Answer:
x = 8*root3
y = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use tangent and cosine of 60° to find x and y, BUT THERE'S A SHORTCUT. You pointed out that its a 30°-60°-90° triangle. That is a special right triangle. Here's the shortcut:
the longest side (hypotenuse) is double the shortest side. We have an 8 on the shortest side, so the hypotenuse (longest side) is 16. This ALWAYS works for 30°-60°-90° triangles!
Another shortcut:
The longer leg is the shorter leg × root3.
This ALWAYS works on 30°-60°-90° triangles.
So on your triangle, the short side is 8, that means the longer leg is 8×root3.
ta-daaaa!
Answer:
138
Step-by-step explanation:
p(x) = 3x^4 + 2x^3 − 4x^2 + 21
Let x = 2
p(2) = 3*(2)^4 + 2*(2)^3 − 4*(2)^2 + 21
= 3*16+2*8-4*4+21
=48+16-16+21
= 69
This is per girl
There are 2 girls
2 * 69
138
$7, I think. I would not be too sure about it, though.
