Answer to Problem 14PPS

The value of x is 13.50m and the value of y is 23.4 m

Explanation of Solution

Given:

Pre-Algebra, Student Edition, Chapter 10.6, Problem 14PPS , additional homework tip  1

Calculation:

Pre-Algebra, Student Edition, Chapter 10.6, Problem 14PPS , additional homework tip  2

In a right angled triangle with angle measures of 30°, 60° & 90° and smaller leg equal to a , The longer leg is given by a3 and the hypotenuse will be given by the term 2a .

Pre-Algebra, Student Edition, Chapter 10.6, Problem 14PPS , additional homework tip  3

In the current problem, the triangle is a 30°-60°-90°triangle with hypotenuse being equal to 27 m.

Let the smaller leg be x.

The hypotenuse is equal 2x

Thus, from question, the smaller leg x is

2x=27mx=13.50m (Smaller leg x)

The longer leg is given by smallerleg*3m

Keeping values,

Longer leg,

  y=13.50*1.732m=23.4 m

The longer leg (y) will be given by 23.4 m

Conclusion:

Therefore, the value of x is 13.50m and the value of y is 23.4 m
