In this problem, you apply principles in trigonometry. Since it is not mentioned, you will not assume that the triangle is a special triangle such as the right triangle. Hence, you cannot use Pythagorean formulas. The only equations you can use is the Law of Sines and Law of Cosines.

For finding side a, you can answer this easily by the Law of Cosines. The equation is

a2=b2 +c2 -2bccosA
a2 = 11^2 + 8^2 -2(11)(8)(cos54)
a2 = 81.55
a = √81.55
a = 9 

Then, we use the Law of Sines to find angles B and C. The formula would be

a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC
9/sin54° =  11/sinB
B = 80.4°

9/sin54° = 8/sinC
C = 45.6°

The answer would be: a ≈ 9, C ≈ 45.6, B ≈ 80.4

What is 3x^2-2n-5=0<br> please help me!!!
expeople1 [14]
The answer to your question is: 
It is a quadratic equation in 'x', with 'n' mistakenly typed in the second term..

Although you didn't ask for the solutions to the equation, I'm already here
so I might as well go through it and find them:

<span><u>3x² - 2x - 5 = 0</u></span>

In terms of the generic quadratic formula:
A = 3
B = -2
C = -5

Plug those into the quadratic formula, and you discover that

<u>x = -1</u>
and
<u>x = ⁵/₃</u>

What’s the result ????????????????
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Option 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You must multiply (2x + 3) by (x + 4). I use the FOIL method.

(2x + 3)(x + 4)

Multiply

2x² + 8x +3x + 12

Simplify

2x² + 11x + 12

To check the answer, you could factor this trinomial back into a pair of binomials.
