Suppose a triangle has sides a, b, and c and the angle opposite the side of length a is acute what must be true?

Mathematics

ANTONII [103]2 years ago
4 0

The true statement about the triangle is (a) b^2 + c^2 > a^2

<h3>How to determine the true inequality?</h3>

The sides are given as:

a, b and c

The angle opposite of side length a is an acute angle

The above means that:

The side a is the longest side of the triangle.

The Pythagoras theorem states that:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2

Since the triangle is not a right triangle, and the angle opposite a is acute.

Then it means that the square of a is less than the sum of squares of other sides.

This gives

a^2 < b^2 + c^2

Rewrite as:

b^2 + c^2 > a^2

Hence, the true statement about the triangle is (a) b^2 + c^2 > a^2

HURRY !!
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

B. In step 2, marquis should have interpreted the results as x _< - 9.2, which means that x is less than or equal to -9.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 is correct.

Step 2.

-9.2 >= x

Subtract x from both sides.

-x - 9.2 >= 0

Add 9.2 to both sides.

-x >= 9.2

Divide both sides by -1. When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality, the inequality sign changes direction.

x <= -9.2

The first error is in Step 2.

Answer:

B. In step 2, marquis should have interpreted the results as x _< - 9.2, which means that x is less than or equal to -9.2

A ferry operator takes tourists to an island.
Oksanka [162]

The fare of $(20 - 2.5) = $17.5 will maximize the total fare.

<h3>What is Differentiation?</h3>

Differentiation means the rate of change of one quantity with respect to another. The speed is calculated as the rate of change of distance with respect to time.

Here, The operator for a round-trip fare of $20, carries an average of 500 people per day.

It is estimated that 20 fewer people will take the trip, for each $1 increase in fare.

for $x  increase in fare, 20x less people will take the trip and at that time the total fare F is given by  

f(x) =(20 + x)(500 - 20x)

f (x) = 10000 + 100x - 20x²

For f(x) to be maximum, the condition is dy/dx = 0

 100 - 40x = 0

⇒ x = 2.5  

Thus, the fare of $(20 - 2.5) = $17.5 will maximize the total fare.

What is the value of x?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180, substitute values

9x + 8 + 8x + 2 = 180, that is

17x + 10 = 180 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

17x = 170 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 10
