Step-by-step explanation:

Take an equilateral triangle of side.

Bisec it through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side.

You now have two right-angled triangles with angels 30° , 60°, 90° with the edge opposite the 30° of length 1/2 and hypotenuse 1. So

sin (30°) = 1/2/1= 1/2.

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u> </u><u> </u>The right angled triangle you describe has angels of 45 degrees, not 30 degrees.

What you proved is sin 45 = 1\2 , which is correct.

Answer:

B. y= 2x–15

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that represents the line that passes through the points (8, 1) and (10,5) is y= 2x–15

"x" is found on the left hand side of the bracket and "y" is found on the right hand side of the bracket :)

(8, 1) and (10, 5)

x in the first bracket is 8 and x in the second bracket is 10.

y in the first bracket is 1 and y in the second bracket is 5.

When this equation is applied to find the value for y we get:

y= 2x-15

y= 2(8)-15

y= 16-15

y= 1

y= 2x-15

y= 2(10)-15

y= 20-15

y= 5

We got back the values of y and this means that the equation was correctly chosen and the answer is correct :)
