|dw:1375310078912:dw|
something tells the picture will look a bit more descriptive :)
and since now you know how to take screenshots :)
I tried you said alt then printscreen right?
no alt needed, just the PrintScr button by itself paste in Paint, save to say .gif or .jpeg
I can't find the message that you told me
oh okay will do!
paste to Paint, crop anything you want in the picture, write any extra notes on it, save it and [Attach File]
my computer doesn't have paint, it was updated and has some artist type of painting but you cant paste anything to it
hmm, ok, any graphic app then
well, you should be able to in the app, start a new image and then do ctrl-v
alright I think I got it I'll attach in a minute :)
what about this, try this Start > Run > mspaint type that at the Run box
docx? whatever happened to .gif? or jpeg?
Do you need me to re save it?
:)
oh okay thanks, now what can I do to find the answer?
notice the triangles, they're similar, that means their angles and sides have a ratio relationship
on the bigger one, there are 2 angles, since they're both right-triangles one angle is 90 degrees, the other is 50.6 degrees so the missing internal angle will be?
39.4
degrees
yes, thus using ratio relationship, we can say that \(\bf \cfrac{39.4^o}{\theta}=\cfrac{14.3}{8.93}\) then just solve for \(\bf \theta\)
63.0929451288?
degrees
hmm, if you look at the picture, 63 degrees will make a bit wider than that so is smaller than that|dw:1375313160441:dw|
\(\bf \cfrac{39.4^o}{\theta}=\cfrac{14.3}{8.93} \implies \cfrac{39.4\times 8.93 }{14.3}=\theta\)
24.6043356643
:)
Great thanks sooo much !!! I have one more question on my hw and someone else tried to help me but I remained confused. I really just need the equation on how to solve it.:)
ok
Hey the website for my hw says that 24.6043356643 is incorrect
----> Answer in units of ◦ <---- so I gather it'd be a rounded up answer, of 25 or 24.6
you know is easier to use .jpeg or .gif over .docx :) but anyhow
oh sorry
this one?
yes
well, I see the rhombus I see the angle so, what's sought after?
Find the distance from A to B. Answer in units of cm
So what do I do next?
