Use triangle ABC drawn below & only the sides labeled. Find the side of length AB in terms of side a, side b & angle C o

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

$AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The above triangle

Required

Solve for AB in terms of a, b and angle C

Considering right angled triangle BOC where O is the point between b-x and x

From BOC, we have that:

$Sin\ C = \frac{h}{a}$

Make h the subject:

$h = aSin\ C$

Also, in BOC (Using Pythagoras)

$a^2 = h^2 + x^2$

Make $x^2$ the subject

$x^2 = a^2 - h^2$

Substitute $aSin\ C$ for h

$x^2 = a^2 - h^2$ becomes

$x^2 = a^2 - (aSin\ C)^2$

$x^2 = a^2 - a^2Sin^2\ C$

Factorize

$x^2 = a^2 (1 - Sin^2\ C)$

In trigonometry:

$Cos^2C = 1-Sin^2C$

So, we have that:

$x^2 = a^2 Cos^2\ C$

Take square roots of both sides

$x= aCos\ C$

In triangle BOA, applying Pythagoras theorem, we have that:

$AB^2 = h^2 + (b-x)^2$

Open bracket

$AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

Substitute $x= aCos\ C$ and $h = aSin\ C$ in $AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

$AB^2 = h^2 + b^2-2bx+x^2$

$AB^2 = (aSin\ C)^2 + b^2-2b(aCos\ C)+(aCos\ C)^2$

Open Bracket

$AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C+a^2Cos^2\ C$

Reorder

$AB^2 = a^2Sin^2\ C +a^2Cos^2\ C + b^2-2abCos\ C$

Factorize:

$AB^2 = a^2(Sin^2\ C +Cos^2\ C) + b^2-2abCos\ C$

In trigonometry:

$Sin^2C + Cos^2 = 1$

So, we have that:

$AB^2 = a^2 * 1 + b^2-2abCos\ C$

$AB^2 = a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C$

Take square roots of both sides

$AB = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2-2abCos\ C}$

a towns population has been decreasing at a constant rate. In 2007 the population was 5100. by 2011 the population had dropped t

Gelneren [198K]

75, because 300 (5100-4800) divided by 4 ( 2007-2011) is 75. The towns population decreased at a constant rate of 75.

Solve the equation: 7x = 42. <br> A. x = 6<br> B. x = – 6<br> C. x = 7<br> D. x = – 7

OlgaM077 [116]

If you would like to solve the equation 7 * x = 42, you can calculate this using the following step:

7 * x = 42 /7
x = 42 / 7
x = 6

The correct result would be A. x = 6.
