Why do the angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees?

Mathematics

Elena L [17]3 years ago

Answer:

Let N equal the number of angles in the polygon

Use the formula:

(N x 180)-360 = the sum of all the angles in the polygon

A triangle has 3 angles so:

(3 x 180)-360=180 degrees

(this formula works for any polygon, regardless of the number of it's angles)

Answer:

Angles in a triangle add up to 180 degrees because triangles are have the measure and sizes of quadrilaterals, which have an angle measure of 360 degrees. If you divide 360 degrees by 2, you will get 180 degrees.

8.) cos D<br> A<br> B<br> C<br> D<br> 6<br> 8
vagabundo [1.1K]

Using Pythagorean theorem, we can find that DG is 10.(I don't think I need to explain this)

Now cosD means the adjacent side over the hypotenuse.

The side adjacent to <D is 6 and the hypotenuse is 10 so

cosD=6/10=3/5

Which means the correct answer is choice D.

Hope this helped!

Safe wheelchair ramp specifications require about 4.75° maximum angle to be constructed with the ground. At a particular buildin
NeTakaya

Answer:

The ramp must cover a horizontal distance of approximately 19.081 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vertical distance (y), measured in feet, and the angle of the wheelchair ramp (\theta), measured in sexagesimal degrees. The horizontal distance needed for the ramp (x), measured in feet, is estimated by the following trigonometrical expression:

x = \frac{y}{\tan \theta} (1)

If we know that y = 1\,ft and \theta = 3^{\circ}, then the horizontal distance covered by this ramp is:

x = \frac{1\,ft}{\tan 3^{\circ}}

x \approx 19.081\,ft

The ramp must cover a horizontal distance of approximately 19.081 feet.
