Answer:

x = 13.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The side marked 22 is a leg of the right triangle. The side marked x is also a leg of the right triangle. The angle marked 58° is right next to the side marked x. It is ADJACENT to the angle. The 22 side is OPPOSITE from the angle. The trig ratio that puts together the ADJACENT side and the OPPOSITE side is the tangent.

tan Angle= OPP/ADJ

tan 58° = 22/x

Times both sides by x

xtan58° = 22

Divide by tan58°

x = 22/tan58°

at this point you need need a calculator. There will be a button "tan" enter tan 58° and hit enter. Make sure your calculator is in degree mode. There will probably be a "deg" on the screen or in the info if you hit a "mode" button (its like settings)

divide 22 ÷ (tan58°)

use parentheses.

x = 13.7

a 28 inch piece of steel is cut into three pieces so that the second piece is twice as long as the first piece, and the third pi

klasskru [66]

Where x is the length of the first piece
$x + 2x + 6x + 1 = 28 \\ \\ 9x = 27 \\ \\ x = 3$
so the first piece is 3 inches, the second is 6 inches and the third is 19 inches

Answer:

Option B) w = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the value of w to make the given expression true.

The given expression is:

$14=11+\dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\14-11 = \dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\3 = \dfrac{w}{8}\cdot6\\\\\Rightarrow w = \dfrac{3 \cdot 8}{6} = 4$
