Tarantulas are 5.9 centimeters longer.
12x²-8x-15 should be your answer
Jim has 27.5 minutes left to get to the airport.
See the picture attached to better understand the problem
we know that
in the right triangle ABC
cos A=AC/AB
cos A=1/3
so
1/3=AC/AB----->AB=3*AC-----> square----> AB²=9*AC²----> equation 1
applying the Pythagoras Theorem
BC²+AC²=AB²-----> 2²+AC²=AB²---> 4+AC²=AB²----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
4+AC²=9*AC²----> 8*AC²=4----> AC²=1/2----> AC=√2/2
so
AB²=9*AC²----> AB²=9*(√2/2)²----> AB=(3√2)/2
the answer isthe hypotenuse is (3√2)/2
The correct answer is 0,10
