Why do we need to know the different abbreviation of measurements and its equivalent?

Mathematics
1 answer:
valentinak56 [21]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

See explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

You will need to know the abbreviations of measurements because when pertaining to the real world, an you will see things as so "This fence is about 15ft tall." or "Jacobb is 72in tall."  If you do not understand the abbreviations you will not understand what anyone is ever talking about when it comes to measurements. As for knowing how to convert measures to be equivalent, that is important because some measurements are bigger than others. It doesn't make since to say 12 inches, when you can just say 1 foot.

A tangent to a circle at point A is given, and point A is an endpoint of a chord, which is the same length as radius of the circ
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Call the other end of the chord point B and the center of the circle point O. Then triangle AOB is an equilateral triangle, since OA = OB = AB.

Angle OAB is the internal angle of that triangle, so is 60°. Since OA is perpendicular to the tangent line (makes an angle of 90°), The angle between the tangent line and the chord must be ...

90° - 60° = 30°

___

The other way you know this is that central angle AOB is 60°, and the tangent-to-chord angle is half that, or 30°.

_____

One way to remember the angle relationship between a tangent line and a chord is this:

Consider a point C on long arc AB. The measure of inscribed angle ACB is half the measure of central angle AOB, no matter where C is on the circle. (If C happens to be on the short arc AB, then central angle AOB is a reflex angle, but the relationship still holds.) Consider what happens when C approaches A. The angle at vertex C is still the same: 1/2 the measure of central angle AOB. This remains true even in the limit when points A and C become coincident and line AC is a tangent at point A.

ABC IS CONGRUENT TP DEF WHAT IS THE VALUE OF X Explain how you determined the answer
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

It is 3 because fi you multiply 5 by 3 you get 15, and if you multiply 10 by 3 you get 30. Subtract 30 by 6 and get 24. And finally, if you multiply 2 by 3 it gives you 9. 9+12= 21.

The American Veterinary Association claims that the annual cost of medical care for dogs averages $100 with a standard deviation
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The probability that the cost for someone's dog is higher than for the cat is 33.2%.

Step-by-step explanation:

With the data given, we know that the difference in cost of medical care of dogs and cats have a normal distribution with μ=-20 and σ=46.

To know the probability of the cost for the dog is higher than the cat, we have to calculate the probability of P(d>0).

Then we have to calculate z, and look up in a standarized normal distribution table.

Calculate z:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{0-(-20)}{46}=\frac{20}{46}=   0.4348

The probability of the difference being higher than 0, we have:

P(d>0)=P(z>0.4348)=0.33185

We can say that the probability that the cost for someone's dog is higher than for the cat is 33.2%.

Tell whether the angles are adjacent or vertical. Then find the value of x.
Gwar [14]

Answer:

x = 128

Step-by-step explanation:

Adjacent angles - Angles right next to each other. They share a common vertex

Vertical angles - angles that are vertically aligned with each other.

The angle that has a measure of 128 degrees and x are vertical angles

If you didn't know vertical angles are congruent so because one angle equals 128 degrees the other equals 128 degrees

x = 128
