Explain why using the law of sines when given SSA information can result in one, two, or no triangles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever SSA information is given, we have

a/sinA = b/sin B = c/sin C

When we know a and sin A, and b we can solve for sin B.

When sin B is known, we can have B take two values one in the I quadrant less than 90 and one in the ii quadrant more than 90.

Sometimes both angles have to be taken as solutions for two triangles.

In these cases, we can get two triangles as solution for the given information.

For example, if A =20 degrees and if we get sinB=1/2 then we can have B as either 30 or 150 since both consistent when added with 20 gives less than 180

In these cases we get two triangles as solution.

If A = 40 say then we can have B only taking 30.

In this case one solution.

No triangle is possible only when sum of two sides exceed third side in other words the given information do not form a triangle.

Due to the ambiguous case of the law of sines, two different triangles could be created. There may be a second angle if you are given two sides and the angle not in between. The ambiguous case may result in one solution, two solutions or no solutions therefore there can be one, two or no triangles.

There is a type of ammo in f/o/r/t/n/i/t/e that can be magically used for every single gun. You open an ammo box, and out pops 141 rounds of that ammo. You have already collected 6 guns. How many rounds go into each gun?

The answer is 23.5

THERE IS A REMAINDER??

Nothing happens! Literally! It never happened! There is no ammo that can be used for all the guns. GG and hope to see you on the game sometime, cause...i am not allowed to have it.

I need a bit of help here.

Answer:

Beginning in the 6th century BC with the Pythagoreans, the Ancient Greeks began a systematic study of mathematics as a subject in its own right with Greek mathematics. Around 300 BC, Euclid introduced the axiomatic method still used in mathematics today, consisting of definition, axiom, theorem, and proof.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first recorded zero appeared in Mesopotamia around 3 B.C. The Mayans invented it independently circa 4 A.D. It was later devised in India in the mid-fifth century, spread to Cambodia near the end of the seventh century, and into China and the Islamic countries at the end of the eighth.

Gemiola [76]

( 1635 ÷ 24 ) • 100 = monthly income

1635 ÷ 24 = 68.125

68.125 • 100 = $6812.50 a month

If p is a positive integer, which could be an odd integer?
sdas [7]
p > 0 \Rightarrow

2p+2 (even)

p^3-p (odd or even)

p^2 + p (even)

p^2 - p (even)

7p - 3 (ODD); 7p odd, 7p-3 = (odd)-(odd)=(odd)
