Dude so smart i was already breaking out the angles and testing everything out
This is the worst way to go about doing it, because you should never assume a drawing is made to scale unless it is specifically marked as such. A protractor would be useless if the drawing isn’t to scale.
I meant more like trying to use cos tan sin and the pythogoras thing not actually measuring it by hand haha
Thanks a lot
Well the drawing is wrong. I measured it with a ruler and it should be 9
OP sneakily making Lemmy do their homework, well played.
Jesus.
Jesus is always the answer
making the BOLD ASSUMPTION that the angle of the arch is 90deg (the bottom right corner of your diagram), then the dashed lines leads to the value of the bold line.
If the original assumption is correct, then the answer is 15.
