Long leg = 8 → opposite
short leg = 6 → adjacent
hypotenuse = ?
8² + 6² = c²
64 + 36 = c²
100 = c²
√100 = √c²
10 = c
sin ∠BOC = opposite / hypotenuse
sin ∠BOC = 8 / 10
sin ∠BOC = 0.80
tan ∠BOC = opposite / adjacent
tan ∠BOC = 8 / 6
tan ∠BOC = 1.33
The answer is 370 because you need to work it out.
Basically what I did was look at the first number, 12, and the answer to the equation and saw that 12 x 10 would be 120. And 360 + 10 would be 370.
It fits in perfectly.
12(370 - 360) = 120
370 - 360 = 10
12(10) = 120
So x = 370
Answer:
y = 1/7x + 88/7
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx +b
since it is perpendicular you have to get the negative reciprocal of the slope which is 1/7
y = 1/7x + b then you would plug in your points
12 = 1/7(-4) + b and then solve for b
12 = -4/7 + b
+ 4/7
88/7 = b
y = 1/7x + 88/7
The length of the guy's wire to the nearest foot is 89 feet.
The situation forms a right-angled triangle.
<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
- A right-angle triangle has one angle of 90 degrees.
- The sides can be found using the Pythagoras theorem.
- The angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.
The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of the wire.
let's use the smaller triangle to find the angle opposite the tower. Therefore,
tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent
tan ∅ = 5 / 2
∅ = tan⁻¹ 2.5
∅ = 68.1985905136
∅ = 68.20°
Therefore,
cos 68.20 = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 68.20 = 33 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 33 / cos 68.20
hypotenuse = 88.8606843161
Therefore,
length of wire ≈ 89 feet.
