SOVing Problems With Right Triangles: Mastery Test

Mathematics
1 answer:
Serhud [2]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

13.86 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be represented by a right angled triangle with a hypotenuse of 16 feet and an angle of 60° between the hypotenuse side and the adjacent side.

The height of the pole is the side opposite to the angle 60°.

The trigonometric function states that for a right angled triangle:

sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse, cosθ = adjacent / hypotenuse, tanθ = opposite/ adjacent

To find the height of the flagpole, we use:

sin(60) = height / 16

height = 16 * sin(60)

height = 13.86 ft

The person with the incorrect reasoning for the height of the flagpole is  Charlie when he should have utilized the  sin function. Because he incorrectly selected the  function.

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph we get the points,

P (2,1)

Q (6,8)

Formula

d = √((x2-x1)² + (y2-y1)²)

d = √((6-2)² + (8-1)²)

d = √ (4² + 7²)

d = √ (16 + 49

d = √65           letter A

Answer:

? = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

?² = 5² + 12² = 25 + 144 = 169 ( take the square root of both sides )

? = \sqrt{169} = 13

Given g(x)=-x-3, solve for x when g (x) =6
LiRa [457]

Answer:

x = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given g(x) = - x - 3 and g(x) = 6, then equate, that is

- x - 3 = 6 ( add 3 to both sides )

- x = 9 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = - 9
