With reference to the figure, sin X equals?<br> 1.) 0.250<br> 2.)0.447<br> 3.)0.894<br> 4.)1
Flura [38]

Answer:

3.) 0.894

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️First, find BD using Pythagorean Theorem:

BD² = BC² - DC²

BC = 17.89

DC = 16

Plug in the values

BD² = 17.89² - 16²

BD² = 64.0521

BD = √64.0521

BD = 8.0 (nearest tenth)

✔️Next, find AD using the right triangle altitude theorem:

BD = √(AD*DC)

Plug in the values into the equation

8 = √(AD*16)

Square both sides

8² = AD*16

64 = AD*16

Divide both sides by 16

4 = AD

AD = 4

✔️Find AB using Pythagorean Theorem:

AB = √(BD² + AD²)

AB = √(8² + 4²)

AB = √(64 + 16)

AB = √(80)

AB = 8.9 (nearest tenth)

✔️Find sin x using trigonometric ratio formula:

Reference angle = x

Opposite side = BD = 8

Hypotenuse = AB = 8.944

Thus:

sin(x) = \frac{opp}{hyp} = \frac{8}{8.944} = 0.894 (nearest thousandth)

There is no exact rule for lines of best fit. However, in general, there should be roughly the same amount above as below. So, if we are following this rule, there should be about 4 below as well.
