The 3 inside angles of a triangle need to equal 180 degrees.

This is a right triangle so the bottom left corner is 90 degrees.

This means the other two angles when added need to equal 180-90 = 90 degrees.

Now you have 8x + 7x = 90

Combine like terms:

15x = 90

Divide both sides by 15

X = 6

Now you have the value for x solve the two angles:

8x = 8(6) = 48

7x = 7(6) = 42

Top left = 48 degrees

Bottom right = 42 degrees

Answer:

The measure of the top-left angle in the triangle is 48 ° and the measure of the bottom-right angle is 42 °.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the sum of angles of triangle is 180 °.

And , It is the right triangle so, bottom left is 90 °.

8 x ° + 7 x ° + 90 ° = 180 °

15 x + 90 ° = 180 ° ..( combine like terms)

Subtract each side by 90°

15 x° + 90° - 90° = 180° - 90°

15 x° = 90 °

15 x° / 15 = 90 ° / 15 ..(Divide each side by 15°)

x° = 6 °.

Using value of x to finding the

The measure of the top left angle in the triangle is = 8 x° = 8 × 6 = 48 ° .
The measures of the bottom right angle is = 7 x ° = 7 × 6 = 42 ° .

To prepare for a bicycling event, you warm up each day at a moderate pace then you ride hard for a number of miles. one day you

Answer:

The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

One day you warm up for 15 minutes at a pace of 0.1 miles per 25 seconds.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, like in this case, the direct rule of three can be applied as follow:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then $x=\frac{c*b}{a}$

First, the simple rule of three can be applied in the following way: if 1 minute equals 60 seconds, 15 minutes equals how many seconds?

$seconds=\frac{15 minutes*60 seconds}{1 minute}$

seconds= 900

So now you can apply the following rule of three: if in 25 seconds you travel 0.1 miles, in 900 seconds how many miles do you travel?

$distance=\frac{900 seconds*0.1 miles }{25 seconds}$

distance= 3.6 miles

If you then ride hard for 12 miles, the total distance traveled will be the sum of both:

3.6 miles + 12 miles = 15.6 miles

The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.

Find the missing side or angle.

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

c = 6.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: B = 18° , C = 152°, and b = 4.

The missing side, c, can be determined by applying the sine rule which states that:

$\frac{b}{Sin B}$ = $\frac{c}{Sin C}$

$\frac{4}{Sin 18^{o} }$ = $\frac{c}{Sin 152^{o} }$

c = $\frac{4* Sin 152^{o} }{Sin 18^{o} }$

= $\frac{1.8779}{0.3090}$

= 6.0773

c = 6.1

Therefore, the value of the missing side, c, is 6.1

Write (8a-^3) -2/3 in simplest form

Anna71 [15]

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}$

Solution:

Given that,

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}$

We have to write in simplest form

Use the following law of exponent

$(a^m)^n = a^{mn}$

Using this, simplify the given expression

$(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^{ -3 \times \frac{-2}{3}}\\\\Simplifying\ we\ get\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = 8^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\We\ know\ that\ 8 = 2^3\\\\Therefore\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^3^{\frac{-2}{3}} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} =2^{-2} \times a^2\\\\(8a^{-3})^{\frac{-2}{3}} = \frac{a^2}{4}$
