Find the measure of each side of this triangles. Answer in exact form. ​ Find x and y

Mathematics

Firdavs [7]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 24/√3

4√3 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that this is a right triangle as well as two angles and a side.

Given that the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees, and a right angle is 90 degrees, we can say that the missing angle is equal to

(180-90-30)  = 60 degrees

Next, given sohcahtoa, we can say that

sin(30) = opposite/hypotenuse = y/x

cos(30) = adjacent/hypotenuse = 12/x

tan(30) = opposite/adjacent = y/12

We want to only have one variable per equation so we can solve for the variable, so we can use

cos(30) = 12/x and tan(30) = y/12

Starting with cos(30) = 12/x, we can multiply both sides by x to remove the denominator to get

cos(30) * x = 12, and divide both sides by cos(30) to isolate the x and get

x = 12/cos(30). Next, cos(30) = √3/2, so we have

x = 12/(√3/2)

x = (12/1) / (√3/2)

x = (12/1) * (2/√3)

x = 24/√3

For y, we have

tan(30) = y/12

multiply both sides by 12 to isolate the y and remove the denominator

tan(30) * 12  = y

√3/3 * 12 = y

√3 * 4 = y

4√3 = y

Answer:

\huge\boxed{Que \ es \ un \  variable \ ?\hookleftarrow}

✐ En matemáticas, una variable es un símbolo que funciona como marcador de posición para expresiones o cantidades que pueden variar o cambiar; se utiliza a menudo para representar el argumento de una función o un elemento arbitrario de un conjunto. Además de los números, las variables se utilizan comúnmente para representar vectores, matrices y funciones.

Find the length of base PQ in the trapezoid.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

PQ = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Theorem:  The length of the median of a trapezoid is the average of the base lengths.

\frac{PQ + 12}{2}  = 16

PQ + 12 = 32

PQ = 20

See how easy that is if you know the theorem!

parker correctly answered 70% of the questions on his math test. If he answered 35 questions correctly, how many questions were
Alexandra [31]

Let the total number of questions in the math test be defined by the variable x.

Now, we know that Parker correctly answered 35 questions. These 35 questions make 70% of the total number of questions on his math test.

The information we have above can be expressed as an equation given below:

70% of x=35

This can be rewritten as:

\frac{70}{100}x=35

Thus, to find the total number of questions we will have to isolate x.

\therefore x=\frac{35\times 100}{70}=50

Therefore, there were a total of 50 questions in the math test.
