Answer:
The legs of a triangle with a hypotenuse that measures 15 units long have lengths that are equal to 15 times the sine or cosine of the given angle.
leg 1 = (15 units) x (cos 19) = 14.18 units
leg 2 = (15 units) x (sin 19) = 4.88 units
The lengths of the legs are 14.18 units and 4.88 units.
If two triangles are similar then the
corresponding sides are in proportion. Thus,
AB / AU = BC / UV = AC / AV
AB / (20x+108) = 703 / 444
Where AB is equivalent to:
AB = AU + UB
AB = 20x + 108 + 273
AB = 20x + 381
Therefore going back to the first equation:
(20x + 381) / (20x + 108)
= 703/444
444 (20x + 381) = 703 (20x + 108)
8880x + 169164 = 14060x + 75924
14060x - 8880x = 169164 – 75924
5180 x = 93240
x = 93240 / 5180

Answer: 15/5 or 3
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x =6/5
1/5x = 3/5
5/5x = 15/5 or 3
9 dived by 3 = 3
so he surfed for 3 hours = 1/3 of 9
and there are 6 hours left
so he spent 6 hours building a sandcastle
