Trig ratios can only be used on right triangles with acute measures.
If given an angle and there are adjacent and opposite sides, then use tan(opposite/adjacent)
If given an angle and there is an adjacent side and a hypotenuse, then use cosine(adjacent/hypotenuse)
If given an angle and there is an opposite and adjacent side, then use sin(opposite/hypotenuse)
A common mnemonic device used to memorize the trig rules is SOH-CAH-TOA
8/20 is greater than 2/10. If you were to make the denominators the same, by mulipling 2x2 and 10x2, you would get 4/20, which is less than 8/20.
Answer:
The value is 50.6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find this , set up a proportion. Use the smaller part of the triangle on top, and the corresponding part of the larger on bottom.
32.2/46.2 = x/72.6
Now cross multiply to solve
72.6*32.2 = 46.2*x
2337.72 = 46.2x
50.6 = x
Answer:
$36.80
Step-by-step explanation:
15% of 32 = 0.15x32 = $4.80
32+4.80 because it was a tip being added to the bill
=36.80
