Answer: To solve such problems we need to know about Trigonometry.
Trigonometric functions
where perpendicular is the side of the triangle which is opposite to the angle, and the hypotenuse is the longest side of the triangle which is opposite to the 90° angle.
The value of x is 5√3.
Explanation: Given to us,
the base for the triangle, AB = 5 units,
Hypotenuse for the triangle, BC = 10 units,
∠B = 60°,
Solution
The question can be solved in two ways,
1. Using the Pythagoras theorem,
According to Pythagoras theorem,
substituting the values,
2. using the trigonometric function for ∠B,
for ∠B in ΔABC,
substituting the values,
we know that value of tan(60°) is √3,
Hence, the value of x is 5√3.
The workdone by the tension is; Positive
<h3>What is Tension force?</h3>
This question is from an elevator that is held by a single cable which is ascending but slowing down.
Now, this elevator is being acted upon by two vertical forces known as Tension which is upwards and the weight of the elevator acting downwards.
However, the direction of motion of the elevator is in the same direction as the tension in the cable. Thus, we can say that the work done by tension is positive.
