Raymond has taken a position as the navigator on a speed boat racing team. The team entered a race that starts at Daytona Beach,

Florida. The first leg of the race course has them traveling due east for 140 miles. They turn right and travel 160 miles for the second leg of the race. They make another right turn to start the third and final leg of the race, in which they will travel 180 miles back to the starting point at Daytona Beach. What is the measure of the turn between the second and third legs of the race? Round your answer to the nearest degree.

Answer:

48 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

You can calculate the angle between the second and third legs of the race by substituting the three side lengths of the triangle in the Law of Cosines.

Using the rules of cosines, the <span>measure of the turn between the second and third legs of the race</span> is given by

\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{180^2+160^2-140^2}{2\times180\times160} \right)=\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{32,400+26,600-19,600}{57,600} \right) \\  \\ =\cos^{-1}\left( \frac{39,400}{57,600} \right)=\cos^{-1}(0.6840)\approx47^o

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the exterior angles of a polygon = 360°

Given the measure of each = 24°, then

number of sides = 360° ÷ 24° = 15

Danny bought 5 Pes to $0.30 each six pencils at $0.25 since in The Notebook for $3 and the tax is $8 how much did he pay will ma
Paha777 [63]
The answer is 14. This is because 0.30 multiplied by 5 is 1.5. Then 6 multiplied by 0.25 is 1.5 as well. Adding these two together is 3. 3 plus 3 for the notebook is 6. Than 6 plus 8 dollar tax is 14 dollars.

Help please!!<br> asap no wrong answers<br> will give the crown symbol
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

4Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of a sine or cosine function,

y = acos(b(x+c))

where a is the amplitude, b is the value to find the period. and c is the phase shift.

Period = \frac{2\pi}{b}

From the equation given in the question,

y = 3cos(8\pi \: t +  \frac{\pi}{2} ) \\ y = 3cos(8\pi(t +  \frac{1}{16} )) \:  \: (factorising \: 8\pi \: out)

We can see:

Amplitude = 3,

Period = \frac{2\pi}{8\pi} = 1 / 4

Phase Shift = 1 / 16

Now we want to find the frequency.

Frequency = 1 / Period

= 1 / (1/4)

= 4Hz
