Andrew is painting a wall on the side of his house. He has a 20 foot ladder wich makes a 79 degree angle with the ground. Standing on the second to past rung of the ladder, Andrew can reach 5 feet above the point where the ladder rests against the wall. How high up the wall can Andrew paint

Answers

Answer 1

Andrew can reach a maximum of [tex]24.6ft[/tex] high up the wall.

The right-angled triangle formed can be solved using the [tex]sine[/tex] ratio. that is

[tex]sin(72^\circ})=\dfrac{h}{20}[/tex]

where [tex]h[/tex] is the distance from the foot of the wall to the tip of the ladder where it rests on the wall. Substituting, and solving for [tex]h[/tex], we get

[tex]0.9816=\dfrac{h}{20}\\\\h=20\times0.9816\\\\h=19.632ft[/tex]

Since Andrew can reach an extra [tex]5ft[/tex] above the point where the ladder rests against the wall, the maximum height Andrew can paint is

[tex](19.632+5)ft=24.632ft\\\\\approx24.6ft[/tex]

Erica used 50 pounds of type B coffee

Let the number of pounds of type A coffee be A

Let the number of pounds of type B coffee be B

Total number of pounds = 123

A   +  B   =   123.........................................(1)

Cost of 1 pound of type A coffee = $5.95

Cost of 1 pound of type B coffee = $4.40

Total cost = $654.35

5.95A  +  4.40B = 654.35..........................(2)

Make A the subject of the formula in equation (1)

A  =  123  -   B........................(3)

Substitute equation (3) into equation (2)

5.95(123 - B)  +  4.40B  =  654.35

731.85  -  5.95B  +  4.40B  =  654.35

5.95B  -  4.40B  =  731.85 - 654.35

1.55B   =   77.5

B   =  77.5/1.55

B   =   50

Easy question, Worth 80 points, PLEASE HELP!! What are the angles and the side measurements for this triangle?

Answers

Answer:

the angles are 89.2°, 34.5°, 56.3° and the sides are √26units, √8units, √18units respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance between points (2,5) and (-1,2)

Using the formula, √(X2 - X1)² + (Y2 - Y1)²

= √(-1-2)²+(2-5)²

=√(-3)²+(-3)²

=√9+9

=√18 or 3√2

Distance between points (-1,2) and (4,3)

=√[4-(-1)]²+(3-2)²

= √5²+1²

=√25+1

=√26

Distance between points (2,5) and (4,3)

=√(4-2)²+(3-5)²

=√2²+(-2)²

=√4+4

=√8

Using Cosine rule/formula, C²= A²+B²-2abcosc

Let C be √18, A be √26 and B be √8

√18²=√26²+√8² - 2√26.√8cosc

18= 26+8 - 2√208cosc

18= 34 -2√208cosc

2√208cosc= 34-18

Cosc = 16/2√208

Cosc= 0.5546

c= Cos`¹(0.5547)

c= 56.3°

Using sine rule/formula

Sinc/C= Sina/A=Sinb/B

Sin56.3/√18= Sina/√26

Sina= (0.8320 × √26)/ √18

Sina= 0.9999

a= Sin`¹(0.9999)

a= 89.2

56.3+89.2+b= 180°( sum of angles in a triangle)

145.5 + b =180

b=180-145.5

b= 34.5

What is a Triangle?

A triangle in geometry is a three-sided polygon with three edges and three vertices.

As per the given data in the diagram:

We are given a triangle and all the angles of the triangle are also given.

We have to find out the type of the triangle.

If all angles of a triangle are less than 90°, then it's an acute angle triangle.

If any angle of the triangle is greater than 90°, then it's an obtuse angle triangle.

If any angle of the triangle is equal to 90°, then it's a right angle triangle.

For the given triangle:

30° < 90°

24° < 90°

126° > 90°

The given triangle is an obtuse angle triangle.

Hence, the given triangle is an obtuse angle triangle.

Answers

The train will take 16 seconds to pass completely through a 300 meter tunnel.

Let suppose that the train moves itself at constant velocity, the vehicles needs to cover the tunnel length ([tex]L[/tex]) and its length ([tex]l[/tex]), both in meters, to pass through the tunnel, the time taken by the train ([tex]t[/tex]) is described by the following kinematic formula:

[tex]t = \frac{L+l}{v}[/tex] (1)

Where [tex]v[/tex] is the train velocity, in meters per second.

If we know that [tex]L = 300\,m[/tex], [tex]l = 100\,m[/tex] and [tex]v = 90\,\frac{km}{h}\,\left(25\,\frac{m}{s} \right)[/tex], then the time taken by the train is:

[tex]t = \frac{300\,m + 100\,m}{25\,\frac{m}{s} }[/tex]

For triangle MNO, the statements that are true are m ∠ MNP < m ∠ ONP and MP< OP.

We are given a triangle MNO.

We are also given that:

m ∠ MNP = 38°

m ∠ ONP = 39°

This clearly means that:

m ∠ MNP < m ∠ ONP

Also, since m ∠ MNP < m ∠ ONP , the sides opposite to the angles will also follow the same relationship.

Side opposite to ∠ MNP is MP

and side opposite to ∠ ONP is OP

so, the relation will become:

MP < OP

Therefore, we get that, for triangle MNO, the statements that are true are m ∠ MNP < m ∠ ONP and MP< OP.

The statements m MNP m ONP and MP < OP are true for triangle MNO.

A triangle MNO is presented to us.

Additionally, we learn that

m ∠ MNP = 38°

m ∠ ONP = 39°

This demonstrates that:

m, MNP, m, and ONP

The sides that are opposite to the angles will also adhere to the same relationship because m MNP m ONP.

MP is the side that faces MNP.

and OP is the side opposite to ONP.

hence, the relationship will be:

if x(square) plus y(square) is 8.and the froduvt is . what are x and y?​

Answers

Given :-

x² + y² = 8Product of x and y is 4 .( say )

To Find :-

The value of x and y .

Answer :-

Here we are given that,

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² + y² = 8 .

And ,

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] xy = 4

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] y = 4/x

So that ,

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² + (4/x)² = 8

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x² +16/x² = 8

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x⁴ + 16 = 8x²

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x⁴ - 8x² + 16 = 0

Assume k² = x⁴ and k = x²

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k² - 8k + 16 = 0

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k² -4k -4k +16 = 0

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k(k-4) -4(k-4) = 0

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] (k-4)² = 0

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k = 4

So ,

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] k = x²

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] 4 = x²

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x = √4

[tex]\red{\longrightarrow}[/tex] x = ±2

Hence the required answer is ±2.

The values of x and y of the given function are; x = y = ±2

Roots of a Polynomial

We are given;

x² + y² = 8   -----(1)

Product of x and y = 4;

Thus; xy = 4

Now, making y the subject we have;

y = 4/x

Putting 4/x for y in eq 1 gives us;

x² + (4/x)² = 8  

x² + (16/x²) = 8

Multiply through by by x² to get;

x⁴ + 16 = 8x²

⇒ x⁴ - 8x² + 16 = 0

using online polynomial root calculator, we have x = ±2

Thus, y will also be ±2

a.) The SAS Triangle Congruence Postulate states that if if a pair of corresponding sides, a pair of corresponding angles, and another pair of corresponding sides in two triangles are congruent, then the two triangles are congruent. Therefore, we can see that in both triangles, we are only shown a corresponding, congruent right angle. We need two pairs of sides with the corresponding right angles to prove that the triangles are congruent via SAS. We would need to know the length of side VX, and it’s corresponding side length, XV. We would also need to know the side lengths of WV and it’s corresponding side length, XK. We would then need some sort of symbol to represent a congruent relationship if the side lengths are congruent. Then, we would have two pairs of corresponding, congruent sides, and a pair of corresponding, congruent angles. Then, we would have a Side-Angle-Side.

b.) We are given two triangles with a pair of corresponding, congruent sides. We need to have a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, another pair of corresponding, congruent sides to follow SAS. Therefore, we would need to know the angle measures of angles UVW and KVM. We know that they are vertical angles, so they are indeed congruent. Now, we would need to know the side lengths of sides WV and VM. If those sides are congruent, then we have a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, and another pair of corresponding, congruent sides, making SAS.

c.) The Angle Side Angle Postulate states that if there is a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, and another pair of corresponding, congruent angles in two triangles, then the two triangles are congruent. We have a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, but we need another pair of congruent, corresponding angles. Therefore, we would need to know the angle measures of angles MLK and STU. Then we would have a a pair of corresponding, congruent angles, a pair of corresponding, congruent sides, and another pair of corresponding, congruent angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the diagonal is:

Where:

l is the length (AB, CD)

b is the width (BC, AD)

h is the height (AE, BF, CG, DH)

We know d, l, b and we can calculate h

[tex]25 = \sqrt{10^{2} + 8^{2} + h^{2} } [/tex]

We evaluate both sides to ² to remove the square root:

[tex]25^{2} = 100 + 64 + h {}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]625 = 164 + h {}^{2} [/tex]

To find the value of h we have to do the square root, as it is to the ²:

[tex] \sqrt{625 - 124} = h[/tex]

[tex] \sqrt{501} = h = 22.4cm[/tex]
