Answer:

x = 3.86

a = 5.86

Step-by-step explanation:

From the triangles attached,

By applying cosine rule in triangle 1,

cos(50)° = $\frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

cos(50)° = $\frac{x}{6}$

x = 6cos(50)°

x = 3.86

Now we apply sine rule in the second triangle,

sin(23)° = $\frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

sin(23)° = $\frac{a}{15}$

a = 15sin(23)°

a = 5.86

lara [203]

We can write the first part of this problem as: What is 6.5% of $29,990.

"Percent" or "%" means "per 100" or "out of 100". Therefore

6.5 hope this helps (:

can be written as

6.5

100

When dealing with percentages the word "of" means the product of or to multiply.

Let's call the sales tax amount we are looking for

We can now write the problem as:

6.5

100

29990

194935

100

1949.35

The sales tax on the car is: $1,949.35.

The total price of the car is then:

990.00

949.35

Is this sss, asa, sas or none

Arlecino [84]

Answer: ASA

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

Explanation:

ASA stands for "angle side angle"

The first A refers to the bottom left pairs of angles for the triangles. They have one single arc mark to indicate they pair up and are congruent.

The S refers to the bottom sides of the triangle having the same length (the single tickmark shows they are congruent)

The second A is for the pair of angles on the bottom right side of the triangles. These angles have 2 arc marks.

The order of the lettering is important because the S in ASA is between the two angles. As the diagram shows, the sides mentioned are between the angles mentioned. Contrast this with AAS or SAA which has the sides not between the angles.
