In this case we know the three sides of the triangle, then this is a SSS triangle (Side Side Side). To solve this case, first we must use the Law of Cosines, applied to the opposite side to the angle we want to find.
We want to find angle W, and its opposite side is XV, then we apply the Law of Cosines to the side XV:
XV^2=XW^2+WV^2-2(XW)(WV)cos W
Replacing the known values:
116^2=96^2+89^2-2(96)(89)cos W
Solving for W
13,456=9,216+7,921-17,088 cos W
13,456=17,137-17,088 cos W
13,456-17,137=17,137-17,088 cos W-17,137
-3,681=-17,088 cos W
(-3,681)/(-17,088)=(-17,088 cos W)/(-17,088)
0.215414326=cos W
cos W = 0.215414326

Solving for W:
W= cos^(-1) 0.215414326
Using the calculator:
W=77.56016397°
Rounded to one decimal place:
W=77.6°

Answer: Third option 77.6°

Answer:

a)   C(d) = 37.95 + 0.62d

b)  C(74) = 37.95 + 0.62(74)

83.8 dollars

c) 8181 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The company charges a fee of 37.95 just for the rent and then 0.62 dollars per mile.

So if one person travels one mile they will pay:

37.95 + 0.62

Two miles: 37.95 + 0.62 (2)

Three miles: 37.95 + 0.62 (3)

d miles: 37.95 + 0.62(d)

Thus, the function C(d) that gives the total cost of renting the truck for one day if you drive d miles would be C(d) = 37.95 + 0.62d

Now, if we drive 74 miles, the function that gives us the cost would be:

C(74) = 37.95 + 0.62(74) = 37.95 + 45.88 = 83.83 = 83.8 dollars

Now, if we have 5110 dollars on our budget, we would have to substitute this in our function to know how many miles we can drive with that amount:

C(d)= 37.95+0.62d=5110\\37.95+0.62d=5110\\0.62d=5110-37.95\\0.62d=5072.05\\d=5072.05/ 0.62 \\d=8180.7

Thus, we could drive 8181 miles
