Would a 51-foot ladder be long enough to climb a 50-foot wall? Sketch a graph and find your answer using a trigonometric ratio.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: It is not long enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we know that the "rule" for the distance between the base of the ladder and the wall is that, for each 4 ft that the ladder rises, we must have 1 foot between the base of the ladder and the wall.

then, for a 50 feet wall, the ladder must rise 50 ft, this means that the base of the ladder must be:

50ft/4 = 12.5 feet away from the wall.

Now, these two values can be thought as the cathetus of a triangle rectangle, and the ladder will be the hypotenuse, then we have (using Pythagoras theorem)

H = √(12.5ft^2 + 50ft^2) =  51.54 ft

So the theoretical safe value is bigger than the one we have, this means that the 51-foot ladder is not long enough.

The value of XY is given by the trigonometric relation and the measure of side of the triangle is XY = 8

What are trigonometric relations?

Trigonometry is the study of the relationships between the angles and the lengths of the sides of triangles

The six trigonometric functions are sin , cos , tan , cosec , sec and cot

Let the angle be θ , such that

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

cos θ = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan θ = opposite / adjacent

tan θ = sin θ / cos θ

cosec θ = 1/sin θ

sec θ = 1/cos θ

cot θ = 1/tan θ

Given data ,

Let the triangle be represented as XYZ

Let the measure of the side XY of the triangle be A

The measure of side YZ = 4

Now , from the trigonometric relations , we get

sin θ = opposite / hypotenuse

when θ = 30°

Substitute the value of θ in the equation , we get

sin θ = YZ / XY

On simplifying the equation , we get

sin 30° = 4 / XY

Multiply by XY on both sides of the equation , we get

XY ( sin 30° ) = 4

The value of sin 30° = 1/2

So , XY / 2 = 4

Multiply by 2 on both sides of the equation , we get

XY = 8

Hence , the measure of side XY of triangle is XY =8

In triangle ABC angle a equals 72° side C equals 61 and angle B equals 16° find side a to the nearest 10th

Answers

Answer:

  58.0 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to use the law of sines, we need to know angle C. It will be the angle that brings the total of all angles to 180°.

  C = 180° -A -B = 180° -72° -16°

  C = 92°

The law of sines tells us ...

  a/sin(A) = c/sin(C)

  a = c·sin(A)/sin(C) = 61·sin(72°)/sin(92°)

  a ≈ 58.0 . . . . units

In a right triangle, the measure of theta = 43 degrees and the side opposite to the measure of theta is 6.5 cm long. The length of the side adjacent to the measure of theta is approximately

Answers

We have been given that in a right triangle, the measure of [tex]\theta = 43^{\circ}[/tex] and the side opposite to the measure of theta is 6.5 cm long. We are asked to find the length of adjacent side to the angle theta.

We know that tangent relates opposite side of right triangle adjacent side.

[tex]\text{tan}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Adjacent}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{tan}(43^{\circ})=\frac{6.5}{\text{Adjacent}}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Adjacent}=\frac{6.5}{\text{tan}(43^{\circ})}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Adjacent}=\frac{6.5}{0.932515086138}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Adjacent}=6.9703966[/tex]

[tex]\text{Adjacent}\approx 6.97[/tex]

Therefore, the length of adjacent side to angle theta is approximately 6.97 units.

Which graph matches the equation y+3=2(x+3)? Mark this and return

Answers

Answer:

x= y+3/2 -3

Step-by-step explanation:

y+3/2=x+3

y+3/2-3=x

The line y = 2x + 3 on plotted graph.

Given that,
To determine whether the graph matches the equation y+3=2(x+3)

What is a line?

The line is a curve showing the shortest distance between 2 points.
The standard form of the equation of the line can be given as y = mx +c

Here,
y+3=2(x+3)
Simplifying the equation
y = 2x + 6 - 3
y = 2x + 3
The above-simplified equation represents the equation of line with slope and y-intercept as 2 and (0,3) respectively.

Thus, the line y = 2x + 3 on plotted graph.

What’s the correct answer for this?

Answers

Answer:

a) the co-ordinates of the center are (-3,4) and the length of the radius is 10 units

Center (h,k) = (-3 ,4) and radius 'r' = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given circle equation is

  [tex]2 x^{2} +12 x+2 y^{2} -16 y-150 =0[/tex]

Dividing "2' on both sides, we get

[tex]x^{2} +6 x+ y^{2} -8 y-75 =0[/tex]

Step(ii):-

now

[tex]x^{2} +2(3x) + (3)^{2}-(3)^{2} +y^{2} -2 (4 y)+(4)^{2}-(4)^2 -75 =0[/tex]

by using (a+b)² =a²+2 a b+b²

              (a-b)² =a²-2 a b+b²

[tex](x+3)^{2}-(3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}-(4)^2 -75 =0[/tex]

[tex](x+3)^{2}-9 +(y-4)^{2}-16 -75 =0[/tex]

[tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}-100 =0[/tex]

[tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=100[/tex]

[tex](x+3)^{2} +(y-4)^{2}=(10^2)[/tex]

by comparing

Find the range, mean, media and mode for 75,60,75,100,75,75,75,95,60,65

Answers

Answer:

Range: 40

Mean: 75.5

Median (a.k.a. media): 75

Mode: 75

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Put the numbers in order

60 , 60 , 65 , 75 , 75 , 75 , 75 , 75 , 95 , 100

2) Find the range

To find the range, you subtract the largest number from the smallest number. In this case, it those are 100 and 60 respectively.

100-60 = 40 which means the range is 40.

3) Find the mean

To find the mean, you add all the numbers together and then divide that by the number of numbers. So...

60 + 60 + 65 + 75 + 75 + 75 +75 + 75 + 95 + 100 = 755

755/10 = 75.5

*You divide by 10 because there are 10 numbers*

That means your mean in 75.5.

4) Find the median (a.k.a. media)

To find the median, you must find the number that is in the middle when the numbers are in order.

In this case, we have two numbers in the middle 75 and 75. To find the median we must add these two numbers together and then divide by 2.

75 + 75 = 150

150/2 = 75

That means the median is 75.

5) Find the mode.

To find the mode, you must find the number(s) that appear the most. In this case, that would be 75 as it appears five times in this number set.

That means the mode is 75.

it took 4 hours to clean 10 houses, how many houses could be cleaned in 8 hours?

Answers

Answer:

3 1/2 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the unit rate we must divide 4 by 10

4 hours divided by 10 house = 1/4

1/4 houses per hour

8 hours times 0.4= 3.2 houses

Answer:

20 houses

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s make a proportion using this setup:

houses/hours=houses/hour

We know that 10 houses can be cleaned in 4 hours. We don’t know how many houses can be cleaned in 8 hours, so we can say x houses can be cleaned in 8 hours.

10 houses/4 hours= x houses/8 hours

10/4=x/8

Now we have to solve for x, by getting x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to both sides.

x is being divided by 8. The opposite of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 8

8(10/4)=(x/8)8

8(10/4)=x

8(2.5)=x

20=x

20 houses can be cleaned in 8 hours.
