=2 x 2 x 3

GCD(15,12) =3

Hence, the greatest number of pages Kenji can decorate = 3
