Is this multiple choice....?
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
Sean first thought that his hand was 20 cm so:
20cm
When he measures with a ruler, he gets 18 cm so:
18cm
The equation is really simple, and you basically do:
20/20 - 18/20 = 2/20 = 1/10 = 10%
The equation is:
1- x/y
x equals the new number
y equals the original number
(5,7) is the answer to the question, you can also use (-1,-5)
Answer:
a = 3, b = 4, c = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming we're working with a right triangle, where c is the hypotenuse, then using the definition of the cosine being the adjacent side over the hypotenuse, then we know:
a = 3, because it is the side adjacent to B
b = 4, because it is the side adjacent to A
c = 5, because it is the denominator in bot fractions
This of course assumes that there is no additional ratio in place. For example, if the lengths were instead 8, 6 and 10 respectively, then the cosines given would still be 4/5 and 3/5. Truthfully these only tell relative sizes of the sides, and not their absolute sizes.
