This is a simple Pythagorean Theorem problem. 7 is the hypotenuse so you would do c^2-a^2=b^2. In this case 7^2-2^2=b^2. 7^2 is 49 and 2^2 is 4 so you have 49-4=b^2. 49-4 is 45. The square root of 45 is 6.70. So x=6.70
Answer:
measure of angle p=
94
Step-by-step explanation:
ok 5 sided polygon= 540
so put all of those equal to 540
need to find x first
540=132+(4x-10)+(5x-11)+128+(4x+2)
simplify and combine like terms
x=23
now plug in for angle p
(4(23)+2)
94
Answer:
8.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright so since you know the length of the side opposite the 27 degree angle and you need to find the hypotenuse, you'll use sin (opposite/hypotenuse) . so you do sin 27= 4/x and then when you do these trigometric ratios something my geo teacher taught me is that if the variable is in the denominator then you have to do the length of the side you know /sin/cos/tan of whatever angle you know. so here you insert in your calculator 4/sin 27 (make sure ur calculator is in degree mode you can check this by doing sin 30 and seeing if it equals 1/2 and if it doesnt you need to search online on how you do degree mode) and you get 8.8108. which rounds to 8.8
You can use the Law of Sines for this problem, but what makes it tough at first glance is that they put a step in before you can use it directly. That first step is to get m∠C. When solving a triangle, always get the third angle if you know the other two so that you can use the Law of Sines (or Law of Cosines) more directly.
The sum of the angles of any triangles is 180°. We know the measures of the two other angles. So we subtract them from 180° to find that third angle.
180° - 76° - 66° = 38°
Now we can use the proportion from the picture. Angle B measures 76°, side b is our unknown, Angle C measures 38°, and side c measures 3 units.
sin 76° sin 38°
----------- = -----------
b 3
Cross multiply to find b (the side). We carry out five places in these calculations to get more accuracy.
3 * sin 76° = b * sin 38°
b = 3 * sin 76° 3 * 0.56611 1.69832
--------------- = --------------- = ---------------- = 5.73044
sin 38° 0.29636 0.29636
To the nearest tenth, b - 5.7 units.
