What is the length of EF?

Mathematics
1 answer:
pantera1 [17]1 year ago
7 0

Answer:

  (a)  3.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The Law of Sines can be used to find a missing side length in a triangle where the angles are known and at least one side is given. It tells you the ratio of side lengths is equal to the ratio of the sines of their opposite angles. In effect, longer sides are opposite larger angles.

__

<h3>compare angles</h3>

The given side length (DE=3) is opposite given angle F=50°. The unknown side length EF is opposite larger angle D=75°.

<h3>compare sides</h3>

Since the unknown side is opposite a larger angle than the other angle given, the length of the unknown side will be longer than the side given.

  EF > DE

  EF > 3

Only one answer choice satisfies this inequality.

  EF = 3.8

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you want to do the actual computation, we have ...

  EF/sin(D) = DE/sin(F)

  EF = DE·sin(D)/sin(F) = 3·sin(75°)/sin(50°) ≈ 3.7828

  EF ≈ 3.8

Use the discriminant to determine the number and type of solutions for the following equation. 12x2 + 10x + 5 = 0
Paul [167]
Discriminant D is given by:
D=b²-4ac
Implication of discriminant is as follows:

D<0 two zeros that are complex conjugate
D=0 one real zero of multiplicity 2
D>0 two distinct real zers
D= (+ve perfet square)  two distinct rational zeros
From:
12x^2+10x+5=0
plugging in the equation we get:
10²-4×12×5
=100-240
=-140
thus
D<0

Answer is:
