You are creating a model of a bookcase for a dollhouse.

Goshia [24]

Answer:

If the model is 3 inches tall, the model bookcase should be 2 inches wide.

Step-by-step explanation:

When using similar figures, set up a proportion of the model measurements to the actual measurements:

$\frac{3}{48}=\frac{x}{32}$

Then cross multiply and solve for x:

$48x=96\\x=\frac{96}{48}\\x=2$

the angle theta is located in quadrant 1 and cos of theta is 3/8. what is the value of sin of theta ?

ra1l [238]

Answer: sin of theta = (√55)/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Cosine is the x-value divided by the hypotenuse. We now know that since cosine is 3/8, that the hypotenuse is 8. In order to find the third side of the triangle (which would be the v-value), we must use Pythagorean theorem. The third side is square root 55. Sine equals the y-value divides by the hypotenuse. We know both of those values, so Sine of theta = square root of 55 divided by 8.
