Tan C = 350 / 500
tan C = 0.7
∠ C = tan^(-1) 0.7
∠ C = 34.99° ≈ 35°
Answer:
The measure of angle C is
A. 35°

From the given figure,

\tan C= \frac{350}{500} =0.7 \\  \\ \Rightarrow C=\tan^{-1}(0.7)\approx35^o

In APQR, find the measure of Z.P.
egoroff_w [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

multiple possibilities.

e.g.

we could use Pythagoras to get QR, and then use the law of sine to get angle P.

or we can use the law of sine to get angle R, and then use the rule that the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180° to get angle P.

I propose the second option :

the law of sine :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C)

with a, b, c being the sides always opposite of their associated angles.

33.8/sin(R) = 57.6/sin(90) = 57.6

sin(R) = 33.8/57.6 = 0.586805555...

R = 35.93064691...°

180 = 90 + 35.93064691... + P

P = 54.06935309...°

Given that 2y^3+by-cy+d,where b,c and d are constants,leaves a remainder R when divided by (y+1) , (y-2) and (2y-1). Find the va
Eddi Din [679]

The polynomial remainder theorem says that a polynomial <em>p(x)</em> leaves a remainder of <em>p(k)</em> when it's divided by <em>x</em> - <em>k</em>.

We're given that dividing <em>p(y)</em> = 2<em>y</em>³ + <em>by</em>² - <em>cy</em> + <em>d</em> leaves the same remainder <em>R</em> after dividing it by <em>y</em> + 1, <em>y</em> - 2, and 2<em>y</em> - 1. So we have

<em>p</em>(-1) = 2(-1)³ + <em>b</em>(-1)² - <em>c</em>(-1) + <em>d</em> = <em>R</em>

==>  <em>R</em> = -2 + <em>b</em> + <em>c</em> + <em>d</em>

<em>p</em>(2) = 2(2)³ + <em>b</em>(2)² - <em>c</em>(2) + <em>d</em> = <em>R</em>

==>  <em>R</em> = 16 + 4<em>b</em> - 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>

<em>p</em>(1/2) = 2(1/2)³ + <em>b</em>(1/2)² - <em>c</em>(1/2) + <em>d</em> = <em>R</em>

==>  <em>R</em> = 1/4 + <em>b</em>/4 - <em>c</em>/2 + <em>d</em>

<em />

We're also given that <em>y</em> + 2 is a factor, which means dividing <em>p(y)</em> by it leaves no remainder, and so

<em>p</em>(-2) = 2(-2)³ + <em>b</em>(-2)² - <em>c</em>(-2) + <em>d</em> = 0

==>  0 = -16 + 4<em>b</em> + 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>

<em />

Solve the system of equations in boldface. You can eliminate <em>d</em> from the first 3 to first solve for <em>b</em> and <em>c</em>, then solve for <em>d</em> :

(-2 + <em>b</em> + <em>c</em> + <em>d</em>) - (16 + 4<em>b</em> - 2<em>c</em> + <em>d</em>) = <em>R</em> - <em>R</em>

-18 - 3<em>b</em> + 3<em>c</em> = 0

<em>b</em> - <em>c</em> = -6

(-2 + <em>b</em> + <em>c</em> + <em>d</em>) - (1/4 + <em>b</em>/4 - <em>c</em>/2 + <em>d</em>) = <em>R</em> - <em>R</em>

-9/4 + 3<em>b</em>/4 + 3<em>c</em>/2 = 0

<em>b</em> + 2<em>c</em> = 3

(<em>b</em> - <em>c</em>) - (<em>b</em> + 2<em>c</em>) = -6 - 3

-3<em>c</em> = -9

<em>c</em> = 3

<em>b</em> - 3 = -6

<em>b</em> = -3

-16 + 4(-3) + 2(3) + <em>d</em> = 0

<em>d</em> = 22

A line passes through the points A(n,4) and B(6,8) and is parallel to y=2x-5. What is the value of n?​
Lady_Fox [76]

The slope of <em>y</em> = 2<em>x</em> - 5 is 2. Parallel lines have the same slope, so the slope of the line through the given points <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> is also 2. This means

(8 - 4) / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2

Solve for <em>n</em> :

4 / (6 - <em>n</em>) = 2

4/2 = 6 - <em>n</em>

2 = 6 - <em>n</em>

<em>n</em> = 6 - 2

<em>n</em> = 4
