A Train Track Through A Mountain Is 1600 Feet Long And Makes An Angle Of 1.6 With The Horizontal. What

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

law of sine :

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

with the sides and correlating angles being always opposite to each other.

we are dealing with a right-angled triangle here.

the train track is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90° angle) : 1600 ft.

the horizontal level "connection" from beginning to the end of the track is one leg, and the elevation difference at the end of the track is the second leg.

the 2 legs enclose a 90° angle, as the elevation goes straight up from the horizontal level.

so, we have

1600/sin(90) = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

sin(90) = 1

1600 = elevation difference / sin(1.6)

elevation difference = 1600 × sin(1.6) =

= 1600 × 0.027921639... =

= 44.67462196... ft

≈ 44.7 ft

How do I prove if EFGH is a rhombus in this paragraph proof?

Answers

Explanation:

There are many approaches you can take. Perhaps one of the easiest is to show the sides of the rhombus are all the same length. This can be done several ways. Here are a couple of them.

__

1.

A square has degree 4 rotational symmetry, so will map to itself when rotated by any multiple of 90°. This means the midpoints of adjacent sides will map to themselves, and any segment joining the midpoints of adjacent sides will map to itself. When segments map to themselves, they are congruent, hence the four sides of EFGH are congruent, and the figure is a rhombus.

__

2.

The sides of a square are the same length and all corner angles are right angles. Midpoints of the sides divide the sides into congruent parts, so all of the segments PF, FQ, QG, GR, and so on are congruent. This means all of the triangles PFE, QGF, RHG, and SEH are congruent by the LL postulate. Corresponding sides of congruent triangles are congruent, so the sides of EFGH are congruent, and the figure is a rhombus.

9x^2 - 24x + 16

Answer:

9x^2 − 24x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a square, you use the formula

A = x^2

So we plug in 3x-4 for x

A = (3x-4)^2

A = 9x^2 − 24x + 16

find the simple interest on $6000 invested for 8 years at 4%

Answers

Answer:

$1920.00

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to calculate the interest on $6000 at 4% interest per year after 8

year(s).

The formula we'll use for this is the simple interest formula, or:

I= P * r * t

Where:

• P is the principal amount, $6000.00.

• r is the interest rate, 4% per year, or in decimal form, 4/100=0.04.

• t is the time involved, 8.…..year(s) time periods

So, t is 8...year time periods.

To find the simple interest, we multiply 6000 x 0.04 x 8 to get that:

The interest is: $1920.00

Answer:

a= 50

b=50

c=110

d=20

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a kite. So the two triangles formed by the longest diagonal being drawn in form 2 congruent triangles.

Therefore c = 110 degrees.

d = 20 degrees.

a and b are found by noting that every triangle has 180 degrees.

110 + 20 + a = 180           Combine the left.

130 + a = 180                   Subtract 130 from both sides

a = 180 - 130

a = 50 degrees

b also equals 50 degrees.  Congruent triangles

Find the measure of the arc or angle indicated

Answers

Answer:

D) 130

Step-by-step explanation:

So there are three arc sections in this problem,

The first one is given: 158

To find the arc between S and R, you can use the angle of point T and double it.

So:

36 * 2 = 72

The second arc is 72

Now for the one that they want you to find, you have to add the two arcs that you have and substract it from 360, which is the angle of a whole circle

Like so:

360 - (158 + 72) = 130

A triangle has two sides of length 1 and 8. What is the smallest possible whole-number length for the third side?

Answers

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

For the smallest possible length, this has to be one of the shorter sides. Let the length of this side be x.

So, by the triangle inequality theorem, 1+x>8, which means x>7.

So, the smallest possible whole number length is 8.

A rectangular flower bed measures 10 m by 6 m. It has a path 2 m wide around it. Find the area of the path.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way to answer this is to calculate the area of the large rectangle (white) and subtract the area of the small rectangular (black).

we know the dimensions of the small rectangle : 10×6

and because of the 2m thick "frame" we know the dimensions of the large rectangle by adding 2×2 m to every small dimension : 14×10

(2 m on the top and the bottom, and 2 m left and right, so 4 m added in every direction).

the area of the large rectangle is

14 m × 10 m = 140 m²

the area of the small rectangle is

10 m × 6 m = 60 m²

so the area of the path is

140 - 60 = 80 m²
