<u>Given </u>that the length of the hypotenuse is 8 and the angle is 42°
The length of the one leg of the triangle is x.
We need to determine the value of x.
<u>Value of x:</u>
The value of x can be determined using the trigonometric ratio.
Thus, we have;
Substituting the values, we get;
Multiplying both sides of the equation by 8, we get;
Simplifying, we get;
Therefore, the value of x is 5.35(app.)
Hence, Option A is the correct answer.
If Ann can build the model in 3 hours, then in 1 hour she gets 1/3 of it done. Likewise, if Sam can build the model in 6 hours, then in 1 hour he gets 1/6 of it done. We are looking to find how long it takes when they combine their efforts, so we will add the two together and set it equal to 1/x, x being the number of hours it takes for both of them to get the whole job done. The equation then looks like this: . You will have to find the common denominator to add those fractions, and once you do, cross multiply to solve for x.
