If you divide 21/49 by 7 you get 3/7
First you need to multiply 11(8) = 88 then multiply 88(6) = 528 then 528/3 = 176. The answer is 176 inches
What are we trying to solve?
Sketch a right
triangle having adjacent side(A) is given as “3”, hypotenuse side (H) is “x”
and assigning angle “a” as the angle between A and H. Using Pythagorean theorem,
you will get “square root of x-squared minus 9” as the opposite side (O). Using
SOH CAH TOA function, and since secant is the reciprocal of cosine, sec(a) =
x/3. Thus, a = arcsec(x/3). The remaining expression tan(a) is Opposite side
over Adjacent side which is equal to “square root of x^2 - 9” over "3". Therefore, the
algebraic expression would be: tan(arcsec(x/3)) = “sqrt (x^2 -9)” /3. Different answers can be made depending on which side you consider the “3” and “x”.
