Answer:

x ≈ 61.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos71° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{20}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

x × cos71° = 20 ( divide both sides by cos71° )

x = \frac{20}{cos71} ≈ 61.4 ( to the nearest tenth )

<h3>Answer:  61.4</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

Use the cosine ratio to get the following,

cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse

cos(71) = 20/x

x*cos(71) = 20

x = 20/cos(71)

x = 61.431 approximately

x = 61.4

Notes:

  • The hypotenuse is always the longest side of any right triangle, so x must be larger than 20.
  • Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.

the ratio of the areas of two rectangles is 4 to 5. if the area of the larger rectangle is 135 square feet, what is the area of
-BARSIC- [3]
Divide the number 135 and 5. It is going to be 27. Then you multiply 27 times 4. Then you get your answer which is 108.
Proportion set up....
small    4                    ?          small
           -----             --------
big         5                    135         big         
Cross multiply 4x135= 540
and then divide 540/5= 108

Under his cell phone plan, Ian pays a flat cost of $59.50 per month and $5 per gigabyte. He wants to keep his bill under $80 per
inessss [21]
You would start by saying his budget is $80 so you start with 80= he pays an initial fee of $59.50 every month plus $5 per gigabyte so you would set it up like
80=59.50+5x
X being how many gigabytes he uses then you solve 80-59.50 is 20.5 divided by 5 gives you 4.1 but you round down cause you don’t want to pass the limit so therefor the most gigabytes he can use is 4

In this problem, you must use SohCahToa which basically means:

Sin - opposite over hypotenuse

Cosine - adjacent over hypotenuse

Tangent - Opposite over hypotenuse


So in this picture we have 4 -which is on the opposite side of x - and a 5 -which is the hypotenuse of the triangle. This means we must use sin.

Using a calculator you put in:

sin^{-1} (\frac{4}{5} )

Your answer is 53.13 degrees
