<h3>Answer: 37 degrees</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection. The angle of light coming in is the same as the angle of light bouncing out. Each angle is made with the dashed line as the diagram shows.

So angle RMI = 106 is bisected, i.e. divided in half, to get

Angle RMN = 53
Angle NMI = 53

since 106/2 = 53

Then notice that the horizontal dashed line is perpendicular to the vertical mirror. This means angle NMJ is a 90 degree angle and,

angle RMJ = (angle NMJ) - (angle RMN)

angle RMJ = 90 - 53

angle RMJ = 37 degrees

----------

In short: divide 106 in half to get 53, then subtract it from 90

If sinA=√3-1/2√2,then prove that cos2A=√3/2 prove that

Ivan

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are given that the value of sinA is √3-1/2√2 , and we need to prove that the value of cos2A is √3/2 .

Given :-

• $\sf\implies sinA =\dfrac{\sqrt3-1}{2\sqrt2}$

To Prove :-

• $\sf\implies cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}$

Proof :-

We know that ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - 2sin^2A$

Therefore , here substituting the value of sinA , we have ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - 2\bigg( \dfrac{\sqrt3-1}{2\sqrt2}\bigg)^2$

Simplify the whole square ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 -2\times \dfrac{ 3 +1-2\sqrt3}{8}$

Add the numbers in numerator ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1-2\times \dfrac{4-2\sqrt3}{8}$

Multiply it by 2 ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 - \dfrac{ 4-2\sqrt3}{4}$

Take out 2 common from the numerator ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1-\dfrac{2(2-\sqrt3)}{4}$

Simplify ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = 1 -\dfrac{ 2-\sqrt3}{2}$

Subtract the numbers ,

$\sf\implies cos2A = \dfrac{ 2-2+\sqrt3}{2}$

Simplify,

$\sf\implies \boxed{\pink{\sf cos2A =\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2}} }$

Hence Proved !

What is the definition of “i”? What do we use it for? Demonstrate with an example of your own.

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The letter "i" is used to signify that a number is an imaginary number.

Step-by-step explanation:

An imaginary number is one that gives a negative result when squared. This differs from when you square real numbers where you always get a positive result. For example:

i = √-1

Imaginary numbers can be especially useful when trying to find the square root of a real negative number such as -16. Normally we cannot find the square root of -16 but through the use of imaginary numbers we can:

√-16 = 4i

~Hope this helps!~

Solve the inequality 3u+3(u+1)>2u+7 and write the solution in interval notation.

strojnjashka [21]

Given:

The given inequality is $3u+3(u+1)>2u+7$

We need to determine the solution of the inequality in interval notation.

Solution of the inequality:

The solution of the inequality can be determined by simplifying the inequality.

Thus, we have,

$3u+3u+3>2u+7$

$6u+3>2u+7$

Subtracting both sides by 3, we get;

$6 u>2 u+4$

Subtracting both sides by 2u, we have;

$4 u>4$

Dividing both sides by 4, we get;

$u>1$

Writing it in interval notation, we get;

$(1, \infty)$

Thus, the solution of the inequality is $(1, \infty)$

What is 21000 rounded to the nearest ten thousand

denpristay [2]

A number rounded to the nearest 10000, means that the last four digits of that number (on the left of the decimal point) are 0.
However, if the fourth-last digit to the left of the decimal point is 5 or greater, the number to the left of that is rounded to 1 number higher. For example, if you were rounding 145293 to the nearest 10000, it would be 150000.

However, the fourth-last digit to the left of the decimal point in this case is 1.
Therefore, 21000 rounded to the nearest 10000 is 20000.
