Tyson is 6 feet 2 inches tall. There are 2.54 centimeters in 1 inch. What is Tyson's height in centimeters?
A.187.96 cm
B.20.32 cm
C.15.78 cm
D.177.80 cm

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.

to complete this square you have to rotate about the origin 270 degrees clockwise.

the answer is b to that quesiton

1. which statement below is true for hyperbolic geometry?

answer: d  

the sum of the measures of the angles in a triangle is always less than 180 degrees.

2. identify the statement that is true in spherical geometry.

answer: d  

the sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is greater than 180.

3. what can be said about the vertices of an equilateral triangle drawn in poincaré’s system?

answer: b  

the vertices are equidistant from the center of the circle.

4. satellites sputnik, yeltsin, and plekov often temporarily line up in order in a great circle. the circumference of the earth is 24,900 miles, and the satellites orbit at about 150 miles above the surface. if, while in a great circle, sputnik is 9,000 miles from yeltsin, and yeltsin is 10,500 miles from plekov, how far apart are sputnik and plekov?

answer: b  

6,342 miles

5. identify the statement that is true in spherical geometry.

answer: d  

two distinct lines intersect in two points.
