Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

The number you described is the same as sin(60^{\circ})=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} where the sine of an angle is the ratio between a right triangle's opposite side to the angle and the hypotenuse. So, in this case, if we had a right triangle with a height of \sqrt{3} units and a hypotenuse of 2 units, the ratio between the two sides will result in the value you provided. This right triangle in particular would be a 30-60-90 triangle.

In the case of a unit circle, it’s the y-coordinate of the point where a 60° angle in the standard position intersects a unit circle and a right triangle is created from that.

-12 + 9 - (-3) - 11

Remember PEMDAS: This is the order of operation.
P-Paragrahp
E-Exponent
M-Multiply
D-Divide
A-Add
S-Subtract

1st step: PEM
-(-3) is actually -1 * -3 = + 3

-12 + 9 + 3 - 11

2nd step: D is not possible, so we do A.
9 + 3 = 12

3rd Step: Subtract
12 - 12 - 11 = 0 - 11 = -11 CHOICE B.

Why can you use Linear Pairs and Vertical Angles to prove lines are parallel?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

The reason why linear pairs and vertical angles are used to prove lines are parallel is because they area transversal drawn through the parallel lines will form angles on each of the two parallel lines including;

1) Supplementary linear pairs  and

2) Vertical angles

3) Alternate angles

Given that either;

a) The corresponding angles that form the linear pairs are congruent

b) The corresponding vertically opposite angles are congruent

c) The corresponding alternate angles are congruent, we have;

The two lines are said to be parallel.

Describe how the product of 0.4 x 2 would look on a ten-square grid. The product would have (blank) squares shaded out of 10.
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The answer would be 0.8, 8 squares filled.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because 0.4*2 is 0.8 and that out of a grid of 10 means that 8 cubes would be shaded.
