1. Given any triangle ABC with sides BC=a, AC=b and AB=c, the following are true :

     i) the larger the angle, the larger the side in front of it, and the other way around as well. (Sine Law) Let a=20 in, then the largest angle is angle A.

      ii) Given the measures of the sides of a triangle. Then the cosines of any of the angles can be found by the following formula:

       a^{2}=b ^{2}+c ^{2}-2bc(cosA)

2.

20^{2}=9 ^{2}+13 ^{2}-2*9*13(cosA)

400=81+169-234(cosA)   150=-234(cosA)

cosA=150/-234= -0.641

3. m(A) = Arccos(-0.641)≈130°,

4. Remark: We calculate Arccos with a scientific calculator or computer software unless it is one of the well known values, ex Arccos(0.5)=60°, Arccos(-0.5)=120° etc

Answer:

Measurement of this triangle's largest angle = 129.87°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = 9 in, b = 13 in and c = 20 in

We have cosine rule cosA=\frac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}

    cosA=\frac{13^2+20^2-9^2}{2\times 13\times 20}=0.938\\\\A=20.21^0\\\\cosB=\frac{9^2+20^2-13^2}{2\times 9\times 20}=0.867\\\\B=29.93^0\\\\cosC=\frac{9^2+13^2-20^2}{2\times 9\times 13}=-0.641\\\\C=129.87^0\\\\

Measurement of this triangle's largest angle = 129.87°

So sorry to ask another question but I need some help-
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

14x + 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The lengths of three sides of a triangle are 5x + 9 feet, 2x + 14 feet, and 7x feet.

The perimeter of a triangle: the sum of all of its sides.

5x + 9 + 2x + 14 + 7x

14x + 23

It's the expression of the perimeter of the triangle. Once you will be asked to find x, you'll probably be given the exact perimeter of the triangle.

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

28, 32, 36

Step-by-step explanation:

If you multiply each 7, 8, and 9 by 4 you get 28, 32, and 36. The sum of those numbers is 96.

The diameter of a circle is 26 millimeters. What is the circle's circumference?
Shkiper50 [21]

Step-by-step explanation: the answer for this question should be 81.64 because to find the circumference you need to know the circumference formulas which is  C=TT times d or          C= 2 times TT times r.

C= 3.14 times 26          C= 2 times 3.14 times 13

                                       C= 81.64

C= 81.64

so the answer is 81.64 for the circle's circumference so hopefully that is the correct answer and have a great day
