We are given an angle of 60° and a side of 15 cm.
We are given the opposite and is looking for the hypotenuse so we will use the sine ratio to find x.
sin = opp/hyp
hyp = 15 / sin 60
hyp = 17.32...
//
We can also use the tangent ratio to find the adjecent and then use pythagorean to find x.
tan = opp/adj
adj = 15 / tan 60
adj = 8.660.....
8.660....² + 15² = 300²
since the square root of 300 is an irrational number, we have to turn it into a mixed radical.
The answer would be the top one.
Answer:
Side 1 = 8, side 2=6, side 3=3 1/3 or 10/3
Step-by-step explanation:
We can set up a proportion comparing the sides of the original triangle to the new triangle.
The original triangle has sides 12, 9, and 5. The new triangle has sides 8, e, and f (use whatever letters you like, it doesn't matter, but for me, e is the side with the middle length and f is the side with the shortest length.
We can write 3 ratios, with the length of the new triangle over the length of the old triangle.
8/12 e/9 f/5
To figure out e and f, put each ratio equal to 8/12.
<u>8 </u> = <u>e</u> Then multiply both sides of the equation by 9 and get <u>72 </u> = e, 6=e.
12 9 12
<u>8 </u> = <u>f </u> Then multiply both sides of the equation by 9 and get <u>40 </u> = f, <u>10</u>=f.
12 5 12 3
10/3 can be rewritten as 3 1/3.
Answer:
Kevin mowed 4 lawns
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of lawns Kevin mowed be x.
12 = 3x
x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:
Two factors that have a sum of 5 and a product of -66: 11 and -6.
x² + 5x - 66
= (x + 11)(x - 6).
