Answer:
15/17
Step-by-step explanation:
cos(arctan(8/15)) = 15/17
__
You could assume the ratio values 8 and 15 represent the opposite and adjacent sides of a right triangle. Then the hypotenuse is ...
h = √(8² +15²) = √289 = 17
The cosine is the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse, so is ...
cos(x) = 15/17
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Length = 17 cm
Width = 8 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the length be x cm
Therefore, Width = (x - 9) cm
Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l +w)
50 = 2[x + (x - 9)]
50/2 = 2x - 9
25 = 2x - 9
25+ 9 = 2x
2x = 34
x = 34/2
x = 17 cm
x - 9 = 17 - 9 = 8 cm
Therefore,
Length = 17 cm
Width = 8 cm
Thus, the dimensions of the rectangle are 17 cm and 8 cm.
John's. Find the first common multiple of both denominators, in this case it's going to be ten, then the number you had to multiply to change these numbers to the common multiply you do to the numerators. so it works out like so:
Deena has a bottle of 4/10
John has a bottle of 25/10 or 2 1/2 (simplified)
