Answer:

b = 159 m

a = 103 m

angle B is 57 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s start with getting the measure of angle B

Mathematically, since we have a right triangle , we have to subtract the given angle from 90 to get the other acute angle

So we have the measure of B as;

90-33 = 57 degrees

To get the value of a, we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

a faces the angle 33, that makes it an opposite to that angle

190 faces the right angle and that makes it the hypotenuse

Mathematically , the relationship between the two is that trigonometrically, they are related by the sine which is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

so, we have it that;

sine 33 = a/190

a = 190 * sine 33

a = 103 m

to get b, it is adjacent to the given angle

So with the hypotenuse, the ratio between it and the hypotenuse is the cosine

so;

cos 33 = b/190

b = 190 * cos 33

b = 159 m

Why is the grid in Example 1 a good way to<br> represent a percent?
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

percent means  <u>per hundred </u>

Between the 100 squares, 60 of them are shaded

so you do 60/100

it's kind of like correcting tests, you have 100 questions, you got 80 of them right so its going to be 80/100

when you calculate percentage, you do the fraction x 100

so it's 60/100 = 0.6 x100 = 60%

hope that answers your question

If the m∠1=123° m ∠ 1 = 123 ° and m∠2= (2x+7)° m ∠ 2 = ( 2 x + 7 ) ° , determine the value of x that supports l∥m l ∥ m . Show y
Georgia [21]

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that m<1 nad m<2 are supplementary. Since the sum of supplementary angles is 180degrees, hence;

<1 + <2= 180

123+2x+7 = 180

130+2x = 180

2x = 180 - 130

2x = 50

x = 50/2

x = 25

Hence the value of x is 25
