Solve each triangle. Round your answers to the nearest tenth
ivolga24 [154]
You have to use the Law of Cosines here, since there's no other way to solve this.  it's not a right triangle, so you can't use the Pythagorean Theorem.  The Law of Cosines will help us find the missing side length then we will have to use the Law of Sines to find another angle.  Then after that we will use the Triangle Angle-Sum theorem to finish it off.  Ready? The Law of Cosines to find side b isb^{2} = a^{2}+ c^{2} -2ac cosB and fill in the info we know, which is everything but the b. b^{2} =(21) ^{2} +(29) ^{2} -2(21)(29)cos109. Doing all that math gives us that side b = 40.9 or 41. Now the Law of Sines to find missing angle A or C.  Let's find A. \frac{sinA}{21} = \frac{sin109}{41}.  That gives us that angle A is 29.  Now use the fact that all triangles add up to 180 to get that angle C is 42.  And you're done!

Simplify each equation. Tell whether the equation has one, no, or infinite solutions. 3x-7=3(x-3)+2
STatiana [176]

Answer: Infinite solutions

Step-by-step explanation: 3x -7 = 3(x-3)+2

                                             3x + -7 = (3)(x) + (3)(-3) + 2

                                             3x + -7 = 3x + -9 + 2

                                             3x - 7 = (3x) + (-7)

                                             3x -7 - 3x = 3x - 7 - 3x

                                             -7 + 7 = -7 + 7

                                             0 = 0

Prove ΔPAB is isosceles.
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

If PX\cong PY, then triangle PXY is isosceles triangle. Angles adjacent to the base XY of an isosceles triangle PXY are congruent, so

\angle 1\cong \angle 2

and

m\angle 1=m\angle 2

Angles 1 and 3 are supplementary, so

m\angle 3=180^{\circ}-m\angle 1

Angles 2 and 4 are supplementary, so

m\angle 4=180^{\circ}-m\angle 2

By substitution property,

m\angle 4=180^{\circ}-m\angle 2=180^{\circ}-m\angle 1=m\angle 3

Hence,

\angle 3\cong \angle 4

Consider triangles APX and BPY. In these triangles:

  • PX\cong PY - given;
  • \angle 5\cong \angle 6 - given;
  • \angle 3\cong \angle 4 - proven,

so \triangle APX\cong \triangle BPY by ASA postulate.

Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding sides, then

AP\cong BP

Therefore, triangle APB is isosceles triangle (by definition).

One number is seven less than four times the other number. The sum of the two numbers is 93. Find the numbers.
ivann1987 [24]

You can write the two equations x = 4y - 7 and x + y = 93; substitute the value of x into the other equation

(4y - 7) + y = 93; combine like terms

5y - 7 = 93; add 7 to both sides

5y = 100; divide both sides by 5

y = 20; substitute this value into the other equation

x + 20 = 93

x = 73

So the numbers are 20 and 73

Find the value of a if given points are collinear (5,1) (3,2) and (1,a)​
Ksenya-84 [330]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-values 5, 3, 1 form an arithmetic sequence. The y-values will do the same: 1, 2, a = 1, 2, 3 -- a common difference of +1.

  a = 3
