   Using the cosine rule

 a² =  b² +  c² -2 bc cos (/)

 Simplifying the equation in terms of cos (/),

 cos (/)= (b² + c² - a²)/(2bc) 

 If cos(/) > 0

 (b² + c² - a²)/(2bc) > 0 -----------------(b² + c² - a²) > 0 

the resulting inequality should be

<span>(b² + c² ) > a² 

The answer is the letter </span><span>C. b^2 + c^2 > a^2</span>

<span>cos(/)>0, that implies that a^2+b^2!=c^2. If that were the case, cos(/) would be 0. cos(/)>0 implies that the adjacent is greater than the hypotenuse. So, the opposite plus the adjacent is greater than the hypotenuses. So, then, that implies b^2+a^2>c^2. So, A.</span>

Navy PilotsThe US Navy requires that fighter pilots have heights between 62 inches and78 inches.(a) Find the percentage of women
Zigmanuir [339]

The first part of the question is missing and it says;

Use these parameters: Men's heights are normally distributed with mean 68.6 in. and standard deviation 2.8 in. Women's heights are normally distributed with mean 63.7 in. and standard deviation 2.9 in.

Answer:

A) Percentage of women meeting the height requirement = 72.24%

B) Percentage of men meeting the height requirement = 0.875%

C) Corresponding women's height =67.42 inches while corresponding men's height = 72.19 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

For men;

Mean μ = 68.6 in

Standard deviation σ = 2.8 in

For women;

Mean μ = 63.7 in

Standard deviation σ = 2.9 in

Now let's calculate the standardized scores;

The formula is z = (x - μ)/σ

A) For women;

Z = (62 - 63.7)/2.9 = - 0.59

Z = (78 - 63.7)/2.9 = 4.93

The original question cam be framed as;

P(62 < X < 78).

So thus, the probability of only women will take the form of;

P(-0.59 < Z < 4.93) = P(Z<4.93) - P(Z > - 0.59)

From the normal probability table attached, when we interpolate, we'll arrive at P(Z<4.93) = 0.9999996

And P(Z > - 0.59) = 0.277595

Thus;

P(Z<4.93) - P(Z > - 0.59) =0.9999996 - 0.277595 = 0.7224

So, percentage of women meeting the height requirement is 72.24%.

B) For men;

Z = (62 - 68.6)/2.8 = -2.36

Z = (78 - 68.6)/2.8 = 3.36

Thus, the probability of only men will take the form of;

P(-2.36 < Z < 3.36) = P(Z<3.36) - P(Z > - 2.36)

From the normal probability table attached, when we interpolate, we'll arrive at P(Z<3.36) = 0.99961

And P(Z > -2.36) = 0.99086

Thus;

P(Z<3.36) - P(Z > -2.36) 0.99961 - 0.99086 = 0.00875

So, percentage of women meeting the height requirement is 72.24%.

B)For women;

Z = (62 - 63.7)/2.9 = - 0.59

Z = (78 - 63.7)/2.9 = 4.93

The original question cam be framed as;

P(62 < X < 78).

So thus, the probability of only women will take the form of;

P(-0.59 < Z < 4.93) = P(Z<4.93) - P(Z > - 0.59)

From the normal probability table attached, when we interpolate, we'll arrive at P(Z<4.93) = 0.9999996

And P(Z > - 0.59) = 0.277595

Thus;

P(Z<4.93) - P(Z > - 0.59) =0.9999996 - 0.277595 = 0.00875

So, percentage of women meeting the height requirement is 0.875%

C) Since the height requirements are changed to exclude the tallest 10% of men and the shortest10% of women.

For women;

Let's find the z-value with a right-tail of 10%. From the second table i attached ;

invNorm(0.90) = 1.2816

Thus, the corresponding women's height:: x = (1.2816 x 2.9) + 63.7= 67.42 inches

For men;

We have seen that,

invNorm(0.90) = 1.2816

Thus ;

Thus, the corresponding men's height:: x = (1.2816 x 2.8) + 68.6 = 72.19 inches
