Answer:

Side\ B = 6.0

\alpha = 56.3

\theta = 93.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let the three sides be represented with A, B, C

Let the angles be represented with \alpha, \beta, \theta

[See Attachment for Triangle]

A = 10cm

C = 12cm

\beta = 30

What the question is to calculate the third length (Side B) and the other 2 angles (\alpha\ and\ \theta)

Solving for Side B;

When two angles of a triangle are known, the third side is calculated as thus;

B^2 = A^2 + C^2 - 2ABCos\beta

Substitute: A = 10,  C =12; \beta = 30

B^2 = 10^2 + 12^2 - 2 * 10 * 12 *Cos30

B^2 = 100 + 144 - 240*0.86602540378

B^2 = 100 + 144 - 207.846096907

B^2 = 36.153903093

Take Square root of both sides

\sqrt{B^2} = \sqrt{36.153903093}

B = \sqrt{36.153903093}

B = 6.0128115797

B = 6.0 <em>(Approximated)</em>

Calculating Angle \alpha

A^2 = B^2 + C^2 - 2BCCos\alpha

Substitute: A = 10,  C =12; B = 6

10^2 = 6^2 + 12^2 - 2 * 6 * 12 *Cos\alpha

100 = 36 + 144 - 144 *Cos\alpha

100 = 36 + 144 - 144 *Cos\alpha

100 = 180 - 144 *Cos\alpha

Subtract 180 from both sides

100 - 180 = 180 - 180 - 144 *Cos\alpha

-80 = - 144 *Cos\alpha

Divide both sides by -144

\frac{-80}{-144} = \frac{- 144 *Cos\alpha}{-144}

\frac{-80}{-144} = Cos\alpha

0.5555556 = Cos\alpha

Take arccos of both sides

Cos^{-1}(0.5555556) = Cos^{-1}(Cos\alpha)

Cos^{-1}(0.5555556) = \alpha

56.25098078 = \alpha

\alpha = 56.3 <em>(Approximated)</em>

Calculating \theta

Sum of angles in a triangle = 180

Hence;

\alpha + \beta + \theta = 180

30 + 56.3 + \theta = 180

86.3 + \theta = 180

Make \theta the subject of formula

\theta = 180 - 86.3

\theta = 93.7

You have some money in your wallet. You don't know the exact amount, but you think you have 60 dollars give or take 15 dollars.
Karolina [17]

Answer:

The least amount is 75 dollars.

The biggest amount is 125 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute value function will help us determine a  range of possible values since we do not know the exact amount of money.

Defining the function.

Let x be the exact amount of money in my pocket, we can define the equation

And we know that the difference between the exact amount of money with 100 dollars must be either 25 dollars more than what we estimated, or 25 dollars less than the estimation.  So we can write:

We have a difference inside an absolute value, since we know the difference must be either +25 or -25.

Solving for x

Using the definition of absolute value we have

So if the inside of the absolute value is positive we have the first line of the piece-wise function, that is

Solving for x give us

If the inside of the absolute value is negative we have to use the second line of the piece-wise function definition

Solving for x give us

So the least amount of money in my pocket is 75 dollars and the biggest amount is 125 dollars.

I need help solving this equation<br> 4n-9=2(5+2n)
Nastasia [14]

First, use distributive property on the right half.

2 * 5 = 10

2 * 2n = 4n

4n - 9 = 10 + 4n

Add 9 to both sides

4n = 19 + 4n

Subtract 4n from both sides

0 = 19

But thats not true. Therefore, there is no solution.
