Solve the question sin(x - 20) = cos(42) for x, where 0 , x , 90.62222868

1 answer:

5 0

You need to use the identity
cos(90-u)=sin(u)
if u=x-20
cos(90-x+20)=sin(x-20)
cos(110-x)=sin(x-20)
substituting in the original function
cos(110-x)=cos(42)
for the functions to be equal there input must be equal
110-x=42
x=68

Which of these is equal to ⅔ × ¾ × ⅗?

Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Just multiply all of the numerators (top numbers) and then multiple all of the denominators (bottom numbers)

2/3x3/4x3/5 would be 18/60 Then take any number that is a factor to both 18 and 60 and divide both numbers by that factor. I could use 2 or 3 or 6 because both 18 and 60 is divisible by any of these numbers. I will choose 3. I will divide the top and bottom of 18/60 by 3 to get 6/20, now I will divide the top and bottom of that number by 2 to get 3/10

What is the value of "h"?

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

h = 76

Step-by-step explanation:

2 + h - 48 = 30

h + 2 - 48 = 30

h - 46 = 30

h - 46 + 46 = 30 + 46

h = 76

If the length of AO is double the length of CO, the length of BO is?

andreev551 [17]

BO is double that of DO. In other words, BO is two times longer than DO. The answer is choice B

For example, if DO were 3 units long, then BO would be 6 units long (2*3 = 6). This works because the triangles DCO and BAO are similar triangles. The corresponding sides are in the same ratio or proportion to one another. The larger triangle (BAO) has sides that are twice as long as the smaller triangle's (DCO) corresponding sides.

Side note: we can prove the triangles to be similar using the AA (angle angle) similarity theorem. The first pair of angles are the vertical angles DOC and BOA which are congruent to each other.The second pair is CDB and ABD which are congruent by the alternate interior angle theorem.
