sin x = cos (90 - x) or cos x = sin (90 - x)

This identity holds when the two angles are complementary

i.e. they sum up to 90 degrees.

The value of x is 35°

There are three commonly used trigonometric identities.

Sin x = 1/ cosec x

Cos x = 1/ sec x

Tan x = 1/ cot x or sin x / cos x

Cot x = cos x / sin x

We have,

cos x° = sin (20° + x°), where 0 < x < 90

We know that,

sin x = cos (90 - x) or cos x = sin (90 - x)

This identity holds when the two angles are complementary

i.e. they sum up to 90 degrees.

x + 90 - x = 90

Now,

cos x = sin (20 + x)

x + 20 + x = 90

2x + 20 = 90

2x = 70

x = 35

Thus,

The value of x is 35°

If the raft travels the distance between ports a and b after 30 hours and the motorboat travels the distance in 6 hours. After the departure the two boats will after 5 hours 4 minutes.

Given that,

After leaving the port,

Raft travels the distance between a and b ports = 30 hours

Motorboats travels the distance between a and b ports = 6 hours

The triangle formed by their tracks and the line joining their current positions in a right angled triangle.

According to the Pythagoras Theorem,

    a² + b² = c²

⇒ (30)²+ (6)² = c²

⇒ 900 + 36 = c²

Emily's prediction was off by 9.09%

Enrique's prediction was off by 11.11%

The percentage is calculated by dividing the required value with the total value and multiplying it by 100.

Example:

Required percentage value = a

total value = b

Percentage = a/b x 100

We have,

Emily:

Each month payment = $250

Each month actual payment = $275

The percentage prediction is off by.

=  (275 - 250) / 275 x 100
= 25/275 x 100

= 9.09%

Enrique:

Each month payment = $200

Each month actual payment = $225

The percentage prediction is off by.

= (225 - 200)/225 x 100

= 25/225 x 100

= 11.11%

The area of the circle in terms of π if the circle has a radius of 16 ft is 256 π ft^2. Option A is correct.

First, let us understand the circle:

A circle is nothing more than a round form with no corners or line segments. In geometry, it is a closed curve shape.

Some formulas related to circle:

Area of the circle = πr^2

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

where, r = radius of the circle.

We are given;

A circle has a radius of 16 ft.

We need to find the area of the circle in terms of π.

Area of the circle = πr^2

Put the value of r in the above formula:

Area of the circle = π 16^2 * ft^2

Area of the circle = 256 ft^2

Thus, the area of the circle in terms of π if the circle has a radius of 16 ft is 256 π ft^2. Option A is correct.

The sample size required for the true proportion of students who have parents who have remarried is 607.

What is termed the Confidence Interval?

The confidence interval is indeed the range of values within which you expect your forecast to fall a certain proportion of the time if you repeat your experiment or re-sample a population in the same manner.

The alpha value determines the confidence level, which is the percentage of times you anticipate reproducing an approximate between both the upper and lower limits of the confidence interval.

The above problem is based on the use of determining sample size to estimate the true percentage of students given the constraints.

We may also need to consult the table to determine the Z value.

For the given question,

α = 0.5

Consider the Z-table,

Zα/2 = Z (0.1/2)

Z (0.025) = 1.96

Let 'n' be the sample size required for the true proportion of students who have parents who have remarried.

For calculating the margin error 'E' is given 3%.

n = Z² (α/2) / E² × (P°(1 - P°))

Put the given values.

n = (1.96)² / (0.03)²  × (0.28(1 - 0.28))

On solving,

n = 4268.444(0.2016)

n = 860.51

n ≈ 860.51

Thus, the sample size required for the true proportion of students who have parents who have remarried is 860.

The first and second cars are 7724 feet apart from each other.

The angle of depression is the angle we have to move your eyes downwards to look at the car from the plane. Let's start with the first car, with the 31° angle of depression. Draw an upside-down right triangle with vertices at the plane, the car, and the point 3500 feet in the air above the car (level with the plane). The vertex at the plane is 31° and the right angle is the vertex in the air above the car. The length of the leg from the car to the point in the air above the car is 3500 feet. We like to find the length of the leg from the plane to the point in the air above the car. Since the two sides involved are the legs of the triangle, use tangent:

     tan = opposite/ adjacent

⇒  tan(31°) = 3500/x

⇒ 0.60086 = 3500/x

⇒ 0.67 x = 3500            [ rounding up 0.60086 = 0.67]

⇒ x = 5223.88

That means the first car is 5223.88 feet from the point on the highway below the plane.

We can do something similar with the second car, which has an angle of depression of 53° from the plane. Again, the leg from the car to the point in the air above the car (level with the plane) is 3500 feet, the right angle is at the vertex at the point in the air above the car, and the 53° angle is at the vertex at the plane. We are looking for the length of the other leg, which runs from the plane to the point in the air above the car. Use tangent:

    tan(53°) = 3500/x

⇒ 1.327 = 3500/x

⇒ 1.4x = 3500            [ rounding 1.327 = 1.4]

⇒ x = 3500/1.4
⇒ x = 2500

That means the second car is 2500 feet from the point on the highway below the plane.

Add the two distances together to get the total distance from car to car:

5223.88 + 2500.00 = 7723.88

So, rounded to the nearest foot, the cars are 7724 feet apart.

number of white cars = 50

number of red cars = 30

number of silver cars = 20

let the number of green cars be "x" ,

So , the number of green cars possible = 200 - 100 = 100

that means x ≤ 100 .

So , P(green) = x/200

Option(a)

p = 0.2 ,

So , x/200 = 0.2

x = 40

Option(b)

p = 0.1 ,

So , x/200 = 0.1
