Answer:
1/6 or 6/36
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the qualifications, there are six qualifying combinations out of the 36 combinations, which simplified, is 1 out of 6.
AE = AC = 4
m<CAB = 60 (equilateral triangle)
m<CAE = 90 (square)
m<BAE = 150 (= 60 + 90)
Triangle BAE is isosceles since AB = AE;
therefore, m<AEB = m<ABE.
m<AEB + m<ABE + m<BAE = 180
m<AEB + m< ABE + 150 = 180
m<AEB + m<AEB = 30
m<AEB = 15
In triangle ABE, we know AE = AB = 4;
we also know m<BAE = 150, and m<AEB = 15.
We can use the law of sines to find BE.
BE/(sin 150) = 4/(sin 15)
BE = (4 sin 150)/(sin 15)
BE = 7.727
Answer: 17/60
Step-by-step explanation:
Change all of the fractions to have a common denominator:
LCM of 10, 12, 15 is 60
You get 12/60, 25/60, and 54/60.
54/60 is what he had at the start, and so you can just subtract what he gave away
54/60-12/60=42/60
42/60-25/60=17/60
17 is a prime number so you cannot simplify the fraction
