Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent of a 60 degree angle = Sin(60) / Cos(60)

Sin(60) = Square root (3) / 2

Cos(60) = 1/2

Tan(60) = √3 / 2 // 1/2   Invert the denominator and multiply

Tan(60) = √3/2 * 2/1

Tan(60) = √3

Tan(theta) = opposite / adjacent

Tan(theta) = x/3 in this case

Tan(60) = √3 = x/3

x = 3*√3

Answer:

3\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

In all 30-60-90 triangles, the side lengths are in the ratio x:x\sqrt{3}:2x, where x is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle and 2x is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Since the side opposite to the 30 degree angle is marked as 3, the value of x must be \boxed{3\sqrt{3}}.

Alternatively, we can use basic trig. for a right triangle to solve. In any right triangle, the tangent of an angle is equal to its opposite side divided by its adjacent side. Thus, we have:

\tan 60^{\circ}=\frac{x}{3},\\x=3\tan 60^{\circ}=\boxed{3\sqrt{3}}

Claire is going to invest $2,600 and leave it in an account for 18 years. Assuming the interest is compounded continuously, what
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Rate of interest r = 2.83 % (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested p = $2,600

Amount get A = $4,300

Number of year n = 18

Find:

Rate of interest r

Computation:

A = p(1+r)ⁿ

4,300 = 2,600(1+r)¹⁸

(1+r)¹⁸ = 1.653846

Rate of interest r = 2.83 % (Approx.)

Lerok [7]

Answer:

58.5mg of the vitamin in a drink

Step-by-step explanation:

We know...

130% of RDA for vitamin x >> RDA for vitamin x = 45mg >> 130% of 45 = ?? mg in a drink.

1. 130% = \frac{130}{100} = 1.3

2. 130% of 45 >> 1.3(45)=58.5

I hope this helps you?!
