Sine of the angle = opposite side over the hypotenuse
sin(42°) = 6.5/h
rearrange, solve for h
h = 6.5/sin(42°)
h = 9.7 cm
For the other triangle, the angle is unknown. I'd split it into two right triangles; down angle x since it is an isosceles it will be bisected into two equivalent triangles.
The hypotenuse we just found is now split in half. 9.7/2 = 4.9 base of the new smaller right triangle.
The new hypotenuse of the smaller triangle is 7.4 cm
Then you have..
sin(x/2) = 4.9/7.4
sin(x/2) = 0.67
use inverse sine function
arcSin(0.67) = x/2
41 = x/2
82° = x
There are many ways to solve this problem. This is just what I thought of first using trig.
Answer: 7.7%
Step-by-step explanation: First find the increase in height by subtracting 52 from 56. 56-52=4.
To find what percent this is of 52, divide 4 by 52. 4/52=0.0769. Then convert this from a decimal to a percent by multiplying by 100. 0.0769*100=7.69.
I just rounded it to the nearest tenth, you can change it how you need to.
6n + 15 = -42. If you wish to go further and find n, then subtract 15 from both sides, obtaining 6n = -57, so that n = -57/6.
