Question

the question i have is below v

Answer 1

the question?

Answer 2

@Juicstice

Answer 3

tan is opposite/adjacent

Answer 4

can u please show me how to do it, im failing my class and i need to hurry up and finish

Answer 5

so the side OPPOSITE of A is 8 the side ADJACENT to A is 15

Answer 6

but the choices are
8/15
15/8
17/8
8/17

Answer 7

it is 8/15

Answer 8

thank you so much!!
can i show you another one?

Answer 9

yes

Answer 10

the formula for this is a little complicated, but I can show you

Answer 11

no it really isn't

okay so we know 2 angles 70 and 90

add them together
70+90=160

180-160=20

so now you know all three sides

the formula is

a/sinA=b/sinB=c/sinC
lower case is side
upper case is angle

Answer 12

Juicstice, it's a right triangle. ;-;

Answer 13

set up the proportion like this

x/sin(70)=4/sin(20)

Answer 14

I know

Answer 15

did I do something wrong?

Answer 16

the choices are
2.7
11.0
.7
4.9

Answer 17

don't need all that happiness it is a right triangle
\[\tan(70)=\frac{x}{4}\iff x=4\tan(70)\] and a calculator

Answer 18

Yeah, you just use tangent , again. ^^^

Answer 19

okay, so I was making it a little more complicated

Answer 20

okay im confused so what do i do with 4tan(70)

Answer 21

you solve for x

Answer 22

just plug it into a calculator

Answer 23

i got 10.98 which rounds to 11.0, thanks to all of you!

Answer 24

I got 4.88

Answer 25

which rounds to 4.9

Answer 26

i have another question tho

Answer 27

wait really? i plugged it into the calculator tho?

Answer 28

I think you plugged it in wrong

Answer 29

i plugged 4 then the tan sign then 70?

Answer 30

so did I, I'l do it agin to make sure thug

Answer 31

did it look like 4tan(70)
that would be how you put it in

Answer 32

no it actually looked like 4xtan(70)

Answer 33

I still got the same answer even when putting in the x

Answer 34

70 tan * 4 = 11

Answer 35

i got 10.98 though

Answer 36

which rounds to 11

Answer 37

yes then to the nearest tenth

Answer 38

but that isn't the answer it's 4.9 trust me

Answer 39

but what if i get it wrong

Answer 40

70tan doesn't work it has to be tan(70)

Answer 41

i just checked with googles calculator and i got 4.88 so i guess its is 4.9, thanks for helping me @Juicstice

Answer 42

okay, I'm going to the next question

Answer 43

so we are using tan again

tan is opposite/adjacent
12/35

so then tan(angle that is missing) =.342

since that doesn't solve for the angle need to make it solve for it

angle that is missing= inverse tan(.342)

Answer 44

the choices are
71.1
18.9
29.2
90

Answer 45

would be 18.9

Answer 46

thank you!!!!!! @triciaal

Answer 47

It was sin not tan

Answer 48

I messed up with that

Answer 49

thanks anyways (: @Juicstice
