Answer:

m∠2 = 18°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles: two angles that sum to 90°

⇒ m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°

⇒ 72° + m∠2 = 90°

⇒ m∠2 = 90° - 72°

⇒ m∠2 = 18°

The required value of is m∠2 = 18°.

Given that,

First complementary adjacent angel m∠1 = 72°

We have to find,

Second complementary adjacent angle m∠2.

According to the question,

In geometry, the two angles are said to be complementary angles if they add up to 90 degrees.

Such as, m∠1 + m∠2 = 90°.

Where, m∠1 = 72°

Putting the value of m∠1 = 72° in the equation,

72° + m∠2 = 90°

m∠2 = 90° - 72°

m∠2 = 18°

Hence, The required value of is m∠2 = 18°.

So in the thing p=m/v to find m would you times v by p?

EastWind [94]

M = mass

p = density

v = volume

Yes, to find m it would be m = pv.

To find v that would be m/p.

. A triangle has side lengths of 8, 7, and 14. To the nearest tenth of a degree find the measure of the angle opposite the side

4vir4ik [10]

Given:

The measure of three sides of a triangle are 8, 7 and 14.

To find:

The measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8.

Solution:

According to the Law of Cosine:

$\cos A=\dfrac{b^2+c^2-a^2}{2bc}$

Let a=8, b=7 and c=14, then by using Law of Cosine, we get

$\cos A=\dfrac{7^2+14^2-8^2}{2(7)(14)}$

$\cos A=\dfrac{49+196-64}{196}$

$\cos A=\dfrac{181}{196}$

Taking cos inverse on both sides.

$A=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{181}{196}$

$A=22.561328$

$A\approx 22.6$

Therefore, the measure of the angle opposite the side of length 8 is 22.6 degrees.

An arithmetic sequence begins as follows: a1=13 a2=19 Which of the following gives the definition of its nth term?

Otrada [13]

Answer:

the nth term of the sequence is $a_n=6n+7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An arithmetic sequence begins as follows: $a_1=13, a_2=19$

To find : Which of the following gives the definition of its nth term?

Solution :

The nth term of the A.P is $a_n=a+(n-1)d$

The first term is $a=a_1=13$

The common difference is $d=a_2-a_1$

$d=19-13=6$

Substitute in the formula,

$a_n=13+(n-1)6$

$a_n=13+6n-6$

$a_n=6n+7$

Therefore, the nth term of the sequence is $a_n=6n+7$

Solve for x in the equation x2+2x+1=17

agasfer [191]

The left side can be written as a square. We can take the square root, then subtract 1.

... (x +1)² = 17

... x +1 = ±√17

... x = -1 ±√17
