Answer:

29.24 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometry of angles states that in a right angled triangle with sides a, b, c representing the opposite, adjacent and hypotenuse sides respectively, and an angle A° opposite the side a

Then,

Sin A° = a/c

Cos A° = b/c

Tan A° = a/b

Hence,

Sin 20° = 10/c

c = 10/Sin 20°

c = 29.24 centimeters

"If you switch to the late shift, you will receive a 10% wage increase." Great! I make $12.00 per hour now, and that extra 10% w
maxonik [38]

Answer:

$13.20/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

A 10% wage increase would amount to 0.10($12) = $1.20.  Adding this increase to the starting rate $12/hr results in $13.20/ hr.

A faster way in which to do this is shown below:

Wages after a 10% increase = (1.10)($12/hr) = $13.20/hr

A random sample of 15 observations from the first population revealed a sample mean of 350 and a sample standard deviation of 12
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have two random samples obtained from two different normal populations.

Sample 1

n₁= 15

X[bar]₁= 350

S₁= 12

Sample 2

n₂= 17

X[bar]₂= 342

S₂= 15

At α: 0.05 you need to obtain the p-value for testing variances for a one tailed test.

If the statistic hypotheses are:

H₀: σ₁² ≥ σ₂²

H₁: σ₁² < σ₂²

The statistic to test the variances ratio is the Stenecor's-F test. F_{H_0}=(\frac{S^2_1}{Sigma^2_1}) * (\frac{S^2_2}{Sigma^2_2} )~F_{n_1-1;n_2-1}

F_{H_0}= \frac{(12)^2}{(15)^2} * 1= 0.64

The p-value is:

P(F_{14;16}≤0.64)= 0.02

I hope it helps!

Which of these conditions might be true if polygons ABCD and KLMN are similar? The measures of corresponding angles of ABCD and
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:  The correct option is

(A) The measures of corresponding angles of ABCD and KLMN are equal, but the lengths of corresponding sides of ABCD are half those of KLMN.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the correct condition that might be true if polygons ABCD and KLMN are similar.

Two polygons are said to be SIMILAR if corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides are proportional.

So, options (B), (C), (D) and (E) are not correct because they contradict conditions of similarity.

In option (A), we have

The measures of corresponding angles of ABCD and KLMN are equal. So, they must be congruent.

And the lengths of corresponding sides of ABCD are half those of KLMN.

So, we can write

AB=\dfrac{1}{2}KL,~~BC=\dfrac{1}{2}LM,~~CD=\dfrac{1}{2}MN,~~AD=\dfrac{1}{2}KN\\\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{AB}{KL}=\dfrac{BC}{LM}=\dfrac{CD}{MN}=\dfrac{AD}{KN}=\dfrac{1}{2}.

Therefore, the corresponding sides are proportional.

Thus, option (A) is true if two polygons are similar.
