Hints on solving trigonometry problems:
If no diagram is given, draw one yourself.
Mark the right angles in the diagram.
Show the sizes of the other angles and the lengths of any lines that are known
Mark the angles or sides you have to calculate.
Consider whether you need to create right triangles by drawing extra lines. For example, divide an isosceles triangle into two congruent right triangles.
Decide whether you will need Pythagorean theorem, sine, cosine or tangent.
Check that your answer is reasonable. The hypotenuse is the longest side in a right triangle.
How to use the tangent ratio to find missing sides or angles?
Example:
She worked 2 1/2 hrs yesterday and 4 1/4 hrs today...
2 1/2 + 4 1/4 =
2 + 4 = 6
1/2 + 1/4 = 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4
so she worked a total of 6 3/4 hrs....or 6.75 hrs
she is paid $ 54
54 / 6.75 = $ 8 per hr <=== what she earned per hr
Answer:
32 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
The interior angles of a triangle always add up to 180.
Subtract the sum of 106 and 42 from 180.
180-(106+42)
180-(148)
32
x is equal to 32 degrees.
Answer:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
Exact Form:
x=92x=92
Decimal Form:
x=4.5x=4.5
Mixed Number Form:
x=412x=412
