Which statements are true about triangle QRS?

Select
three options.

The side opposite <Q is RS

The hypothenuse is QR

The side adjacent to <Q is QS

Step-by-step explanation:

Side RS is directly opposite <Q. The first statement provided in the options is correct.

The side that is opposite to <R is QS. The second statement in the options is not correct.

The longer leg of a right triangle is always the hypotenuse. Side QR in ∆QRS is the hypotenuse. The third statement given in the options is correct.

The side adjacent to <R is not SQ. RS is the side adjacent to <R. The fourth statement in the given options is not correct.

Side QS is adjacent to <Q. The fifth option is correct.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
