Answers:
- sin(C) = 24/25
- cos(Z) = 5/13
=============================================
Explanation:
The formulas we use are
- sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
- cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
The fraction 15/39 reduces to 5/13 after dividing both parts by the GCF 3.
<span>B. 285/302. This is the correct answer because it is the only choice which is roughly the same ratio as 47.5/50.5 which is the ratio needed to determine how long it would take to go 47 1/2 miles in a car that averages 50 1/2 miles per hour. The mathematical equation which represents the problem is: 50.5/1 = 47.5/A (A = hours) which is the same as 50.5 A = 47.5 which means A = 47.5/50.5 which means A = .94 hours. 285/302 also equals .94.</span>
Answer:
5π, about 15.708 units
Step-by-step explanation:
A 3-4-5 triangle is a right triangle. When a circle circumscribes a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the diameter of the circle. The circumference of a circle is given by ...
C = πd
For a diameter of 5 units, the circumference is ...
C = π(5) = 5π = 15.708 . . . units

<em>Additional comment</em>
The (3, 4, 5) triple is one of the first Pythagorean triples you run across. It is the smallest integer triple, and the only primitive triple with values in an arithmetic sequence. You can show this is a Pythagorean triple by ...
3² + 4² = 9 +16 = 25 = 5²
That is, these numbers satisfy the Pythagorean theorem relation for sides of a right triangle.
