Answer:

No, the smallest ratio between a hypotenuse and a leg is in the 45/45/90 special case. In this case, the ratio between the hypotenuse and either legs is

√2:1

If the leg is 10 inches long, the smallest the hypotenuse can be is 10√2.

Answer

Elena must have substracted 1/2x from both sides of the equation.

Lin must have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2

Explanation

The equation given is

\frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5

For Elena to have arrived at

3=\frac{7}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+5

Then Elena must have substracted 1/2x from both sides of the equation.

That is;

\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5 \\ \text{Substracting }\frac{1}{2}x\text{ from both sides of the equation will give Elena first step} \\ \frac{1}{2}x+3-\frac{1}{2}x=\frac{7}{2}x+5-\frac{1}{2}x \\ 3=\frac{7}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}x+5 \end{gathered}

For Lin to have arrived at

x+6=7x+10

It shows Lin must have multiplied both sides of the equation by 2

That is;

\begin{gathered} \frac{1}{2}x+3=\frac{7}{2}x+5 \\ \text{Multiply both sides of the equation by the lowest common mutiple } \\ \text{of the denominator which is 2.} \\ \frac{1}{2}x(2)+3(2)=\frac{7}{2}x(2)+5(2) \\ x+6=7x+10 \end{gathered}

Answer:

Start at -150, then add 3(-5), then add 122.2. -150 + 3(-5) + 122.2 = -45.3.

Can any one help me with this problem
katrin [286]

Answer:

37.74 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle and its opposite side are known

Sin (of the angle)= opposite/ hypotenuse

The hypotenuse is equal to the length of the ladder, therefore solve the hypotenuse

Sin (32)= 20/ hypotenuse

hypotenuse= 20/ Sin (32)

Sin (32)=0.5299

hypotenuse= 20/ 0.5299

37.74 ft

Hopefully this helps :)
