In ΔXYZ measure of angle Y is 90o. If sec X = 17/8, and XY = 0.8 cm, then what is the length (in cm) of side XZ?1). 1.72). 1.53). 24). 2.5

Answer»

GIVEN, ∠Y = 90°, sec X = 17/8

⇒ Sec x = hypotenuse/base = XZ/XY = 17/8

If XY = 0.8

⇒ 8 unit = 0.8

⇒ 1 unit = 0.1

⇒ (XZ) = 17 unit = 1.7

Therefore length of XZ is 1.7 cm
