Need help! Law of cosines...find b round to the nearest tenth please

dusya [7]

ANSWER

$B = 27.8 \degree$

EXPLANATION

The law of cosine is given by the formula:

${b}^{2} = {a}^{2} + {c}^{2} - 2bc \cos(B)$

From the diagram,

a=17, b=8, c=16

We substitute the given values into the formula to obtain:

${8}^{2} = {17}^{2} + {16}^{2} - 2(17)(16)\cos(B)$

$64 = 289+ 256- 544\cos(B)$

$64 = 545- 544\cos(B)$

$64 - 545 = - 544\cos(B)$

$- 481 = - 544\cos(B)$

$\frac{ - 481}{ - 544} = \cos(B)$

$cos(B) = 0.88419$

$B = \cos ^{ - 1} (0.88419)$

$B = 27.8 \degree$

There is triangle one of the angles is 101 degrees and the other is 38 workout x

Wittaler [7]

Angle sum property = Sum of the three angles of a triangle will be equal to 180° .

Using this let us find out the measure of x .

Measure of first angle = 101°

Measure of second angle = 38°

Measure of third angle = x

$101 + 38 + x = 180$

$139 + x = 180$

$x = 180 - 139$

$= x = 41$

$∴ \: the \: value \: of \: x \: = 41°$

Solve for x: 3-x = 3(6x-9). Describe the process used to solve the equation and show each step.

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

$x=1.578$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $3-x = 3(6x-9)$

We need to find the value of $x$

$3-x = 3(6x-9)$

Distribute $3$ in the right-hand side

$3-x=18x-27$

Add both sides $x$

$3-x+x=18x+x-27\\3=19x-27$

Now, add both sides $27$

$3+27=19x-27+27\\30=19x$

Divide both sides by $19$

$\frac{30}{19}=\frac{19x}{19}\\x=1.578$

So, $x=1.578$

Lin lines the bottom of her first pan with aluminum foil. The area of the rectangular piece of foil 11 1 4 is square inches. Its

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Length =

= 5/2 inches or 2 1/2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Lin lines the bottom of her first pan with aluminum foil. The area of the rectangular piece of foil 11 1 4 is square inches. Its length is 4 1 2 inches. What is the width of the foil? Explain your reasoning.

Area of rectangle = Length × Width

Widths = Area/Length

The area of the rectangular piece of foil 11 1/4 is square inches.

Its length is 4 1 /2 inches.

Hence:

Length = 11 1/4 /4 1/2

= 45/4 ÷ 9/2

= 45/4 × 2/9

= 5/2 inches

= 2 1/2 inches
