Why does sin54°≈0.809≈cos36° in a right triangle?

A
54° and 36° are complementary angles in the same right triangle. sin54° is the ratio of the opposite leg and the hypotenuse and cos36° is the ratio of the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse. In this triangle, the opposite leg of 54° and the adjacent leg of 36° are the same leg in the triangle.

B
54° and 36° are complementary angles in the same right triangle. sin54° is the ratio of the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse and cos36° is the ratio of the opposite leg and the hypotenuse. In this triangle, the adjacent leg of 54° and the opposite leg of 36° are the same leg in the triangle.

C
54° and 36° are supplementary in the same right triangle. sin54° is the ratio of the opposite leg and the hypotenuse and cos36° is the ratio of the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse. In this triangle, the opposite leg of 54° and adjacent leg of 36° are the same leg in the triangle.

D
54° and 36° are supplementary in the same right triangle. sin54° is the ratio of the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse and cos36° is the ratio of the opposite leg and the hypotenuse. In this triangle, the adjacent leg of 54° and opposite leg of 36° are the same leg in the triangle.

Answer:

A

54° and 36° are complementary angles in the same right triangle. sin54° is the ratio of the opposite leg and the hypotenuse and cos36° is the ratio of the adjacent leg and the hypotenuse. In this triangle, the opposite leg of 54° and the adjacent leg of 36° are the same leg in the triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer explains itself.

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°. When one of the angles is 90°, the sum of the other two angles is also 90°. That means those two acute angles are complementary (not supplementary).

The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Step-by-step explanation:

First we turn the fractions into improper fractions.

4 7/9 would now be 43/9

3 2/3 would not be 11/3

Now, we have to make them have the same “bottom number”

3x11=33, 3x3=9

Now our equation is..

43/9 - 33/9 = 10/9

When we turn it into a simplified fraction, it would be 1⅑

Your job is to sort and stack marblesfor sale. A bag contains 44 marbles, and some green. If there are 11 red marbles, what is the ratio of green to red marbles

Answers

Answer:

3 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total Marbles in bag = 44

Color of marbles in bag : red, green

Number of red marbles = 11

The ratio of green to red marbles :

Number of green marbles :

(Total marbles in bag - number of red marbles)

(44 - 11) = 33 green marbles

Hence, ratio of green to red Marbles:

Number of green marbles : number of red marbles

During a football game, the parents of the players are selling pretzels and popcorn to make money. They charge $2.50 for a bag of popcorn and $2 for a pretzel. The parents collect $336 in sales. They sell twice as many bags of popcorn as pretzels.

Write a system of equations to represent the situation.

How many pretzels did they sell?

Answers

Answer:

The parents sell 48 pretzels.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the number of bags of popcorn sold, and b the number of pretzels sold.

2.5a + 2b = 336

a = 2b

2.5a + a = 336

3.5a = 336

a = 96

b = 48

#1: Solve the linear system below using the elimination method. Type your
answer as an ordered pair in the form (#,#).*
2x + 5y = -16
-3x + 7y = -5

Answers

Answer:

[tex](-3,-2)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to get one like term in each equation the same in order to eliminate. To do less damage to the equation, we'll use the x terms.

To get the x terms the same, multiply both equations by the opposite x term:

[tex]-3(2x+5y)=-3(-16)\\\\2(-3x+7y)=2(-5)[/tex]

Simplify by multiplying. Use the distributive property for the left side (remember, two negatives make a positive and a negative multiplied by a positive will always be negative):

[tex]-3(2x)-3(5y)=-3(-16)\\\\2(-3x)+2(7y)=2(-15)\\\\\\-6x-15y=48\\\\-6x+14y=-10[/tex]

Now subtract all like terms. The x terms cancel out:

[tex]-6x-(-6x)=0\\\\-15y-14y=-29y\\\\48-(-10)=58\\\\-29y=58[/tex]

Now solve the new equation for y. Isolate the variable by using inverse operations. The term can be seen as -29×y. In order to isolate the variable, use division (opposite of multiplication). Divide both sides by 29:

[tex]\frac{-29y}{29} =\frac{58}{29} \\\\-1y=2[/tex]

Make the variable positive. Multiply both sides by -1:

[tex]-1(-1y)=-1(2)\\\\y=-2[/tex]

The value of y is -2. Insert this value into either original equation:

[tex]2x+5(-2)=-16[/tex]

Solve for x. Simplify multiplication:

[tex]2x-10=-16[/tex]

Use inverse operations to get like terms on the same side of the equation. Add 10 to both sides (addition is the opposite of subtraction) to cancel out the -10 on the left:

[tex]2x-10+10=-16+10\\\\2x=-6[/tex]

Isolate the variable using inverse operations. The x term can be seen as 2×x. Division is the opposite of multiplication, so divide both sides by 2:

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{-6}{2} \\\\x=-3[/tex]

The value of x is -3. Therefore, the solution to the system is:

[tex](-3_{x},-2_{y})[/tex]

Answer:

  [tex]A(\alpha)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{a^2\sqrt{3}\sin{(\alpha)}}{16\sin{(\alpha+\dfrac{\pi}{3})}}&\text{if $\alpha\le\dfrac{\pi}{2}$}\\\\\dfrac{a^2\sqrt{3}}{4}\left(1-\dfrac{\sin{(\alpha)}}{4\sin{(\alpha-\dfrac{\pi}{3})}}\right)&\text{if $\alpha>\dfrac{\pi}{2}$}\end{array}\right.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we place the bottom center at the origin and make the sides of the triangle 2 units, then the right side can be described by the equation ...

  y = √3(1 -x)

and the terminal side of the angle α can be described by ...

  y = tan(α)·x

We want the height of the shaded area, which is the y-coordinate of the point of intersection of these two lines.

  y = √3(1 -y/tan(α)) . . . . substituting for x

  y = √3·tan(α)/(√3 +tan(α)) . . . . solved for y

Since we have defined the base of the shaded area to be 1, the shaded area is half this value, or ...

  A(α) = (√3/2)tan(α)/(√3 +tan(α))

Further manipulation can put this in the form ...

  A(α) = (√3/4)sin(α)/sin(α+π/3) . . . . for α ≤ π/2, side length 2

__

For α > π/2, we need to subtract the area A(π-α) from the area of the whole triangle. This gives an area (after some rearranging) of ...

  A(α) = √3(1 -sin(α)/(4·sin(α-π/3))) . . . . for α > π/2, side length 2

__

The problem statement defines the triangle as having a side length of 'a', so the final area formula will be a factor of (a/2)² times the above expressions. That is ...

  [tex]A(\alpha)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\dfrac{a^2\sqrt{3}\sin{(\alpha)}}{16\sin{(\alpha+\dfrac{\pi}{3})}}&\text{if $\alpha\le\dfrac{\pi}{2}$}\\\\\dfrac{a^2\sqrt{3}}{4}\left(1-\dfrac{\sin{(\alpha)}}{4\sin{(\alpha-\dfrac{\pi}{3})}}\right)&\text{if $\alpha>\dfrac{\pi}{2}$}\end{array}\right.[/tex]
