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

I need help on 4, 5, and 6.
Ahat [919]

Answers and Explanations:

4. They do not have a proportional relationship. For the first 3 sets, you can multiply x by 2.5 to get y. But that does not work for 8 and 18, so there is no proportional relationship between x and y.

5. Yes. For equilateral triangles, the side length is equal to the perimeter divided by 3, the number of sides. Vise versa, the side length times 3 equals the perimeter. If the side length is 3 in, multiply by 3 to get 9 in, the diameter.

6. Yes. it is proportional. X times 80 equals Y. In this case, in 8 hours, 640 tickets were sold.

When dividing the polynomial 3x3 - 5x2 - 4x + 4 by (x - 2), the remainder is 0, making (x - 2) a factor.
