Answer:

DE ≈ 16.1, ∠E ≈ 60.3°, ∠D ≈ 29.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

use pythagorean theorem:

DE² = 8² + 14² => DE = √8² + 14² ≈ 16.1

use inverse tangent function:

∠E =  tan^{-1}(14/8) ≈ 60.3°

∠D =  tan^{-1}(8/14) ≈ 29.7°

Answers:

  • side DE = 16.1 units
  • angle E = 60.3 degrees
  • angle D = 29.7 degrees

The "units" and "degrees" portions of the answers are likely to be left out.

===============================================

Explanation:

Since we have a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the hypotenuse DE

a^2+b^2 = c^2

c = sqrt(a^2+b^2)

c = sqrt(8^2+14^2)

c = 16.124515496597

c = 16.1 is the approximate length of side DE

----------------------------------

We'll use the tangent ratio to find angle E

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(E) = FD/FE

tan(E) = 14/8

E = arctan(14/8)

E = 60.2551187030578

E = 60.3 degrees

The notation arctan is the same as inverse tangent. You should have a \tan^{-1} button on your calculator to help compute the inverse tangent.

-------------------------------------

We could use the tangent ratio to solve for angle D, by noting that

tan(D) = 8/14

or we could use the idea that D+E = 90 which solves to D = 90-E

D = 90-E

D = 90-60.3

D = 29.7 degrees

Note how arctan(8/14) = 29.74488 which rounds to 29.7

Answer:

3 tiles will not fit together.

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of an Interior angle of a polygon = \frac{(n-2)\times 180}{n}

Here, n = number of sides of the polygon

Therefore, measure of the interior angles of a regular hexagon,

A = \frac{(6-2)\times 180}{6}

A = 120°

Similarly, interior angle of the regular pentagon,

B = \frac{(5-2)\times 180}{5}

B = 108°

Now m∠A + m∠B + m∠C = 360°

m∠C = 360° - (120° + 108°)

        = 132°

To fit the given three tiles perfectly, interior angle (∠D) of the third Octagonal tile should be 132°.

D = \frac{(8-2)\times 180}{8}

D = 135°

m∠C ≠ m∠D

Therefore, 3 tiles will not fit together.

Re-write the quadratic function below in Standard Form<br> y=-3 (x - 2)² – 7
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

y=-3x^2+12x-19

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The quadratic equation in standard form is equal to

y=ax^{2} +bx+c

we have

y=-3(x-2)^{2}-7

This is a quadratic equation in vertex form

Convert to standard form

y=-3(x^2-4x+4)-7

Apply distributive property

y=-3x^2+12x-12-7

Combine like terms

y=-3x^2+12x-19 ----> quadratic equation in standard form
