OpenStudy (abbles):

I got 63.28... is that correct?

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

:)

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

u are right .

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

u have used tangent 49 degrees right ?

OpenStudy (abbles):

yep, that would be 1.15

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

tan 49 = x/55

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

x=55*tan 49

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

x=63.28

OpenStudy (abbles):

wait.. now I'm getting 63.25

OpenStudy (abbles):

1.15 times 55 = 63.25

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

63.2 is fine.

OpenStudy (abbles):

but if I multiply 1.15036840722 which is the whole version by 55, I get 63.7

OpenStudy (abbles):

I have to round to the hundredth... do you know which one I should use?

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

63 and any number after decimal is fine.

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

63.25=1.15*55

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

63.25 is final answer .

OpenStudy (abbles):

okay thanks :)

OpenStudy (cggurumanjunath):

Anytime. :)

OpenStudy (abbles):
