A baby weights 18 pounds at her four month appointment. Six months later she weights 24 pounds. By what percentage did the baby’

s weight increase?

Answer: 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Previous baby's weight = 18 pounds

New baby's weight =  24 pounds.

Increase in weight = New weight -Previews weight

=24 pounds - 18 pounds  =6 pounds

Percentage increase in baby's weight ==\dfrac{\text{Increase in baby's weight}}{\text{previous weight}}\times100

\\\\=\dfrac{6}{24}\times100=25\%

Hence, the percentage increase in baby's weight = 25%

How to solve this and explain
Goryan [66]
You first wanna find <BAD, because if AB is perpendicular to AC, then it has to form a 90 degree angle. So 90-56=34 degrees. So now you have a 34 & 63 degrees in the ABD triangle. In a triangle, all angles add up to equal 180 degrees. So 34+63+x=180...and x=83. So <ADB= 83 degrees. Now you want to find angle ADC...which you can just subtract 83 from 180 (because <ADB & <ADC forms 180 degree angle). You will then get 97 as angle ADC. So, the same thing as before, add up 56+97+x=180, because all angles (in the triangle ADC) add up to be 180 degrees. X will then equal 27 degrees. Angle ACB= 27 degrees.

In a triangle, two sides that measure 8 centimeters and 11 centimeters form an angle that measures 82°. to the nearest tenth of
Gwar [14]
We can use the Сosine formula to solve this problem.
<span>First we must find the third side (АС) of the triangle:
</span>
AC^2=AB^2+BC^2-2*AB*BC*cos82^o \\ AC^2=8^2+11^2-2*8*11*0.1392 \\ AC^2=64+121-24.4992= 160.508 \\ AC= \sqrt{160.508} \approx  12.67 \ cm
<span>
The smallest angle of the triangle lies opposite the smallest side, so we need to find m</span>∠C.

cosC= \frac{AC^2+BC^2-AB^2}{2*AC*BC}  \\  \\ cosC= \frac{12.67^2+11^2-8^2}{2*12.67*11}= \frac{160.53+121-64}{278.74} = \frac{217.53}{278.74} \approx  0.7804

Now we can use Bradis's Table (I don't know the name in English, maybe Trigonometric Table?) to find m∠C:

m∠С = 38°42' = 38.7°

Answer: 38.7°

(a) Yes all six trig functions exist for this point in quadrant III. The only time you'll run into problems is when either x = 0 or y = 0, due to division by zero errors. For instance, if x = 0, then tan(t) = sin(t)/cos(t) will have cos(t) = 0, as x = cos(t). you cannot have zero in the denominator. Since neither coordinate is zero, we don't have such problems.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b) The following functions are positive in quadrant III:

tangent, cotangent

The following functions are negative in quadrant III

cosine, sine, secant, cosecant

A short explanation is that x = cos(t) and y = sin(t). The x and y coordinates are negative in quadrant III, so both sine and cosine are negative. Their reciprocal functions secant and cosecant are negative here as well. Combining sine and cosine to get tan = sin/cos, we see that the negatives cancel which is why tangent is positive here. Cotangent is also positive for similar reasons.
