Answer: Simplified Equation (10x-10)
Answer if 3=x is 20
Step-by-step explanation:
the original side lengths are 3x and (2x-5) so multiply both those by 2.
Now you have 6x and 4x-10.
Now combine those and you have 10x-10.
Then plug in 3 for x
The slope of the line would be 5x.
What is the question asking
In item# 1, we are only given with the height of the tree a=15 meters and we are asked to solve for the hypotenuse. Since we are not given with angle created between the rope the ground level we will assign it as ∠A = ∅
Solving for the length of the rope, we have
sin A = 15/Length of rope
Length of rope = 15 meters / sin A
In item#2, assuming that it is a right triangle we have:
8 ²= x²+3.5²
x=7.2
The smallest angle:
sin Z =3.5/8
Z = 25.95°
