Answer:

cos(a+b)≈0.507

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there, in Quadrant I both sine and cosine functions are positive.

This cos (a+b) being a Classical Trigonometrical Identity, the product of the sum between two cosines equals the product of two cosines minus the product of two sines.

But we need to find the value of a and b, so that we can go on. Calculate the arccosine and arcsine function respectively is mandatory

cos(a+b)=cosa*cosb-sena*senb\\ cos(a+b)=cosa*\frac{5}{13} -\frac{4}{5}*senb\\ a=arcsin(\frac{5}{13})\\a=22.61\\b=arccos(\frac{4}{5})\\b=36.86\\ 5/13=0.38\\4/5=0.8\\cos(a+b)=cos(22.61)*cos(36.86) -sen(22.61)*sen(36.86)\\ cos (a+b)=0.507

First let's find the angles a and b.

 We have then:
 sin a = 4/5
 a = Asin (4/5)
 a = 53.13 degrees.

 cos b = 5/13
 b = Acos5 / 13
 b = 67.38 degrees.

 We now calculate cos (a + b). To do this, we replace the previously found values:
 cos ((53.13) + (67.38)) = - 0.507688738
 Answer: 
 -0.507688738
 Note: there is another way to solve the problem using trigonometric identities.

I need to find the area of the shaded region, but I need detailed steps
olasank [31]
The shaded region is a parallelogram.

The formula for the area of any parallelogram is A=bh.

The base of the parallelogram is 2 meters long (given).

The height of the parallelogram is 9 meters (do not be fooled by the unnecessary information of 14 meters)
The height is 9 meters because the height has to be perpendicular to the base. Thus, the side length must be 9 meters.

Multiply them together.

2 \times 9 = 18

The area of the parallelogram is 18 square meters.
