Remark
First of all, we had best correct the labeling. The adjacent is the side making up the unknown angle, and the opposite is the side not making up the given angle (in this case, x)
So you have mixed up the opposite and the adjacent. You need to switch them.
Step Two (Bottom Diagram)
Sin(x) = opposite / hypotenuse
Sin(x) = 12 / 18
Sin(x) = 2/3
Sin(x) = 0.6666666666
x = sin-1(0.66666666)
x = 41.18103
Problem One (Top One)
Sin(x) = opp/hypotenuse
Sin(x) = 4/5
Sin(x) = 0.8
x = sin-1(0.8)
x = 53.13 Answer <<<<<
Answer: 30 degrees
This is the minimum amount of rotation.
Why this value? Well because 360/12 = 30
Consider a triangle with 3 sides. Specifically I mean an equilateral triangle. We can rotate it 120 degrees to have it line up with itself. Now notice that 360/3 = 120.
For a square, we can rotate it 90 degrees and we can say 360/4 = 90
So the general rule is that the minimum angle of rotation is 360/n, where n is the number of sides. This rule only works for regular polygons. Regular polygons have the same side length and the same angle measure (the side and angle measure won't necessarily be equal).
So going back to this 12 sided dodecagon, we have n = 12 and 360/n = 360/12 = 30 as the minimum angle of rotation. Each 30 degree rotation will have the polygon match up perfectly with its old image. The preimage and image will be identical.
Answer:
similar but not congruent
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
There is a scale factor of 1
Step-by-step explanation:
the ratio 1:1 means that there is no difference between the two triangles, and that they are congruent.
Answer:
No motion in either direction
