Given right triangle JKL what is the value of cos(L)?

1 answer:

8 0

For the right triangle to be given in name of three letters such as this, the right angle is most likely to be in the center, in this case letter K. To determine the common trigonometric properties of a certain angle we may use of the mnemonics SOH - CAH - TOA.
sin angle = opposite side / hypotenuse
cosine angle = adjacent side / hypotenuse
tangent angle = opposite side / adjacent side

If we let small letter j, k, and l be the sides opposite to angles J, K, and L, respectively. Then, the cos (L) will be,
cos (L) = j/k

Answer:

a. Yes, there are 10 independent trials, each with exactly two possible outcomes, and a constant probability associated with each possible outcome.

b. The probability is 0.2029 or 20.29%

c. The probability is 0.2029 or 20.29%

d. The probability is 0.1671 or 16.71%

e. The probability is 0.9975 or 99.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, there are 10 independent trials, each with exactly two possible outcomes, and a constant probability associated with each possible outcome.

b. Let's use the binomial distribution table, this way:

Binomial distribution (n=10, p=0.697)

f(x) F(x) 1 - F(x)

x Pr[X = x] Pr[X ≤ x]

0 0.0000 0.0000

1 0.0002 0.0002

2 0.0016 0.0017

3 0.0095 0.0112

4 0.0384 0.0496

5 0.1059 0.1555

6 0.2029 0.3584

7 0.2668 0.6252

8 0.2301 0.8553

9 0.1176 0.9729

10 0.0271 1.0000

The probability is 0.2029 or 20.29%

c. If 69.7% of 18-20 years old consumed alcoholic beverages in 2008, therefore, 30.3% did not and the binomial distribution table is:

Binomial distribution (n=10, p=0.303)

f(x) F(x) 1 - F(x)

x Pr[X = x] Pr[X ≤ x]

0 0.0271 0.0271

1 0.1176 0.1447

2 0.2301 0.3748

3 0.2668 0.6416

4 0.2029 0.8445

5 0.1059 0.9504

6 0.0384 0.9888

7 0.0095 0.9983

8 0.0016 0.9998

9 0.0002 1.0000

10 0.0000 1.0000

The probability is 0.2029 or 20.29%

d. Let's use the binomial distribution table, this way:

Binomial distribution (n=5, p=0.697)

f(x) F(x) 1 - F(x)

x Pr[X = x] Pr[X ≤ x]

0 0.0026 0.0026

1 0.0294 0.0319

2 0.1351 0.1671

3 0.3109 0.4779

4 0.3576 0.8355

5 0.1645 1.0000

P(0) + P(1) + P (2) = 0.0026 + 0.0294 + 0.1351

The probability is 0.1671 or 16.71%

e. Using the same binomial distribution table we used in d. we have:

P(1) + P (2) + P(3) + P(4) + P (5) = 0.0294 + 0.1351 + 0.3109 + 0.3576 + 0.1645

The probability is 0.9975 or 99.75%

The eccentricity e of an ellipse is defined as the number c/a, where a is the distance of a vertex from the center and c is the

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Check below, please.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there!

Since we can describe eccentricity as $e=\frac{c}{a}$

a) Eccentricity close to 0

An ellipsis with eccentricity whose value is 0, is in fact, a degenerate one almost a circle. An ellipse whose value is close to zero is almost a degenerate circle. The closer the eccentricity comes to zero, the more rounded gets the ellipse just like a circle. (Check picture, please)

$\frac{x^2}{a^2} +\frac{y^2}{b^2} =1 \:(Ellipse \:formula)\\a^2=b^2+c^2 \: (Pythagorean\: Theorem)\:a=longer \:axis.\:b=shorter \:axis)\\a^2=b^2+(0)^2 \:(c\:is \:the\: distance \: the\: Foci)\\\\a^2=b^2 \\a=b\: (the \:halves \:of \:each\:axes \:measure \:the \:same)$

b) Eccentricity =5

$5=\frac{c}{a} \:c=5a$

An eccentricity equal to 5 implies that the distance between the Foci has to be five (5) times larger than the half of its longer axis! In this case, there can't be an ellipse since the eccentricity must be between 0 and 1 in other words:

$If\:e=\frac{c}{a} \:then\:c>0 , and\: c>0 \:then \:1>e>0$

c) Eccentricity close to 1

In this case, the eccentricity close or equal to 1 We must conceive an ellipse whose measure for the half of the longer axis a and the distance between the Foci 'c' they both have the same size.

$a=c\\\\a^2=b^2+c^2\:(In \:the\:Pythagorean\:Theorem\: we \:should\:conceive \:b=0)$

$Then:\\\\a=c\\e=\frac{c}{a}\therefore e=1$

Plz tell me how u got it and hurry please

Studentka2010 [4]

Because the shape is a cube, we know that all sides must be 5cm. To find the area of a side, you do base × height, so 5 × 5 = 25. If you look at the net, you'll notice that there are 6 faces, which means you have to do 25 × 6 = 150cm^2. I hope this helps!
