To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1- The ladder forms an isosceles triangle, because it has two equal sides.

2- Let's call the angle \alpha. To calculate it , you can divide the triangle into two equal right triangles and the angle \alpha will be divided into two equal parts too. Therefore, you can calculate the half of the angle and then multiply it by two, as following:

Sin^{-1}(\alpha 1)=opposite/hypotenuse

Sin^{-1}(\alpha1)=8/2\\  \alpha1=14.47 degrees

\alpha =2\alpha 1\\ 2=2(14.47degrees)\\ \alpha =28.95degrees

The answer is: 28.95degrees

In which quadrant will the image FGH lie after a counterclockwise rotation of 1980 degrees? Explain how you made your prediction
Nata [24]

A 360 degrees counter-clockwise rotation will bring the triangle at the same place.

So, divide 1980 by 360 and find the remainder.

On dividing, we can find that

1980 = 5(360) + 180

A 1800 degrees rotation will rotate the triangle 5 times and will bring it in the same place.

A further 180 degrees rotation will rotate the triangle to two quadrants back and will bring it in the first quadrant.

Solve for the roots in the equation below. In your final answer, include each of the necessary steps and calculations.
Nostrana [21]
x^3-27i=0
x^3=27i
x^3=27e^{i\pi/2}
x=\left(27e^{i\pi/2}\right)^{1/3}
x=3e^{i(\pi/2+2\pi k)/3}
x=3e^{i\pi(4k+1)/6}

where k\in\{0,1,2\}. This means you have

x=3e^{i\pi/6}=\dfrac32(\sqrt3+i)
x=3e^{i5\pi/6}=\dfrac32(-\sqrt3+i)
x=3e^{i9\pi/6}=-3i

as the solutions to the original equation.

Solve. Justify your responses. a Given:a║b and c║d, m∠ 4=35° Find: m∠1, m∠2, and m∠3
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

<em>m∠1 =  90°</em>

<em>m∠2 = 35°</em>

<em>m∠3 = 55°</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

From the diagram:

m

Given that <4 = 35°

m

The sum of the angle on a straight line at point A is 180°. Hence:

90+m

The sum of angle in the triangle ABC is 180°, hence;

m
