Answer:

n = 8√2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Angle θ = 60°

Opposite = 4√6

Hypothenus = n =?

The value of n can be obtained by using the sine ratio as illustrated below:

Sine θ = Opposite / Hypothenus

Sine 60 = 4√6 / n

√3/2 = 4√6 / n

Cross multiply

n × √3 = 2 × 4√6

n × √3 = 8√6

Divide both side by √3

n = 8√6 / √3

Rationalise

n = 8√6 / √3 × (√3/√3)

n = 8√(6×3) / 3

n = 8√18 / 3

Recall

√18 = √(9×2) = √9 × √2 = 3√2

Thus,

n = 8√18 / 3

n = 8 × 3√2 / 3

n = 8√2

Line AB contains points A(-6,1) and B(1,4).

Free_Kalibri [48]

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- You have that the equation of the line is:

$y=mx+b$

Where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the y-intercept.

2- Based on the information given in the problem, the lines $AB$ and $CD$ are parallel, which means that both have the same slope. Therefore, you can calculate the slope of $AB$ :

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

$m=\frac{4-1}{1-(-6)}=\frac{3}{7}$

3- Use the coordinates of the point $D(7,2)$ to calculate the y-intercept:

$2=\frac{3}{7}(7)+b$

4. Solve for $b$ :

$b=2-3=-1$

5. The equation of the line $CD$ is:

$y=\frac{3}{7}x-1$

The answer is: $y=\frac{3}{7}x-1$

A statue is mounted on top of a 21 foot hill. From the base of the hill to where you are standing is 57feet and the statue subte

AleksandrR [38]

Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.

As we can see from the diagram,

RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill

PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill

SR= h=height of the statue

$\angle SPR$ =Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.

$\angle x=\angle RPQ$ = which is unknown.

Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle $\angle x$ which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in $\Delta PQR$ :

$tan(x)=\frac{RQ}{PQ} =\frac{21}{57}$

Which gives $\angle x$ to be:

$\angle x=tan^{-1}(\frac{21}{57})\approx20.22^{0}$

Now, we know that $\angle x$ and $\angle SPR$ can be added to give us the complete angle $\angle SPQ$ in the right triangle $\Delta SPQ$ .

We can again use the tan trigonometric ratio in $\Delta SPQ$ to solve for the height of the statue, h.

This can be done as:

$tan(\angle SPQ)=\frac{SQ}{PQ}$

$tan(7.1^0+20.22^0)=\frac{SR+RQ}{PQ}$

$tan(27.32^0)=\frac{h+21}{57}$

$\therefore h+21=57tan(27.32^0)$

$h\approx8.45 ft$

Thus, the height of the statue is approximately, 8.45 feet.

How do u put 72 7/10 into decimal?

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

72.7

Step-by-step explanation:

First multiply 72 by 10

because 72 is 72 10s, making it a whole number.

then add 720 (72 times 10) to 7.

then all of that over 10.

then just divide.

727/10

72.7

this is what you do for all mixed numbers like that one.

What is they y intercept and why?

Olenka [21]

Answer:

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.
