Answer:

The answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find cos 45° we must first find the adjacent and the hypotenuse

Let the adjacent be x

Let the hypotenuse be h

To find the adjacent we use tan

tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent

From the question

the opposite is 9

So we have

tan 45 = 9 / x

x tan 45 = 9

but tan 45 = 1

x = 9

Since we have the adjacent we use Pythagoras theorem to find the hypotenuse

That's

h² = 9² + 9²

h² = 81 + 81

h² = 162

h = √162

h = 9√2

Now use the formula for cosine

cos∅ = adjacent / hypotenuse

The adjacent is 9

The hypotenuse is 9√2

So we have

cos 45 = 9/9√2

We have the final answer as

<h3 /><h3>cos 45 = 1 / √2</h3>

Hope this helps you

How many real solutions does this system of equations have? x2 +3 = y<br> 3х — у+1 = 0
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x²+3

y = 3x+1

x² + 3 = 3x +1

x² - 3x + 2 = 0

(x-2)(x-1) = 0

x = 2, 1

Two solutions

(2,7) and (1,4)

Zack and Noah jogged 2/5 of a mile and walked another 1/4 of a mile. How far did they go in all?
Basile [38]
Find a common denominator. The lowest one would come from you multiplying 2/5 by 4 on each side and 1/4 by 5 on each side. You are left with 8/20 and 5/20, added together would be 13/20.
