Answer:

170°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be the distance from Los Angeles to Chicago = 1744 miles, b be the distance from Chicago to New York = 714 miles and c be the distance from New York to Los Angeles = 2451 miles.

A is the angle opposite to side a, B is the angle opposite to side b and C is the angle opposite to side c.

Therefore the angle at Chicago is  C.

From cosine rule:

c² = a² + b² - 2ab × cos (C)

2ab × cos (C) = a² + b² - c²

cos (C) = (a² + b² - c²) / 2ab

Substituting:

cos (C) = (1744² + 714² - 2451²) / 2×1744×741

cos (C) = -0.986

C = cos⁻¹ (- 0.986) = 170°

What is the formula for calculating the area of a circle.
Tom [10]

Answer:

A=\pi\times r^2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the area of a circle we multiply π by the radius, and to find the radius of a circle we have to look at the line that stops directly in the middle of the circle.

\pi\times r


Once we then have the radius, we simply multiply the radius, (with an exponent of 2) by π and then we will have our answer. Of course, round if needed.

A=\pi\times r^2

Hope this helps.

Given a right triangle with legs a, b and hypotenuse c, solve for b if a= 72 and c= 75
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The answer is a. 21.

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question by using Pythagoras theorem to relate the sides of a right angled triangle.

Here,

Hypotenuse of the given triangle(c)=75

Two sides of right angled triangle are:

a=72

b=?

Then,

for a given right angled triangle abc,

Using Pythagoras theorem,

c=\sqrt{a^{2} +b^{2} }

Squaring on both sides,

c^{2} =a^{2}+b^{2}

or,75^{2}=72^{2}+b^{2}

or, b^{2}=75^{2}-72^{2}

or,b^{2}=5625- 5184

or,b^{2} =441

∴b=21

So, the value of b is obtained to 21 by the use of Pythagoras theorem.

Is this a proportional relationship c=7n+2
just olya [345]

Answer:

no

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relationship must go through (0,0)

c=7n+2

0 = 7(0) +2

0 = 2

This is not true so it is not a proportional relationship
