Answer:

178.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello There!

We can find the value of y using trigonometry

These are the trigonometric ratios

Remember SOHCAHTOA

Sine = Opposite over Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent over Hypotenuse

Tangent = Opposite over Adjacent

For the angle that has a measure of 27 degrees

we are given its adjacent angle and we need to find its opposite angle (y)

Adjacent and Opposite sides corresponds with the trigonometric ratio Tangent so we are going to use the trigonometric ratio tan to solve for y

Now we set up an equation (remember tangent = opposite over adjacent)

tan(27)=\frac{y}{350}

Now that we have created an equation we want to solve for y

What we want to do is isolate the variable using inverse operations

So basically we want to get rid of the 350

The opposite of division is multiplication so we multiply each side by 350 to get rid of it

tan(27)*350=350tan(27)\\\frac{y}{350} *350=y\\y=350tan(27)\\350tan(27)=178.3339073\\

so we can conclude that y = 178.3339073

finally we want to round to the nearest tenth and we get that the answer is 178.3

In the parallelogram below find why
Mkey [24]
Angle E=130degrees because those two are congruent. Therefore if you 180-130 you'll get the other angle in the triangle with 70degrees and y. 180-130=50degrees. Then add 50 and 70. 50+70=120degrees. A triangle is supposed to have 180 degrees inside.
180-120=60degrees.
Therefore y=60degrees

Five times the greatest of three consecutive even integers is equal to twice the sum of the other two integers plus 42. What are
Levart [38]
We can represent the three integers with x, x + 2, and x + 4
This shows that the integers ascend in two units at a time, which are consecutive even integers. Next we can just translate the equation straight through.

5(x+4)=2(x + x + 2 + 42)
5x + 20 = 2(2x + 44)
5x + 20 = 4x + 88
x = 68

The integers are 68, 70, and 72

A square prism and a cylinder have the same height. The area of the cross-section of the square prism is 314 square units, and t
Crank

Answer:

The volume of the square prism is  6.28 times the volume of the cylinder  

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the square prism = cross-section * height

Volume of the cylinder = cross-section * height

Dividing one volume by the other, and replacing with data:

Volume of the square prism / Volume of the cylinder = 314/50 = 6.28
