Answer:

  DE ≈ 14.91

Step-by-step explanation:

Make use of the relationships between sides and angles in a right triangle. These are summarized by the mnemonic SOH CAH TOA:

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

__

The side DE is opposite the angle 19°, so the sine or tangent relation will be involved. The sine relation requires you know hypotenuse EF. The tangent relation requires you know adjacent side DF.

The only common side between triangles CDF and DEF is side DF. That side is opposite the given 61° angle. The given side length (CF = 24) is adjacent to the 61° angle.

This means you have enough information to use these relations:

  tan(61°) = DF/CF = DF/24

  DF = 24·tan(61°)

and

  tan(19°) = DE/DF

  DE = DF·tan(19°) = (24·tan(61°))·tan(19°) . . . . . use DF from above

  DE ≈ 24(1.804048)(0.344328) ≈ 14.908

The length of DE is about 14.91.

PLease help me ,really need help with explanation​
mylen [45]

a)

Check the picture below.

b)

volume wise, we know the smaller pyramid is 1/8 th of the whole pyramid, so the volume of the whole pyramid must be 8/8 th.

Now, if we take off 1/8 th of the volume of whole pyramid, what the whole pyramid is left with is 7/8 th of its total volume, and that 7/8 th is the truncated part, because the 1/8 we chopped off from it, is the volume of the tiny pyramid atop.

Now, what's the ratio of the tiny pyramid to the truncated bottom?

\stackrel{\textit{\Large Volumes}}{\cfrac{\textit{small pyramid}}{\textit{frustum}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8}whole ~~}{\frac{7}{8}whole}}\implies \cfrac{~~\frac{1}{8} ~~}{\frac{7}{8}}\implies \cfrac{1}{8}\cdot \cfrac{8}{7}\implies \cfrac{1}{7}

What fraction has a decimal value between 1/2 and 3/4
andreyandreev [35.5K]
To find the decimal value, we must convert 1/2 and 3/4 into decimal.
1/2=0.5
3/4=0.75
Now we just have choose a random decimal in between the decimal.
Let's choose 0.6
Now we have to convert the decimal into a fraction. So we'll multiply the decimal by100.
0.6×100=60
Then we make the 60 into a fractions. 60/100
Then we'll simply the fraction. 60/100÷10=6/10÷2=3/5
There you go. You have your answer.
