A wooden frame is to be constructed in the form of an isosceles trapezoid, with diagonals acting as braces to strengthen the frame. The sides of the frame each measure 5.3 feet, and the longer base measure 12.7 feet. If the angles between the sides and the longer base each measure 68.4 degrees, find the length of one brace to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

11.8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the length of one side, l = 5.3 ft, the longer base b = 12.7 ft and the one brace, d form a triangle with angle between the longer base and side being the angle facing the brace is θ = 68.4°, we use the cosine rule to find the length of thee brace.

So d² = l² + b² -2lbcosθ

So, substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

d² = (5.3 ft)² + (12.7 ft)² -2(5.3)(12.7)cos68.4°

d² = 28.09 ft² + 161.29 ft² - 134.62(0.3681)

d² = 189.38 ft² - 49.56 ft²

d² = 139.82 ft²

taking square-root of both sides, we have

d = √139.82 ft²

d = 11.82 ft

d ≅ 11.8 ft to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Determine whether the given triangles are congruent

Answers

Answer:

Yes they are congruent and it is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 5 postulates when testing for congruency and they are;

SSS, SAS, ASA, AAS and HL.

S represents side

A represents angle

H represents hypotenuse

L represents leg

Now, in this our question, we can see that the 3 angles and the three sides of both triangles are equal to each other.

Thus, we can make use of SSS postulate whereby we say the 3 sides of the first triangle are equal to the 3 sides of the second triangle.

Thus, they are congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the point (5,-12) lies on the terminal side of an angle theta in standard position.

We have to find the exact value of [tex]cot\theta[/tex].

Let

Point (x,y)=(5,-12)

[tex]r=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}[/tex]

The ratio of red flowers to yellow flowers in a field is 5 to 7. If there are 392 yellow flowers in the field, how many red flowers are there?

Answers

Answer:

1. The new weight of elephant is 5.342 tones.

3. The number of red flowers are 280.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. weight of elephant = 6 tons

weight lost = 1450 pounds

As , 1 pound = 0.000454 ton

So, 1450 pounds = 0.658 ton

The new weight of elephant is

= 6 - 0.658 = 5.342 tones

3.

red flower to the yellow flower is 5 : 7

Number of yellow flowers = 392

Let the red flowers are R.

So,

[tex]\frac {5}{7}=\frac{R}{392}\\\\R = 280[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

C.20

Confidence interval concepts:

A confidence interval has two bounds, a lower bound and an upper bound.

A confidence interval is symmetric, which means that the point estimate used is the mid point between these two bounds, that is, the mean of the two bounds.

The margin of error is the difference between the two bounds, divided by 2.

In this question:

Lower bound: 70

Upper bounf: 110

Margin of error:

Function is a set of ordered pairs where there cannot be same x-values or repetitive domain in a set.

For example below below:

{(1,1),(2,3),(3,3),(4,5)}

The following relation is a function since there are no same x-values in a set.

{(1,1),(1,2),(2,2),(4,8)}

The following relation is not a function since there are same two x-values which is D = {1} or (1,1) and (1,2) both have same domain. Thus, not making the relation a function.

From the question, the relation is a function because in a set of ordered pairs, there aren't any same x-values.

what is the total cost for an item that costs $140.00 and has a sales tax rate of 7.5%

Answers

Answer:

$150.5

Step-by-step explanation:

CP of an item = $140

sales tax rate = 7.5%

sales tax amount = sales tax rate of CP

=7.5% of CP

= 7.5/100 * $140

=$1050/100

=$10.5

total cost with tax = CP + tax rate

=$140 + $10.5

=$150.5

the average length of string a and string d is 10x cm. the average length of string b and string c is 8x cm . the average length of strings b , c , d is 6x cm . find the length of string a in terms of x

Answers

Answer:

[tex]a = 18x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(a + d) = 10x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(b + c) = 8x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3}(b + c+d) = 6x[/tex]

Required

The value of (a)

We have:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(a + d) = 10x[/tex] --- multiply by 2

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(b + c) = 8x[/tex] --- multiply by 2

[tex]\frac{1}{3}(b + c+d) = 6x[/tex] --- multiply by 3

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(a + d) = 10x[/tex]

[tex]a + d = 20x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{2}(b + c) = 8x[/tex]

[tex]b + c = 16x[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1}{3}(b + c+d) = 6x[/tex]

[tex]b + c + d= 18x[/tex]

Substitute [tex]b + c = 16x[/tex] in [tex]b + c + d= 18x[/tex]

[tex]16x + d = 18x[/tex]

Solve for d

[tex]d = 18x - 16x[/tex]

[tex]d = 2x[/tex]

Substitute [tex]d = 2x[/tex] in [tex]a + d = 20x[/tex]

[tex]a + 2x = 20x[/tex]

Solve for (a)

[tex]a = 20x - 2x[/tex]

[tex]a = 18x[/tex]
