Answer:

x = 6/7 of a puzzle

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of puzzle : time taken

= 3/4 : 7/8

How much a puzzle can she complete in an hour?

Let

x = number of puzzle to complete

Number of puzzle : time taken

= x : 1

Equate both ratios to solve for x

3/4 : 7/8 = x : 1

3/4 ÷ 7/8 = x / 1

3/4 × 8/7 = x / 1

24/28 = x / 1

Cross product

24 * 1 = 28 * x

24 = 28x

x = 24/28

= 6/7

x = 6/7 of a puzzle

Julie is correct because:

$\frac{\sin A}{\tan A}=\frac{a/c}{b/c}=a/b=\tan A \\ \\ \frac{\sin B}{\cos B}=\frac{b/c}{a/c}=b/a =\tan B$

PLEASE HELP ME The length of the one of the legs of a right triangle is 8m and the hypotenuse is 12m. Which of the following cho

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The length of the other leg is 8.94 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Hypotenuse of a right triangle is 12 m

The length of the one of the legs of a right triangle is 8 m

We need to find the length of the other leg. It is based on the concept of Pythagoras theorem. Let the other leg is h. So, according to this theorem,

$H^2=b^2+h^2$

H = hypotenuse = 12 m

b = base = 8 m

$h^2=H^2-b^2\\\\h^2=12^2-8^2\\\\h=\sqrt{80}\\\\h=8.94\ m$

So, the length of the other leg is 8.94 m.
