Is this right? If not someone explain to me why it’s not. :)

Answer:

x= 14√3

y= 28√3

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached picture for full solution.

(tan30° and cos30° are special angles so there's an exact value to it in which we can memorise.)

In this case, by Pythagoras's Theorem, you should ensure that:

{y}^{2}  = 42^{2}  +  {x}^{2}

✓ Let's check:

{y}^{2}  = (28 \sqrt{3} )^{2}  \\ y^{2}  = 2352 \\  {x}^{2} +  {42}^{2}  = ( 14\sqrt{3})^{2} + 1764  = 2352

This satisfies Pythagoras' Theorem :)

For this kind of questions, first label the adjacent side, opposite side and the hypotenuse side of the triangle.

Cosine angle= adjacent/ hypotenuse

Sine angle= opposite/ hypotenuse

tangent angle= opposite/ adjacent

Then substitute the known side and angle to find the unknown side.

During his versus non school football team Wade made 5 of 9 field goals he tried during his second season he made 11 of the 15 f
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

  second season

Step-by-step explanation:

  5/9 ≈ 0.56 . . . first season

  11/15 ≈ 0.73 . . second season

The greater fraction of field goals was made in the second season.

__

You can also compare these fractions in this way:

  {5/9, 11/15}

Multiply both by 9×15:*

  {5·15, 9·11} = {75, 99}

The second fraction is larger.

_____

* The product of the denominators is the simplest number to compute as a multiple of both denominators. A smaller value can be found by removing a factor of 3, which is the GCD of 9 and 15. If both fractions are multiplied by 9×15/3 = 45, the result is {25, 33}. IMO, that's more work.
