Answer:

∠B=68°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a right angled triangle ΔABC with ∠A=90°, AB = 7 and AC = 17.

as  ΔABC is a right angled triangle so we will use trignometric identity to find the measure of angle B.

with respect to ∠B we are given:

P=AC=17

and  B=AB=7

hence using the tangent trignometric identity we have:

\tan B=\dfrac{P}{B}=\dfrac{17}{7}=2.4286\\ \\B=\arctan 2.4286=67.62 \degree

Hence, to the nearest degree the measure of ∠B=68°

A triangle has a base of x^1/3 m and a height of x^1/2 m. If the area of the triangle is 16 m^2​, what are the base and height o
Sliva [168]
Area = (base times height) / 2

Can rewrite it as

A= b * h * 1/2

16 = (x^(1/3)) * ( x^(1/2)) * (1/2))
Multiply by 2 to simplify
32 = x^(1/3) * x^(1/2)
32=x ^(5/6)
X=64

Base = 4
Height = 8

Please look below at how you multiply variables that have fractions as exponents (you need to add the exponents, common denominator and all that)

Boris drove 240 miles using 9 gallons of gas. At this rate, how many gallons of gas would he need to drive 216 miles?
satela [25.4K]
Use proportion to solve this.
240 miles needs 9 gallons
216 miles needs (9÷240) × 216 = 8.1 gallons

Hope it helped!
