Answer:

direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation can be written in the direct variation form ...

y = kx

y = -8x . . . . rewrite of the given equation (multiply by -4)

This is an example of direct variation.

Solve the triangle.

velikii [3]

Given 2 sides and 1 included angle, the area of a triangle can be solved using the formula:

Area = ab (sin C)/2

Substituting the given values:

Area = 10 * 23 * (sin 95)/2
Area = 114.56 sq. units

Answer:

498 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The AAA theorem states that triangles are similar if all three corresponding angles are equal.

1. Compare triangles FHS and ILS

(a) Reason for similarity

∠F = ∠I = 90°

∠S is common.

∴ ∠H = ∠L

(b) Calculate SL

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{SF}{SH} & = & \dfrac{SI}{SL}\\\\\dfrac{225}{380} & = & \dfrac{225 + 475}{SL}\\\\225SL & = & 380 \times 700\\& = & 266000\\SL & = & \textbf{1182 m}\\\end{array}$

2. Compare triangles ILS and GLE

(a) Reason for similarity

∠I = ∠G = 90°

∠L is common.

∴ ∠S = ∠E

(b) Calculate LE

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{IS}{GE} & = & \dfrac{LS}{LE}\\\\\dfrac{700}{180} & = & \dfrac{1182}{LE}\\\\700LE & = & 180 \times 1182\\& = & 212800\\LE & = & \textbf{304.0 m}\\\end{array}$
