Perimeter = Side + Side + Side
Side 1 = x
Side 2 = x + 7
Side 3 = 2x-7

Plug into the equation:
84 = x + (x + 7) + (2x-7)
84 = x + x + 7 + 2x - 7

Combine like terms:
84 = 4x

Divide by 4 and solve for x:
21 = x

Side 1 = 21

Side 2 = 28
21+7=28

Side 3 = 35
21(2) - 7 = 42 - 7 = 35

Given that cosΘ = -square root 2/2 and that Θ lies in quadrant III, determine the value of sinΘ.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

  C) (square root 2)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In quadrant III, the sine of an angle is positive. The value will be ...

  sin(Θ) = √(1 -cos(x)^2) = √(1 -(-√2/2)^2) = √(2/4)

  sin(Θ) = (√2)/2

Maria stated that 5/6 is between 4/5 and 6/7
Vlada [557]

Answer:

It's true, if that's what your asking.

Step-by-step explanation:

5/6 = 0.833 to 3 sig.fig.

4/5 = 0.800 to 3 sig.fig.

6/7 = 0.857 to 3 sig.fig.

0.833 is more than 0.800 and less than 0.857.
