Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

The three main trigonometric ratios are sine, cosine and tangent:

\displaystyle sin\theta=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}     \displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}    \displaystyle tan\theta=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

"Opposite" refers to the side opposite the angle that is not the hypotenuse.

"Hypotenuse" refers to the side opposite the right angle of a right triangle.

"Adjacent" refers to the side next to the angle that is not the hypotenuse.

"θ" is read as "theta". It just represents the angle.

Keep in mind that these three ratios only apply to right triangles.

You can use the mnemonic "soh-cah-toa" to help you remember these ratios.

<u>First question</u>

For the first question, we're given the angle with a measure of 56 degrees and the length of the <em>hypotenuse</em>. We must calculate <em>a</em>, which represents the side <em>adjacent </em>to the given angle.

Given the hypotenuse and the adjacent side, we know that we must use the cosine ratio:

\displaystyle cos\theta=\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

Plug in the given information:

\displaystyle cos56=\frac{a}{13}

Isolate <em>a</em> by multiplying both sides by 13:

13\displaystyle cos56=a

Solve using a calculator:

a=7.3

Therefore, <em>a</em> is equal to 7.3 when rounded to 1 decimal place.

<u>Other information you will need to know:</u>

In the above question, we needed to solve for a side. But what if we were given two sides and we needed to solve for an angle? For example:

\displaystyle sin\theta=\frac{5}{8}

In this case, we will use the inverse sine ratio:

\displaystyle \theta=sin^-^1(\frac{5}{8})

Solve using a calculator:

\displaystyle \theta=39

Therefore, the angle would equal approximately 39 degrees.

I hope this helps!

ANEK [815]

Answer:

m = 11/9

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (-7 - 4) / (-3 - 6)

= -11/-9

= 11/9

Tyra made 8 fewer jackets than zack they made 48 jackets altogether how many jackets did zac make
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

Zac Made 28 Jackets

Step-by-step explanation:

The way I solved it is by first dividing 48 by 2.

After that I subtracted 8 from Tyra's jackets and then guessed and checked.

I eventually got to the point where i found that Tyra made 20 jackets and Zac made 28 making up to 48 jackets in total.

A baby gains 11 pounds in its first year of life. The baby gained 4 1/4 pounds during the first four months and 3 1/2 pounds in
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

3.25 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 4 (1/2) + 3 (1/2) = 11

x + 4.25 + 3.5 = 11

x + 7.75 = 11

x = 11 - 7.75

x = 3.25 pounds

Solve for x when 4x+16/12=x-4
stira [4]

Answer:

In short, Your Answer would be either 1 or 7

Step-by-step explanation:

|4x + 12| = 16

As it is in modulus function, it could be either +ve or -ve

4x+12 = 16   OR   4x - 12 = 16

4x = 16-12    OR   4x = 16 + 12

4x = 4           OR   4x = 28

x = 4/4     OR  x = 28/4
