Answer:

Angle at vertex  A : 59.2° B: 61.7° C : 59.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First find the length of the vectors  

AB = B-A = (4-1, 3-0, 0-1) = (3, 3, -1)

AC = C-A = (1-1, 4-0, 3-1) = (0, 4, 2)

BC = C-B = (1-4, 4-3, 3-0) = (-3, 1, 3)

2. Find magnitude of the vectors

|AB| = √(3^2+3^2+〖(-1)〗^2 )=√19  

|AC| = √(0^2+4^2+2^2 )=2√5

|BC| = √(〖(-3)〗^2+1^2+3^2 )=√19

3. Find the angles between them

cos θ = (a.b)/(|a||b|) -----> θ = arc cos ((a.b)/(|a||b|))

AB, AC : θ =arc cos (AB.AC)/(|AB||AC|) = arc cos ( (3.0+3.4+ -1.2)/(√19  x 2√5)=  10/(2√95) ) =59.136, which is approximately 59.14°

AB, BC : θ =arc cos (AB.BC)/(|AB||BC|) = arc cos( (3.-3+3.1+ -1.3)/(√19  x √19)=  (-9)/19 ) = 118.27°

Because of the direction of BC is pointing relative to AB this is the angle outside the triangle, and we should find the supplementary angle.

180-118.27 = 61.73°

If we used –(BC) = CB in the formula (just negate the numerator) we would have gotten the correct angle on first try.

The 3rd angle should be what’s left after subtracting from 180°;

180-61.73-59.14 = 59.13 °

You can confirm using the formula again :

AC, BC : θ =arc cos (AC.BC)/(|AC||BC|) = arc cos( (0.-3+4.1+ 2.3)/(√19  x 2√5)=  10/(2√95) = 59.13°

Rounding everything up so they add up to 180 degrees we have Angle at vertex  A : 59.2° B: 61.7° C : 59.1°

That's not a squre
anyway, we use ratios
base:person to corner=28:8
height to height=x:5
so
28/8=x/5 becasue same ratio
28/8=14/4=7/2
7/2=x/5
multiply
35/10=2x/10
35=2x
divide 2
17.5=x

In countries that use the metric system of measurement, corn yields are sometimes expressed in quintals per hectare (q/ha) inste
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

Different countries have different metric system of measurement, but the metric system of measurement accepted all over the world is the international system of unit (SI unit)

1 quintal =  220.462 lbs and 1 bushel of corn = 56 lbs.

151 q/ha = (151 × 220.462) lbs/ha = 33289.762 lbs/ha

But 1 hectare = 2.471 acre, hence:

33289.762 lbs/ha = \frac{33289.762\ lbs}{1\ ha*\frac{2.471\ acre}{1 \ ha} } =13472.182\ lbs/acre

Since 1 bushel of corn = 56 lbs, hence:

13472.182\ lbs/acre=\frac{13472.182\ lbs*\frac{1\ bushels}{56\ lbs} }{acre}=240.6\ bushels/acre = 240.6 bu/ac

For a Margin of Error: +/- 1 bu/ac, the bushels per acre = (239.6 bu/ac, 241.6 bu/ac)

A discount movie pass cost 10.99. With the pass,movie tickets cost 4.25 dollars each. Feen spent a total of 61.99 dollars on the
mestny [16]
The equation would be (61.99-10.99)/4.25= x
You subtract the price of the pass from the total (61.99-10.99) then you’d divide that by 4.25 to see how many movies she watched
61.99-10.99= 51... 51/4.25= 12 she watched a total of 12 movies
