Answer:
The answer to your question is sin B = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Sine is the trigonometric function that relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.
In the picture, we have the hypotenuse and the adjacent side, so we must calculate the opposite side using the Pythagorean theorem.
b² = c² - a²
b² = 17² - 15²
b² = 289 - 225
b² = 64
b = 8
Now, we can calculate the sine
sin B = 
sin B =
Answer: x=3
Step-by-step explanation: First we do distributive property in the parentheses. Next we subtract both sides by 6. Lastly we divide both sides by 3. Algebraic Rules!!!
Work:
3(x+2)=15
3x+6=15
3x+6-6=15-6
3x=9
3x/3=9/3
x=3
The answer is 12 good luck;)
The two planes are flying on the two legs of a right triangle.
The straight distance between them is the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Since the speeds are in mph, let's work the time in hours.
Call the time 'H' that we're looking for.
It's the number of hours after they both take off that they're 650 miles apart.
After 'H' hours, the first plane has gone 500H miles north.
After 'H' hours, the second plane has gone 1200H miles east.
After 'H' hours, they are 650 miles apart.
Do you remember this for a right triangle ? ==> A² + B² = C²
(500H)² + (1200H)² = (650)²
250,000H² + 1,440,000H² = 422,500
1,690,000 H² = 422,500
H² = (422,500) / (1,690,000) = 0.25
H = √0.25 = 1/2 hour = 30 minutes
