Answer:

Answer:

Length of leg of triangle =

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a 45°-45°-90° triangle with hypotenuse measuring 18 cm.

Let us assume the following labeling of the diagram, as attached in the answer area.

The two angles here are equal to 45° so two sides of the triangle opposite to the equal angles will also be equal to each other i.e. it is an isosceles triangle.

i.e. The sides XY and YZ will be equal.

Let XY = YZ = x cm

It is known that in a right angled triangle, pythagorean theorem holds well.

As per pythagoream theorem:

Putting the values:

So, the length of leg of triangle =

Jim spent $46.16 on some mulch and one shovel. Each bag of mulch costs $3.49 and the shovel cost $14.75. How many bags of mulch

mezya [45]

To find the amount he spent on bags of mulch you must take the cost of the shovel away from the total, giving the equation:
46.16-14.75=3.49x
To covert this to whole numbers, multiply by 100
4616-1475=349x
3141=349x
x=9

Zach wants to build a slanted skateboard ramp. He knows he wants the ramp to form a 15 degrees angle with the ground and be 4 fe

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: The ramp would be 15.5 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the attached diagram for details.

Angle C shows the angle to be formed by the ramp from the ground, which is 15 degrees. Also, from the ground, it’s going to be four feet tall, which is line AB. The top of the ramp is point A, which makes line AC the entire length of the ramp. Since we have a reference angle (angle C) and two sides, the opposite and the hypotenuse, we shall apply the trigonometric ratio.

SinC = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin 15 = 4/b

By cross multiplication we now have

b = 4/Sin15

b = 4/0.2588

b = 15.4599

Approximately b = 15.5

Therefore the length of the ramp would be 15.5 feet
