Answer:
Answer A
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle A = 180 - 26 - 90 (90 right angle)
The cosine of an angle is equal to the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse.
cos ( A)= adj/hyp
Cos (26) = a / 13
a = 13* Cos (26)
a= 11.7
Find the last side of the triangle using the Pythagorean theorem.
======================================================
Explanation:
Count the number of times you divide by two and we have five occurrences of this. So there five rounds overall.
To get the total number of games played, we add up the quotients
16+8+4+2+1 = 31
----------------
Or as a shortcut we can simply subtract off 1 since 1+2+4+...+2^n = 2^(n+1)-1
We can write that rule as
which is equivalent to
