Answer:

29.24 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometry of angles states that in a right angled triangle with sides a, b, c representing the opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse sides respectively, and an angle A° opposite the side a

Then,

Sin A° = a/c

Cos A° = b/c

Tan A° = a/b

Hence,

Sin 20° = 10/c

c = 10/Sin 20°

c = 29.24 centimeters

Can you describe multiplying and dividing signed numbers in the real world? plz Explain
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

The example I would be using is the level of a see-saw and take a point 1 /x of the way amid the middle and the left end. If you change the point vertically by f feet, the far right finish transfers vertically by f×−x feet. If you push down, f would be negative then you are multiplying two negative numbers for a positive result, this means that the other end moves up.

What is they y intercept and why?
Olenka [21]

Answer:

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

What is the minimum number of angles required to determine the Cartesian components of a 3D vector and why?
Reika [66]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3D vector consists of 3 axes, let's say x, y and z.

Now, a vector P lies in all of them.

So, the angle it makes with x axis is α

The angle it makes with y axis is β

The angle it makes with z axis is γ

So, to determine the Cartesian components or to resolve the vector into it's Cartesian components we need 3 angles with each axis.
