Answer: 10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between his estimated and actual distance is 15 - 13.5 = 1.5

The percentage of error is the difference divided by the actual value.

1.5÷15 = 0.10

Converted to a percentage, it is 10%

One fifth given medicine= 20 people
Placebo therefore= 80 people

Of the ones given medicine 70% (14 people) felt inprovement/ 30% did not (6 people)

Of the placebo group 80% felt improvement (64 people)/ 20% did not (16 people).

You are given that the person chosen felt no improvement so 6+16=22.
Of the 22 the chance of choosing someone from the placebo group is 16...

Why must the value of the sine ratio for an acute angle
jonny [76]

Answer:

Because the opposite side is shorter than the hypothenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

- An acute angle is an angle which is less than 90^{\circ}

- A right angle is an angle equal to 90^{\circ}

- An obtuse angle is an angle which is between 90^{\circ} and 180^{\circ}

In a right triangle, we have 1 right angle and 2 acute angles.

The sine of an angle in a right triangle is defined as:

sin \theta = \frac{opp.side}{hypothenuse} (1)

where

At the numerator we have the length of the side opposite to the angle

At the denominator we have the length of the hypothenuse

In a right triangle, the hypothenuse is the longest side of the triangle, so we have

opp.side < hypothenuse

Therefore, the ratio in the eq(1) is less than 1, therefore, the sine of the angle is less than 1. Also, the sine is positive, since the ratio in the equation is a positive number.
