How to master Euclidean geometry

Roman55 [17]

Euclidean geometry is all about shapes, lines, and angles and how they interact with each other. There is a lot of work that must be done in the beginning to learn the language of geometry. Once you have learned the basic postulates and the properties of all the shapes and lines, you can begin to use this information to solve geometry problems. Unfortunately, geometry takes time, but if you put in the effort, you can understand it.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\sin(60) = \frac{6 \sqrt{3} }{x} \\ x = \frac{6 \sqrt{3} }{ \sin(60) } = 12 \\ \tan(60) = \frac{6 \sqrt{3} }{y} \\ y = \frac{6 \sqrt{3} }{ \tan(60) } = 6$

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

0.3907

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 36% of adults questioned reported that their health was excellent.

Probability of good health = 0.36

Among 11 adults randomly selected from this area, only 3 reported that their health was excellent.

Now we are supposed to find the probability that when 11 adults are randomly selected, 3 or fewer are in excellent health.

i.e. $P(x\leq 3)=P(x=1)+{P(x=2)+P(x=3)$
