Jordan has a length of string that is 11 1\8 inches. If he cuts off a 2 1\2 inch piece, how long will the remaining string be?

1 answer:

7 0

First convert the 2 1/2 into eighths to be able to subtract the numbers. That becomes 2 4/8. Next set up the subtraction. 11 1/8 - 2 4/8. Note that 4/8 is bigger than 1/8, meaning we have to borrow 8/8 from 11 making our problem 10 9/8 - 2 4/8. Now we subtract as normal: 10 - 2 = 8; 9/8 - 4/8 = 5/8.
Final answer: 8 5/8 inches

$\bf cos(\theta)=\cfrac{3}{5}\cfrac{\leftarrow adjacent=a}{\leftarrow hypotenuse=c}
\\\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \pm\sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b\implies \pm\sqrt{5^2-3^2}=b
\\\\\\
\pm\sqrt{16}=b\implies \pm4=b$

so, plus or minus? well, the angle is in the 1st quadrant, and on that quadrant, both cosine and sine are positive, so 4 = b

$\bf tan(\theta)=\cfrac{opposite}{adjacent}\implies tan(\theta)=\cfrac{4}{3}$
