In ΔSTU, the measure of ∠U=90°, TU = 28 feet, and ST = 39 feet. Find the measure of ∠T to the nearest tenth of a degree?
2 answers:
Answer:
∠T≈44.1
Step-by-step explanation:
Please see the attached image.
Relative to ∠T, we know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse, 28 and 39 respectively.
We can use a trig function to solve for ∠T. When given the adjacent side and hypotenuse, we can use cosine.
The cosine of an angle is the adjacent side to that angle over the hypotenuse.
cos(T)=28/39
T=(28/39)
T≈44.1

A circle is simply a curve made up of all the points that are the same distance from the center. This distance is called the radius of the circle. It's important to know that <em>all circles are similar to each other</em>, but what is similarity? It's simply, shapes are similar if we can turn one into the other by moving, rotating, flipping, or scaling. So every circle can match any other circle by moving it, rotating it, flipping it, or scaling it.
Then circles O and Q shown below are similar no matter what's the radii of them.
