In trapezoid ABCD, find m∠A if m∠B= 25°, m∠C = 155° and m∠ D= 117°.

1 answer:

6 0

Hello there! A trapezoid is a quadrilateral, and the angles of a quadrilateral have a sum of 360°. We don't know the angle measurement for A, so let's start off by adding the measurements of the other angles together. 117 + 155 + 25 is 297. Now, we subtract that number from 360 to find the angle measurement. 360 - 297 is 63. There. The measurement of angle A is 63°.

The weekly salary of a store manager includes a $30 bonus plus the number of hours the manager works multiplied by the managers

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Yes. The situation is defined by a linear function.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, The weekly salary of a store manager includes a $30 bonus plus the number of hours the manager works multiplied by the managers earnings per hour.

Is this situation defined by a linear function?

Yes, the above given situation is defined by a linear function.

Now, let us see the linear equation for above situation

Let the number of hours worked by manager be "x", and cost per hour be "c" and total salary be "y"

Then, total salary is given as,

Total salary = $ 30 bonus + number of hours worked $\times$ cost per hour

$\rightarrow \mathrm{y}=30+\mathrm{x} \times \mathrm{c}\\\\ \rightarrow \mathrm{y}=\mathrm{c} \mathrm{x}+30$

Above equation is a linear equation as "c" is constant ( cost per hour )

Hence, the given situation can be defined by linear function.

|3 + x| = 5<br> Solve for x

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

x = - 8 , x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

the absolute value function always gives a positive result, however, the expression inside can be positive or negative, , that is

x + 3 = 5 ( subtract 2 from both sides )

x = 2

-(3 + x) = 5

- 3 - x = 5 ( add 3 to both sides )

- x = 8 ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

x = - 8

Evaluate the Expression<br> When X=2, 3x-1=

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If X equals 2, then 3 times X would be 6. This is because if a number and a variable are put together, you have to multiply them. 6-1 is 5.

Find the measures of the angles of the triangle whose vertices are A = (-3,0) , B = (1,3) , and C = (1,-3).A.) The measure of ∠A

alekssr [168]

Answer:

$\theta_{CAB}=128.316$

$\theta_{ABC}=25.842$

$\theta_{BCA}=25.842$

Step-by-step explanation:

A = (-3,0) , B = (1,3) , and C = (1,-3)

We're going to use the distance formula to find the length of the sides:

$r= \sqrt{(x_1-x_2)^2+(y_1-y_2)^2+(z_1-z_2)^2}$

$AB= \sqrt{(-3-1)^2+(0-3)^2}=5$

$BC= \sqrt{(1-1)^2+(3-(-3))^2}=9$

$CA= \sqrt{(1-(-3))^2+(-3-0)^2}=5$

we can use the cosine law to find the angle:

it is to be noted that:

the angle CAB is opposite to the BC.

the angle ABC is opposite to the AC.

the angle BCA is opposite to the AB.

to find the CAB, we'll use:

$BC^2 = AB^2+CA^2-(AB)(CA)\cos{\theta_{CAB}}$

$\dfrac{BC^2-(AB^2+CA^2)}{-2(AB)(CA)} =\cos{\theta_{CAB}}$

$\cos{\theta_{CAB}}=\dfrac{9^2-(5^2+5^2)}{-2(5)(5)}$

$\theta_{CAB}=\arccos{-\dfrac{0.62}}$

$\theta_{CAB}=128.316$

Although we can use the same cosine law to find the other angles. but we can use sine law now too since we have one angle!

To find the angle ABC

$\dfrac{\sin{\theta_{ABC}}}{AC}=\dfrac{\sin{CAB}}{BC}$

$\sin{\theta_{ABC}}=AC\left(\dfrac{\sin{CAB}}{BC}\right)$

$\sin{\theta_{ABC}}=5\left(\dfrac{\sin{128.316}}{9}\right)$

$\theta_{ABC}=\arcsin{0.4359}\right)$

$\theta_{ABC}=25.842$

finally, we've seen that the triangle has two equal sides, AB = CA, this is an isosceles triangle. hence the angles ABC and BCA would also be the same.

$\theta_{BCA}=25.842$

this can also be checked using the fact the sum of all angles inside a triangle is 180

$\theta_{ABC}+\theta_{BCA}+\theta_{CAB}=180$

$25.842+128.316+25.842$

$180$
