Find the angle of XYZ give your answer to 1 decimal place

66.4°

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the angle XYZ, we are to use sine rule. For this, we have to first find ∠Z.

Given that: ∠X = 90° (right angle), XY = 6 cm, YZ = 15 cm. Hence:

∠X + ∠Y + ∠Z = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

90 + ∠Y + 23.6 = 180

113.6 + ∠Y = 180

∠Y = 180 - 113.6

∠Y = 66.4°

∠Y = ∠XYZ = 66.4°

the direct variation says that:

then the equation is of the form is given by:

            where k is the constant variation.

from the given table:

consider any value of x and m(x)=y

x = 2 and m(x)=y = 3

substitute these value in [1]; we have;

divide both sides by 2 we get;

⇒

check:

put x = -1 and m(x) = -1.5

substitute in the equation:

-1.5 = -1.5                   true

therefore, the function m(x) represents a direct variation
