Concept explainers

Ratios

A ratio is a comparison between two numbers of the same kind. It represents how many times one number contains another. It also represents how small or large one number is compared to the other.

Trigonometric Ratios

Trigonometric ratios give values of trigonometric functions. It always deals with triangles that have one angle measuring 90 degrees. These triangles are right-angled. We take the ratio of sides of these triangles.

Question

Figure in plane geometry formed by two rays or lines that share a common endpoint, called the vertex. The angle is measured in degrees using a protractor. The different types of angles are acute, obtuse, right, straight, and reflex.

He has learned that there is a new space shuttle under development that can travel at a speed of 28,000 kilometers per hour. Brayden is trying to determine how long in days it would take a space crew on this new shuttle to reach Pluto. His work is below. Note: 1 day = 24 hours. Step 1: Distance = RatexTime Step 2: time=dis tan ce rate 5.9x10° 2.8x104 Step 3: time = Step 4: time = 2.11 x 1013 hours 2.11x 103 hours I day 24 hours Step 5: time = 1 Step 6: time = 8.792 x 10" days Part A: Identify the step where Brayden made his error and explain what he did wrong.

Captain Ri Jyeong Hyeok and Yoon Se Ri had an argument at the border between North and South Korea. In his anger, Captain Ri ran 36° west of north from their location at a speed of 8kph. After 2 hours, Yoon Se Ri decided to follow Captain Ri by bike, but mistakenly went at a different direction 40° east of north. If Yoon Se Ri biked at 15kph, how long will it take for her to be directly east of Captain Ri?
