Construct parallelogram PQRSwith |PQ|=10cm, |ps|=8cm and<QPS = 120
1 answer:
Find sketch of parallelogram attached
Answer and explanation:
A parallelogram is a quadrilateral which is wider than it is long. A parallelogram has two sides parallel to the other. From the above, we are told the parallelogram PQRS has an angle QPS 120, with sides 10cm and 8cm, we use this to sketch the parallelogram
We find that angle QPS is 120 degrees hence angle RSP is 60 degrees since angle on straight line is 60 degrees from 180-120 in angle QPS and alternate angles are equal. Also opposite angles of a parallelogram are equal

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
AC = 10sin(40°)
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
The diagram representing the question is shown in the attached image
Since the given triangle is a right-angled triangle, we can apply the special trig functions
<u>These functions are as follows:</u>
sin(θ) = opposite / hypotenuse
cos(θ) = adjacent / hypotenuse
tan(θ) = opposite / adjacent
<u>Now, in the given diagram:</u>
θ = 40°
AC is the side opposite to θ
AB = 10 in is the hypotenuse
<u>Based on these givens</u>, we will use the sin(θ) function
<u>Therefore:</u>
