One side of triangle is half the longest side. The third side is

1 answer:

6 0

Let S be the first side.
Longest side is then 2S.
Third side is 2S-10.
Perimeter is sum of all three sides = S+2S+2S-10 = 75
=>
5S-10=75
5S=75+10=85
S=17

Therefore
S=17 is the first side.
Longest side is then 2S=2*17=34.
Third side is 2S-10=2*17-10=24.

State one form of the Law of Cosines and provide a trick for writing the other two forms and explain when Law of Cosines should

Yuki888 [10]

Solving for Angles

$\displaystyle \frac{a^2 + b^2 - c^2}{2ab} = cos∠C \\ \frac{a^2 - b^2 + c^2}{2ac} = cos∠B \\ \frac{-a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{2bc} = cos∠A$

* Do not forget to use the inverse function towards the end, or elce you will throw your answer off!

Solving for Edges

$\displaystyle b^2 + a^2 - 2ba\:cos∠C = c^2 \\ c^2 + a^2 - 2ca\:cos∠B = b^2 \\ c^2 + b^2 - 2cb\:cos∠A = a^2$

You would use this law under two conditions:

One angle and two edges defined, while trying to solve for the third edge
ALL three edges defined

* Just make sure to use the inverse function towards the end, or elce you will throw your answer off!

_____________________________________________

Now, JUST IN CASE, you would use the Law of Sines under three conditions:

Two angles and one edge defined, while trying to solve for the second edge
One angle and two edges defined, while trying to solve for the second angle
ALL three angles defined [of which does not occur very often, but it all refers back to the first bullet]

* I HIGHLY suggest you keep note of all of this significant information. You will need it going into the future.

I am delighted to assist you at any time.

Hello there! The missing y-values are 12, 14, and 16.

Given all our x-values and two additional y-values, we can see that multiplying the x-value by 2 gives us the y-value. This is shown when x is 5 and 9, because multiplying 5 by 2 gave us 10, and multiplying 9 by 2 gave us 18. Because of this rule, we can multiply each given x-value by 2 to receive our y-value. Once solving, we also notice that the y-values all add by 2 to get the next factor as the data number increases. Hope this helps!
