Given: Triangle ABC, mmBC=24 cm, line segment AL- &lt; bisector
Furkat [3]

The value of line AL is 21. 51cm

<h3>How to determine the length</h3>

To find line AL,

Using

Sin α = opposite/ hypotenuse to find line AB

Sin 90 = x/ 24

1 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24cm

Now, let's find line AC

Sin angle B = line AC/24

Note that to find angle B

angle A + angle B + angle C = 180

But angle B = 2 Angle A

x + 2x + 90 = 180

3x + 90 = 180

3x = 180-90

x = 30°

Angle B = 2 × 30 = 60°

Sin 60 = x/ 24

0. 8660 = x/24

Cross multiply

x = 24 × 0. 8660

x = 20. 78cm

We have the angle of A  in the given triangle to be divide into two by the bisector, angle A = 15°

To find line AL, we use

Cos = adjacent/ line AL

Cos 15 = 20. 78/ line AL

Line AL = 20. 78/ cos 15

Line AL = 20. 78 / 0. 9659

Line AL = 21. 51 cm

Thus, the value of line AL is 21. 51cm

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

101 m^3

Step-by-step explanation:

v = π * r^2 * h/3

= π * 4^2 * 6/3

v= 100.53 m^3

v= 101 m^3 to the nearest cubic meter

For each of the following claims, fill in the blanks in the provided hypotheses with inequalities. If your answer is "less than,
Leni [432]

Answer:

a) H0: μ=>3; Ha: μ<3

b) H0: μ<=110; Ha: μ>110

c) H0: μ=2.1; Ha: μ/=2.1

d) H0: μ=>70; Ha: μ<70

Step-by-step explanation:

The claims are usually expressed in the alternative hypothesis, for which we evaluate the evidence, usually sample statistics.

(a) Theory to be tested: The average number of children per household in the United States is less than 3.

In this case, the claim is that the mean is below 3 children per household. The null hypothesis will state then that the average number of children is 3 or more.

H0: μ=>3; Ha: μ<3

(b) Theory to be tested: The average weight of TAMU students is greater than 110 pounds.

The alternative hypothesis represents the claim that the mean is greater than 110. The null hypothesis, then will state that the mean is equal or less than 110.

H0: μ<=110; Ha: μ>110

(c) Theory to be tested: The average diameter of Saguaro cacti is not 2.1 feet.

In this case, the alternative hypothesis is represented by an unequal sign (the average diameter can be higher or lower). Then, the null hypothesis will state that the average diameter is equal to 2.1.

H0: μ=2.1; Ha: μ/=2.1

(d) Theory to be tested: In Belarus (former member of the Soviet Union, located near Chernobyl), the average life span is under 70 years.

The alternative hypothesis states that the average life span is under 70 years, so the null hypothesis will state that it is equal or more than 70 years.

H0: μ=>70; Ha: μ<70
