Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached diagram shows the triangle ABC formed by the ladder with the wall of the house.
Triangle ABC is a right angle triangle. It has a 90 degree angle. The length of the ladder forms the hypotenuse(AC)of the triangle. This length can be determined by applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent^2
AC^2 = 22^2 + 5^2
AC^2 = 484 + 25 = 509
AC = √509
AC = 22.56
The slope of the ladder is
(change in y)/(change in x)
Slope = 22/5 = 4.4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1. here you go mate
step 1
6x - 12 < 6 equation
step 2
6x - 12 < 6 simplify
6x-12+12<6+12
step 3
6x<18 Divide both sides

answer
x<3
2. Here you go mate
step 1
2(3x-8) >8 equation
step 2
2(3x-8) >8 simplify
6x-16+16>8+16
step 3
6x>24 divide both sides

answer
x>4
Answer:
1. A = 59
2. A = 43
Step-by-step explanation:
If we have a right triangle we can use sin, cos and tan.
sin = opp/ hypotenuse
cos= adjacent/ hypotenuse
tan = opposite/ adjacent
For the first problem, we know the opposite and adjacent sides to angle A
tan A = opposite/ adjacent
tan A = 8.8 / 5.2
Take the inverse of each side
tan ^-1 tan A = tan ^-1 (8.8/5.2)
A = 59.42077313
To the nearest degree
A = 59 degrees
For the second problem, we know the adjacent side and the hypotenuse to angle A
cos A = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos A = 15.3/21
Take the inverse of each side
cos ^-1 cos A = cos ^-1 (15.3/21)
A = 43.23323481
To the nearest degree
A = 43 degrees
If there’s a graph, draw a triangle and do rise/run.
If there are two given points use formula: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to find slope
