a large water bottle holds 32 fluid ounces which is 0.946353 liter. round this decimal to the nearest thousandth. explain how yo
Aneli [31]

Answer:

0.946 liter

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told to round 0.946353 to the nearest thousandth.

The nearest thousandth is simply the third value after the decimal point.

Now to successfully round this number, we need to consider the number after this number. If the number is less than 5, then we round it up as zero and add to the thousandth digit.

in the case where the fourth number is higher than or equal to 5, we turn it to 1 and add it to the thousandth number

In the case of this question however, we can see that the number is less than 5, so we can only round to 0 and this does not affect the thousandth digit .

How to find missing angle of a right triangle given 2 sides
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

As a rule of thumb, if you know only the two shorter side, their ratio is the tangent of the angle opposed to the side you use as a numerator.

If you know one side and the hypotenuse, the ratio side/hypotenuse is either the sine of the opposite angle, or the cosine of the adjacent angle.
