We can find m∠BCD like follows: m∠BCD=90°-45°=45<span>°
Now, m</span><span>∠DBC= 180°-(90°+45°)=45°

Remember that </span>sin \alpha = \frac{opposite leg}{hypotenuse}, so oppositeleg=(hypotenuse)(sin \alpha )

We know that hypotenuse= BC= 3in and \alpha=∠DBC)=45°, so replacing the values we get:
CD=3sin(45)=2.12

We can conclude that the segment CD is 2.12 in

Given ΔABC,

m∠ACB = 90 degrees,

CD ⊥ AB

m∠ACD = 45 degrees

BC = 3 in

CD is unknown

 

To know the Length of CD, we use the trigonometric function Cos Ɵ = A/H

If ∠BCD is Ɵ,

H = BC = 3 in

A = CD (Unknown)

 

m∠ACD + m∠BCD = m∠ACB

m∠BCD = m∠ACB – m∠ACD

m∠BCD = 90 degrees – 45 degrees

m∠BCD = 45 degrees

Therefore, Ɵ = m∠BCD = 45 degrees

 

Cos Ɵ = A/H

Cos 45 = CD/3

CD = 3 Cos 45

CD= 3 x 0.7071

CD = 2.1213

CD is approximately 2.12 in

9 &lt; 4(x+9) -7 - 25<br> Solve , intervals, and graph
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

x> 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

9<4(x+9)−7−25

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

9<4x+4

Step 2: Flip the equation.

4x+4>9

Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.

4x+4−4>9−4

4x>5

Step 4: Divide both sides by 4.

4x/4>5/4

x>5/4
