if you can just give me the rules i'll be able to find the answer @jigglypuff314

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

You mean like these? :) sin(angle) = opposite / hypotenuse cos(angle) = adjacent / hypotenuse tan(angle) = opposite / adjacent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and yes

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

Correct! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay i got around 2 more i need help with is it ok if you help me with them if not i understannd

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

lol of course I'll help ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and thank you

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

hmmm I haven't done dialations in a while, but I think a dialation of 2 means that you multiply each side length by 2 so 22 times 2 = and 5 times 2 = and that should make your fraction :)

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

yes, I think so :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok and do i need to simplify this?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

hmmm... I'm not entirely sure... :/ my way of doing it might not have been correct, sorry, you might want to check it with someone else?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you still want to answer my last question?

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

Sure :) I can try ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok here you go

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

The sin, cos, and tan rules can only be used when one of the angles in the triangle is 90 degrees right? so thinking in the reverse idea from sin(30) = 1/2 you can draw it to be like |dw:1397247089570:dw|

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

Correct! :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

really?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you explain why because i think i did it wrong that is why i am shocked

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

They want you to get the cos of something that something can't be the 90 degree angle so that leaves just the 30 or 60 degree angles then if you wanted to get the cos(30) you would have gotten a weird radical from pythagorean theorem but if you chose cos(60) you see that adj would then be 1 and hyp would be 2 |dw:1397247493999:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh nvm i did it the same way i'm so proud of my self and happy you helped me

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

I'm glad I could help ^_^ you're doing a great job! <3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):

Sorry about that, and You're Welcome :P ^_^

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no problem at least you helped me understand it better and that is what matters

jigglypuff314 (jigglypuff314):
