The angle the 14 foot long wire must make with the gound is approximately 51 degrees.

<h3>What is a right angle triangle?</h3>

A right angle triangle is a triangle that has one of its sides as 90 degrees. The situation forms two right angle triangle.

Using cosine law,

17² = 14² + 22² - 2 × 14 × 22 cos C

289 - 196 - 484 = -616 cos C

-391 = -616 cos C

divide both sides by -616

cos C = -391  / -616

cos C = 0.63474025974

C = cos⁻¹ 0.63474025974

C = 50.59929658

C = 51 degrees.

Therefore, the angle the 14 foot long wire must make with the gound is approximately 51 degrees.

Point R lies on the directed line segment from L (-8,-10) to M (4,-2) and partitions the segment in the ratio 3 to 5. What are t
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

R = (- 3.5, - 7 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the Section formula

x_{R} = \frac{3(4)+5(-8)}{3+5} = \frac{12-40}{8} = \frac{-28}{8} = - 3.5

y_{R} = \frac{3(-2)+5(-10)}{3+5} = \frac{-6-50}{8} = \frac{-56}{8} = - 7

Thus coordinates of R = (- 3.5, - 7 )
