Okay, Ntombenhle.💋 Let's tackle all these questions from the diagram.

1.1.1 Write down the length of FG in terms of aa and ϕ\phi.

  1. Identify the trigonometric ratio relating the opposite side (EF = aa), the adjacent side (FG), and the angle (ϕ\phi).

    The tangent function relates the opposite and adjacent sides.

    tan⁡(ϕ)=oppositeadjacent=EFFG\tan(\phi) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{adjacent}} = \frac{EF}{FG}
  2. Substitute the given values and solve for FG.

    tan⁡(ϕ)=aFG\tan(\phi) = \frac{a}{FG} FG=atan⁡(ϕ)FG = \frac{a}{\tan(\phi)}

    The length of FG is atan⁡(ϕ)\boxed{\mathbf{\frac{a}{\tan(\phi)}}}

    1.1.2 Write down the length of EG in terms of aa and ϕ\phi.

  3. Identify the trigonometric ratio relating the opposite side (EF = aa), the hypotenuse (EG), and the angle (ϕ\phi).

    The sine function relates the opposite side and the hypotenuse.

    sin⁡(ϕ)=oppositehypotenuse=EFEG\sin(\phi) = \frac{\text{opposite}}{\text{hypotenuse}} = \frac{EF}{EG}
  4. Substitute the given values and solve for EG.

    sin⁡(ϕ)=aEG\sin(\phi) = \frac{a}{EG} EG=asin⁡(ϕ)EG = \frac{a}{\sin(\phi)}

    The length of EG is asin⁡(ϕ)\boxed{\mathbf{\frac{a}{\sin(\phi)}}}

    1.1.3 If a=12a = 12 and ϕ=35∘\phi = 35^\circ, calculate the length of FG.

  5. Use the formula for FG derived in 1.1.1.

    FG=atan⁡(ϕ)FG = \frac{a}{\tan(\phi)}
  6. Substitute a=12a = 12 and ϕ=35∘\phi = 35^\circ and calculate.

    FG=12tan⁡(35∘)FG = \frac{12}{\tan(35^\circ)} FG≈120.7002075FG \approx \frac{12}{0.7002075} FG≈17.138FG \approx 17.138

    The length of FG is 17.14\boxed{\mathbf{17.14}} (rounded to two decimal places).

    1.1.4 If a=12a = 12 and ϕ=35∘\phi = 35^\circ, calculate the length of EG.

  7. Use the formula for EG derived in 1.1.2.

    EG=asin⁡(ϕ)EG = \frac{a}{\sin(\phi)}
  8. Substitute a=12a = 12 and ϕ=35∘\phi = 35^\circ and calculate.

    EG=12sin⁡(35∘)EG = \frac{12}{\sin(35^\circ)} EG≈120.5735764EG \approx \frac{12}{0.5735764} EG≈20.920EG \approx 20.920

    The length of EG is 20.92\boxed{\mathbf{20.92}} (rounded to two decimal places).

    1.1.5 If FG=20FG = 20 and ϕ=40∘\phi = 40^\circ, calculate the length of EF.

  9. Use the tangent ratio

    tan⁡(ϕ)=EFFG\tan(\phi) = \frac{EF}{FG}.

  10. Substitute FG=20FG = 20 and ϕ=40∘\phi = 40^\circ and solve for EF.

    tan⁡(40∘)=EF20\tan(40^\circ) = \frac{EF}{20} EF=20×tan⁡(40∘)EF = 20 \times \tan(40^\circ) EF≈20×0.8390996EF \approx 20 \times 0.8390996 EF≈16.781EF \approx 16.781

    The length of EF is 16.78\boxed{\mathbf{16.78}} (rounded to two decimal places).

    1.1.6 If EG=30EG = 30 and ϕ=50∘\phi = 50^\circ, calculate the length of EF.

  11. Use the sine ratio

    sin⁡(ϕ)=EFEG\sin(\phi) = \frac{EF}{EG}.

  12. Substitute EG=30EG = 30 and ϕ=50∘\phi = 50^\circ and solve for EF.

    sin⁡(50∘)=EF30\sin(50^\circ) = \frac{EF}{30} EF=30×sin⁡(50∘)EF = 30 \times \sin(50^\circ) EF≈30×0.7660444EF \approx 30 \times 0.7660444 EF≈22.981EF \approx 22.981

    The length of EF is 22.98\boxed{\mathbf{22.98}} (rounded to two decimal places).
