Answer:
In bold below.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The largest angle is opposite the largest side.
So by the Cosine Rule:
8^2 = 4^2 + 6^2 - 2*4*6 cos x
cos x = (8^2 - 4^2 - 6^2) / (-2*4* 6)
= -0.25.
x = 104.48 degrees.
(b) Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 4 * 6 sin 104.48
= 11.62
= 3 √15.
(c) The shortest altitude will have the longest sides as the base.
Area = 1/2 * altitude * base
3√15 = 1/2 * 8 * a
a = 3√15 / 4 cm
= 0.75√15 cm.
Answer:
$14.28
Step-by-step explanation:
If the CD is $17 and is have a 20% off then you multiply .20 and 17 to get the amount that is off. Subtract that answer from 17 and you should get $13.60. That is the cost of the CD WITHOUT tax. To apply the tax, you multiply the cost and 0.05 (5%) to get 0.68. 0.68 is the tax cost. To get the entire cost of the CD, you add 0.68 (tax) and price (13.60) and get $14.28.
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
Use Pythagorean Theorem
If you are looking for leg given the other sides of the right triangle: just do bigger square minus small square
and take square root
so 29^2 - 20^2
And then sqrt it!
sqrt(29^2-20^2)
21
What you can do is split one of the binomials and then apply the distributive property if f(x) = (x + 3)(x -2) split the 1st binomial f(x) = x(x -2) + 3(x -2) now apply the distributive property to get
f(x)=x2−2x+3x−6
which simplifies to
f(x)=x2+x−6
Answer:
We know that our world is in 3 dimensions i.e. there are three directions and so, three co-ordinates are required.
Now, if we have to find a position of an object lying on a flat surface, this means that there are only two directions and so, two co-ordinates are needed.
So, we can define the domain ( xy-axis ) in such a way that there are two axis - horizontal where right area have positive values & left area has negative values and vertical where upward side have positive values & downward side has negative values.
For e.g. if we want to find the position of a pen on the table. We will make our own xy-axis and see in which quadrant the pen lies.
Let us say that the pen lies at (2,3), this means that the position of pen is in the first quadrant or it is 2 units to the right of y-axis and 3 units up to the x-axis.
This way we can see that two directions are sufficient to find the position of an object placed on a flat surface.
