Answer:
Part 1 d/a = a/f
d/b = b/c
e/c = c/f
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are similar.
This is about equal proportion. Look at the relationship between the short leg to the hypotenuse, short leg to long leg, and long leg to hypotenuse.
Part 2:
78
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate x, then substitute to get the lengths of the sides. Given equal angles, the two sides are equal.
5x –19 = 2x +11
3x = 30
x= 10
5(10) –19 = 31
2(10) + 11 = 31
Add the three sides: 31 +31 +16 = 78
Part 3:
Sin A= Cos B. both are a/b
Sin C= Cos A both are c/b
Sin C = c/b
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember S=o/h, C=a/h , T=o/h
Look at the relationship of the sides to the angles given. If the sides match, the statement is true.
Sine of angle A is side a to side b. This is opposite/hypotenuse
Cosine of angle B is side a to side b This is adjacent/hypotenuse.
The lengths a and b are used in both. The hypotenuse don't change, but whether a side is considered an opposite or an adjacent depends on which angle you are looking at.
This can be confusing, but the more you practice, the easier it gets.
I hope this helps!
