Answer: The given logical equivalence is proved below.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to use truth tables to show the following logical equivalence :

P ⇔ Q ≡ (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P)

We know that

two compound propositions are said to be logically equivalent if they have same corresponding truth values in the truth table.

The truth table is as follows :

P Q ∼P ∼Q P⇔ Q ∼P ∨ Q ∼Q ∨ P (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P)

T T F F T T T T

T F F T F F T F

F T T F F T F F

F F T T T T T T

Since the corresponding truth vales for P ⇔ Q and (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P) are same, so the given propositions are logically equivalent.

Thus, P ⇔ Q ≡ (∼P ∨ Q)∧(∼Q ∨ P).

URGENT MATH HELP BRAINLIEST

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. This is a right triangle with two sides and one angle given.

-We apply Sine Rule to find the angle B:

$\frac{a}{Sin \ A}=\frac{b}{Sin \ B}=\frac{b}{Sin \ C}$

-The sides given are 10and 17 and the right angle 90°

$\frac{17}{Sin \ 90 \textdegree}=\frac{10}{Sin \ m\angle B}\\\\m\angle B=Sin^{-1}\frac{10}{(17/Sin \ 90\textdegree)}\\\\=36.03\textdegree$

Hence the angle B is 36.03°

b.We again use the sine rule to obtain the unknown angle w:

-15 corresponds to 90° and 9 corresponds to w°

$\frac{a}{Sin \ a}=\frac{b}{Sin \ B}\\\\\frac{15}{Sin \ 90\textdegree}=\frac{9}{Sin \ w\textdegree}\\\\\\\\w=Sin^{-1}(\frac{9}{15}), \ \ Sin \ 90\textdegree=1\\\\=36.87\textdegree$

Hence, the measure of w is 36.87°

Triangle ABC had a perimeter 18 cm

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Use pythagoreum theorem to determine whether it is or isn't since I'm not really sure myself but here's my calculations.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find AC.

Picture a triangle called ABC. AB is one side and BC the other while AC is the hypotenuse.

AC=

$ac = \sqrt{ab ^{2} + {bc}^{2} } \\ ac = \sqrt{ {7}^{2} } + {3}^{2} \\ ac = \sqrt{49 + 9} \\ ac = \sqrt{58 } \\ ac = 7.6$

Round up the 7.6 to a whole number and you get AC=8. To get perimeter of a triangle simply add the sides together to get 18.

Not really sure about my answer but hope this helped.
