Find the diagram attached

To get AB, use the pythagoras theorem;

AB² = 12² + 9²

AB² = 144 + 81

AB² = 225

AB = √225

AB = 15

Since

Hypotenuse = AB

sin <A = BC/AB

Sin <A = 12/15

Sin <A = 4/5

<A = arcsin(0.8)

<A = 53.13degrees

Sin <B = AC/AB

Sin<B = 9/15

Sin <B = 0.6

<B = arcsin(0.6)

<B = 36.87degrees

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate BD using sine ratio in Δ BCD and the exact value

sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ , thus

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BD}{BC}$ = $\frac{BD}{12}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2BD = 12 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by 2 )

BD = 6 $\sqrt{3}$

-----------------------------------------------------------

Calculate AD using the tangent ratio in Δ ABD and the exact value

tan30° = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ , thus

tan30° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{AD}{BD}$ = $\frac{AD}{6\sqrt{3} }$ = $\frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }$ ( cross- multiply )

$\sqrt{3}$ AD = 6 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by $\sqrt{3}$ )

AD = 6 → B

Kryger [21]

Answer:

This is an exponential growth problem.

The growth rate is 4% (0.04).

The time is 10 years (10 years from 2005 to 2015)

A = P(1+i)t

A = amount spent in 2015

P = amount spent in 2005

i = interest rate expressed as a decimal

t = # years

A = 500(1.04)10

A = 500(1.480244)

A = 740.122 ==> 740 billion
