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

Find out if the 3 positions are on the same line or not (3,2,0) (1, -1,2) (5,5, 2)
sattari [20]

Answer:

The three positions are not on the same line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three points: A:(3,2,0),  B:(1,-1,2) and C:(5,5,2).

Let's build a vector that goes from one point to another; that vector will be the director of a line (if we draw a vector that goes from A to B, that vector will be the direction of the line that pass by A and B because it does not change). In order to build that vector, let's subtract B from A:

A-B=(3,2,0)-(1,-1,2)=(2,3,-2)

The equation of a line is:

p=p_0+rt

Where p is every singular point of the line, p_0 is a particular point of the line (any that we are sure that it is on the line), r is the director vector and t is the independent variable.

Now we have the director vector: (2,3,-2), and we can verify that A and B are on the line:

p=p_0+(2,3,-2)t

Because there is a value for t that satisfies both A and B: If we do p_0=(3,2,0) and t=0, we are going to obtain the point p=A; and if we do t=-1, we are going to obtain p=B. Let's see that:

p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*0=(3,2,0)\\p=A\\p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)*-1=(1,-1,2)\\p=B\\

If C is also in the same line, C must accomplish the equation: p=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t, so:

C=(5,5,2)=(3,2,0)+(2,3,-2)t

Let's simplify the equation writing the parametric equation, which is just to write the equation for each dimension:

5=3+2t\\5=2-3t\\2=-2t\\

You can verify that there is not a value of t that satisfies all three equations, so, the point C is not on the same line as A and B; which means that A, B and C are not on the same line.

Identify the postulate that proves the triangles are congruent.
Ratling [72]

Answer:

ASA

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle ABD is congruent to triangle BDC by ASA because angle B in ABD  is 30 degrees. Then they give you BD which equals BD by the reflexive property. And finally angle D in ABD is also 30 degrees. In triangle BCD, angle B is 30 degrees, BD = BD, and angle D in BCD is 30 degress. So we have an angle (B), side (BD), and another angle (D)

Carla and rob left a 20% tip after having lunch at a restaurant the amount of the tip was $6 Carla's lunch cost $15 which equati
siniylev [52]
This question is a little tricky.  Carla had a bill of $15, which we will add to the cost of Rob's lunch.  They left a 20% tip on the TOTAL cost of both their lunches, which should equal $6.  20% is equivalent to 0.2.  So, the equation is 6=0.2(x+15).  In other words, 20% of the sum of Carla and Rob's lunches is 6 dollars.

Answer: 6=0.2(x+15)

Tom has 28 milk chocolates and emily has 24 dark chocolates they have to divide these chocolates into small packets that each ha
Nutka1998 [239]
28+24=52
So we make a sum of what's going to equal 52 in small packets.
I found 4x13=52. 13 would be the number of packets......
BUT!! Since it MUST be equal dark and milk and we have 28 and 26,
you would have to eliminate 1 pack because all 4 would be milk chocolate.
So that is only 12 packets.
4 per pack so that would be 2 dark and 2 milk per packet.

Find the domain of the function (f/g)(x) where f(x)=√x+1, g(x)=√x-9
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

4x + 9. Given f(x) = 2x + 3 and g(x) = –x2 + 5, find (g o g)(x). (g o g)(x) = g(g(x)) ... Given f (x) = sqrt(x) and g(x) = x – 2, find the domains of ( f o g)(x) and (g o f )(x). Since f (x) involves a square root, the inputs have to be non-negative. ... Given h(x) = (x + 1)2 + 2(x + 1) – 3, determine two functions f (x) and g(x
