Answer: A
Step-by-step explanation:
because i nsaid sooooo
The sides of the triangle are 20 in, 48 in and 52 in
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Let x be the length of smaller leg
Hypotenuse, H = x + 32
Height, h = x + 28
Length of the sides of a triangle = ?
If the triangle is a right angle triangle then we use pythagoras theorm to solve the question.
So,
(Hypotenuse)² = (height)² + (Base)²
(x + 32)² = (x + 28)² + (x)²
x² + 1024 + 64x = x² + 784 + 56x + x²
240 + 8x - x² = 0
x² - 8x - 240 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation:
x² + 12x - 20x - 240 = 0
x(x+12) - 20(x+12) = 0
(x-20) (x+12) = 0
(x-20) = 0
x = 20 in
Hypotenuse, H = x + 32
H = 20 + 32 in
H = 52 in
Height, h = x + 28
h = 20 + 28 in
h = 48 in
Therefore, the sides of the triangle are 20 in, 48 in and 52 in
You have to use Trigonometric ratios here. I'll help you with a question, and you try to do the other two.
a. You are given the hypotenuse, and told to figure out the opposite. The trigonometric function that deals with that is sin(x), which is opposite over hypotenuse. So:
Solve for y:
Simplify:
For these problems, you have to remember the ratios Sine, Cosine, and Tangent. An easy way is to make a mnemonic device. A good one that a lot of people use is SohCahToa. Which is Sine (Opposite, Hypotenuse), Cosine (Adjacent, Hypotenuse) and Tangent (Opposite, Adjacent). Remember trigonometry is just a glorified field of ratios of sides to angles. There are many more trigonometric ratios including inverse trigonometric ratios, reciprocal trigonometric ratios, and hyperbolic trigonometric ratios (which show up during differential calculus). But for now, focus on this. Haha.
Answer:
I think it's option B ...
Answer:
(a) 0.4
(b) a = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The area under the curve from x=4 to x=6 is 0.2 units high and 2 units wide, so is 0.2·2 = 0.4. (The area of a rectangle is the product of length and width.)
(b) The area is 0.2 and the height of the curve is 0.2, so the width of the region of concern is 0.2/0.2 = 1. (Again, area = height·width, or width = area/height.) 1 unit from the left end is found at X=3, so a = 3.
