By applying the Pythagorean Theorem and the Trigonometry ratio, CAH, the value of cos(M) = 4/5

<em><u>Recall:</u></em>

Trigonometry ratios, <em>SOH CAH TOA</em> can be applied to solve a right triangle.

  • Pythagorean Theorem can also be applied which is: c² = b² + a², where c is the longest side (hypotenuse length).

<em><u>Given:</u></em>

ΔMNL is a right triangle

ML = 25

NL = 15

Find MN using the Pythagorean Theorem:

MN = √(ML² - NL²)

MN = √(25² - 15²)

MN = 20

To find the value of cos(M), apply the trigonometry ratio, CAH, which is:

cos ∅ = Adj/Hyp

  • Where,

∅ = M (reference angle)

Hypotenuse = ML = 25

Adjacent = MN = 20

  • Plug in the values:

cos(M) = 20/25

cos(M) = 4/5

How do i do this question? someone help
lesya [120]
There are 360 degrees in the rhombus which means the equilateral triangles has 180 degrees (because it is half the rhombus and also it is the angle sum of a triangle). It is equilateral meaning all sides and angles are the same so they all must be 60 (180/3)
Now this must mean that angle a is equal to the opposing angle being 60

Probability = Number of green and white jelly beans / Total number of jelly beans * 100%

= 6 / (4 + 2 + 5) * 100% = 54.55%.
