if we look on one side, we already have one measurement. 4 cm. ok, that's the measurement on that side. look to the left now. that other side is also the same length, so we take that number and multiply it be 2 to get
Wait! we're not done yet. look at the top. do you see the 3? well that's the width for the top of the rectangle. the bottom must be the same to right? so we get
add both equations and you get
The answer is 14cm! Don't forget to label. ;)
Answer:
141.78 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d = distance of boat from the base of the lighthouse
Tan 10 = 25/d
d tan 10 = 25
d = 25/tan 10
d = 141.78 m
Use the method pemdas and you get x=28
Answer:
the answer is:
The dilation is an enlargement because the image, triangle A'B'C', is larger than the pre-image, triangle ABC.
Step-by-step explanation:
I got it right on edge
X = height of pole (in meters)
With respect to the 50 degree angle, the side x is the opposite leg. It is the leg furthest from the reference angle. The hypotenuse is 5 meters.
The trig function sine ties together the opposite and hypotenuse
sin(angle) = opposite/hypotenuse
sin(50) = x/5
5*sin(50) = x .... multiply both sides by 5
x = 5*sin(50)
------------------
Since x = 5*sin(50) isn't listed as an answer choice, let's try using cosine. We can't use it right away because we don't know the adjacent side. What we can do is change the reference angle. The missing angle of the triangle is 90-50 = 40 degrees. Let's make the 40 degree angle the reference angle
So x is now the adjacent side with respect to the 40 degree reference angle. The hypotenuse is always the longest side. The hypotenuse stays at 5.
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(40) = x/5
5*cos(40) = x
x = 5*cos(40)
This expression is listed. The answer is choice B
