4 = (r-2) t

8 = (r+2) t

4 = (r-2) * [8/(r+2)]

4 = (8r-16)/ (r+2)  . . .multiply by 2


4r + 8 = 8r - 16

4r = 24

r = 6

Use the law of cosines to write an expression equivalent to b
andrezito [222]

Given:

A triangle ABC.

The given expression for b is:

b=\sqrt{m+n-pq}

To find:

The expression that is equivalent to b.

Solution:

According to the Law of Cosines,

b^2=a^2+c^2-2ac\cos B

It can be written as:

b=\sqrt{a^2+c^2-2ac\cos B}              ...(i)

We have,

b=\sqrt{m+n-pq}                                ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

m=a^2

n=c^2

p=2ac

q=\cos B

Therefore, the required values are m=a^2,n=c^2,p=2ac,q=\cos B.

vampirchik [111]
I think your answer is 1,800
The sum of these numbers is 1771, so if you round up or down, whichever is closest, then you would get a total of 1,800.
