In the triangle shown above m∠B = 114°, m∠C = 22°, and b = 12 in. What is the approximate length of side a? A. 15.78 in B. 9.12

Elena L [17]

The approximate length of side a is 9.12 in. The correct option is B. 9.12 in

<h3>Law of Sines </h3>

From the question, we are to determine the approximate length of side a

From the given information, we have that

m∠B = 114°, m∠C = 22°

Thus,

m∠A = 180° - (114° + 22°)

m∠A = 180° - 136°

m∠A = 44°

Now,

From the law of sines, we have that

a/sinA = b/sinB

Then,

a/sin44° = 12/sin114°

a = (12 ×sin44°)/sin114°

a = 9.12 in

Hence, the approximate length of side a is 9.12 in. The correct option is B. 9.12 in

Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

MAXImum [283]

General Idea:

When we are given a point P(x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by P' (kx, ky)

Applying the concept:

In the diagram given, the coordinate of C is (6, 3). Triangle ABC is being dilated with the center of dilation at the origin. The image of C, point C' has coordinates of (7.2, 3.6).

If C (x, y) centered at origin with a scale factor of k, then the dilated point will be given by C' (kx, ky)

We know $x = 6$ & $kx = 7.2$

Substituting 6 for x in the equation $kx = 7.2$ , we get $6k = 7.2$ .

Dividing 6 on both sides $\frac{6k}{6}=\frac{7.2}{6}$

Simplifying fractions on both sides $k=1.2$

Point A from the diagram is (-3, 3)

x-coordinate of A' = $kx=1.2 * -3 = -3.6$

y-coordinate of A' = $ky =1.2*3=3.6$

Point A' is given by (-3.6, 3.6)

Conclusion:

<u>Scale factor of dilation is 1.2</u>

<u>The coordinates of point A' is (-3.6, 3.6)</u>

What is the graph description for y=-10x

Serga [27]

Y = - 10x has a negative slope, m = -10, and a y-intercept of (0, 0).

The graph includes the following points:

{(-2, 20), (-1, 10), (0, 0), (1, -10), (2, -20)}.

Attached is a screenshot of the graph, where it includes the y-intercept crossing along the point of origin, (0, 0).
