Answer:

x = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

-8 = dropped 8 degrees

26 = 26 degrees at midnight

x = temperature at 6

x - 8 = 26

(add 8 to both sides) x = 34

In the figure below, BCA ~ STR. Find cos C, sin C, and tan C. Round your answers to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

$\sin C\approx0.85\\\\\cos C \approx0.52\\\\\tan C\approx1.63$

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the trigonometric ratios in aright triangle :

$\sin x =\dfrac{\text{Side opposite to x}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\\cos x =\dfrac{\text{Side adjacent to x}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\\tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}$

Given: ΔBCA ~ ΔSTR

Since , corresponding angles of two similar triangles are equal.

So, ∠C = ∠T ...(i) [Middle letter]

In triangle STR

$\sin T=\dfrac{\text{Side opposite to T}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\=\dfrac{26.4}{30.9}\approx0.85\\\\\cos x =\dfrac{\text{Side adjacent to T}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\\=\dfrac{16.2}{30.9}\approx0.52\\\\\tan T=\dfrac{\sin T}{\cos T}\\\\=\dfrac{0.85}{0.52}\approx1.63$ ...(ii)

From (i) and (ii), we have

$\sin C\approx0.85\\\\\cos C \approx0.52\\\\\tan C\approx1.63$
